Religion Makes You Bow - Spirituality Sets You Free
Religion tells you to
follow an ideology and obey certain rules or you'll be punished
otherwise.
Spirituality lets you
follow your heart and what you feel it's right. It sets you free
to be what you truly are without bowing to anything that doesn't
resonate as right with you nor
to anyone because we are all 'one.'
It is all up to
you to choose what you'll honor enough to make it divine.
Religion Shows You Fear - Spirituality Shows You How to Be Brave
Religion tells you
what to fear and tells you consequences.
Spirituality makes
you aware of the consequences but doesn't want you to focus on
the fear. It shows you how to stand despite being afraid, how to
move on doing what you feel it's right despite the consequences
that may come.
It shows you how to
act on love and not on fear, it shows you how to control fear
and use the best of it.
Religion Tells You 'The Truth' - Spirituality Lets You Discover It
Religion tells you
what to believe and what is right.
Spirituality lets you
discover it by yourself and understand it in your own unique
way. It lets you connect with your higher self and see with your
own mind what truth is because the truth as a whole is same for
each one of us.
It lets you believe
in your own truth through your own perception of your
heart.
Religion Separates from Other Religions - Spirituality Unites
Them
Through our world
there are many religions and
they all preach that their story is the right story.
Spirituality sees the
truth in all of them and unites them because the truth is same
for all of us despite our differences and uniqueness.
It focuses on the
quality of the divine message they share and not on the
differences in details of the story they speak.
Religion Makes You Dependent - Spirituality Makes You
Independent
If you attend
religious events only then you are seen as a religious person
and someone who is worthy of happiness.
Spirituality shows
you that you don't need or depend on anything to be happy.
Happiness is always found deep in ourselves and only we are
responsible for it.
We are always where
we need to be and not just while attending at some events or
buildings.
Divinity is in us and
that is why we are always worthy.
Religion Applies Punishment - Spirituality Applies Karma
Religion says that if
we don't obey certain rules there is punishment that
awaits us which relies on our belief.
Spirituality lets us
understand that every action has its reaction (karma)
and realize that the punishment of our actions will be
the reaction coming from the actions we set in motion.
It relies solely on
the fundamental forces of the universe and it doesn't need you
to believe in that force to be true.
Religion Makes You Follow Other's Journey - Spirituality Lets
You Create Your Own
The foundation of one
religion is the story it tells about a God or Gods,
their journey to enlightenment and the truth they have
discovered making you follow their steps.
Spirituality lets you
walk your own journey to enlightenment and discover the
truth in your own way following what your heart tells it's right
because the truth is always the same no matter how you get to
it.
