Spirituality involves the recognition of a feeling
or sense or belief that there is something greater
than myself, something more to being human than
sensory experience, and that the greater whole of
which we are part is cosmic or divine in nature.
Spirituality means knowing that our lives have
significance in a context beyond a mundane
everyday existence at the level of biological
needs that drive selfishness and aggression. It
means knowing that we are a significant part of a
purposeful unfolding of Life in our universe.
Direct experience of truth as opposed to intellectual
knowledge is considered key in mystical experience.
