What, for you, is the purpose of spirituality or religion?

Posted on Aug 18th, 2007 by Shelby : Visionary Shelby
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 17, 2007:

Spirituality, rather than "giving" me a purpose in life, is the way I choose to live out my purpose.  My connection to the divine spark within me allows me to experience life more fully and consciously.  Since I believe that God simply is, that all is God and God is all, I do not know that religion is the way to achieve consciousness.  It can be a great point of entry, giving people a glimpse of what spirit is, but we must move beyond that place of being led by others, and learn to follow that path that only we can travel, led by spirit, led by ourselves.
