What is spirituality and what is its purpose?
Spirituality, in reality, is refined and purified religion. It is more an individual, personal pursuit and enrichment than otherwise. A spiritual person always looks to his mind, intelligence and ego, to refine and enrich them at every step. It is thus a full-fold, all-time pursuit rather than piecemeal, time-bound or short-lived, as religious practices are.
Spirituality has the aim of accessing the inner personality and strengthening it at every stage. It does not look to external factors for leading it.
