Embrace Spirituality before Religion

By Fadaka O' Adetu


The human soul never stops searching for answers to the true meaning of life. Life in itself is a mystery that can be truly understood only by asking questions. The human soul is a powerful force that if truly developed can serve as a powerful medium between the earthly space and the supernatural. Until the soul finds true meaning and freedom, life can be miserable. The place of religion is to help you find and connect to the supernatural through obedience to a set of practices and beliefs. The purpose of religion from the onset however was to help you find spirituality. The human excesses, politics, vested interests have paralyzed the power of religion. So many things are happening in the world right now and this is one of the reasons you need to give more attention to your soul. Religion is good for the socio-culture of humans but only spirituality can help you find the true meaning to life. Spirituality is humanity. Spirituality is the expression of who you are and how you connect to other people, nature, and forces. Spirituality is inbuilt for every human. Religion can teach you what to do and in some cases create the necessary atmosphere but it is your responsibility to allow your soul to find spirituality. So how can you train your soul to embrace spirituality more than religion?

1. Be intentional about it.

2. Keep yourself away from all activities at least for 30minutes every day to free your mind and enjoy nature

3. Read books and ask questions. The more you ask the more you know

4. Spend time with the scriptures.

5. Keep the right energy around you

The list can go on and go but the point you should pick from this is ‘the more you pay more attention to yourself and the world around you, the more you will find out how powerful you are’.
