I believe 'spirituality' can unite us or divide us. Having a basic, common understanding of 'spirituality' could be the first step in unity. Ah, maybe I'm just dreaming but it's a nice dream. regards |
For me, unity itself is the first step -- there are no prerequisites, like common understanding or anything else. There is no uniting or dividing; we're already One.
Having common understanding of a word or concept isn't necessary, as even conflicting understandings are aligned and free and work really well together. And... if we look at what is the purpose of these words or understandings -- the higher intention of them -- it doesn't take too much looking to find commonality.
So, I wouldn't be so interested in knowing what spirituality
is, that is: your definition of it, as I am to know what you think spirituality is
for. That's something you stated right off the bat in your OP, and I find that purpose inspiring.
