What is Spirituality?

The only person with whom I need to live all my life, is me. If I learn how to manage, empower and evolve myself on a consistent basis, I am more equipped to live life. This is the purpose of spirituality.

Thus, spirituality is not really about doing your work efficiently or offering prayers or controlling desires. Those are all coronary. What is most important aspect of spirituality is "me". It is a science of self-management.

When we buy a new equipment - say a new smart phone - we first need to learn how to use it. If I don't know how to use it, the smartest phone also can be a complete nuisance!

Our mind too is an equipment with which we connect to the world, we think, we feel. But have we ever learnt how to use the mind or what its features are. Are we using all its features even?
Spirituality is a formal training in mind-management.

Our life is a journey. And it is a strange journey. Neither are we clear about the goal nor about the path, and yet we are moving on every moment. What is our purpose here? Why are we still breathing while every moment, many are dieing? THINK. Spirituality gives us the ability to draw a road map for life.

Hence, it is first important to understand that spirituality is nor something occult or supernatural or orthodox. It is an instruction manual for life.

Reflection for the Day:
Try to figure out why you are doing everything that you are doing. What is your real purpose?
