Spirituality is your belief in the positive, while religion leads you to this way of positivity. Spirituality is humanity and religion is a set of rules that help in achieving humanity.
Religion is the most wrongly defined word in society. Every religion and every scripture speaks the protocol to achieve the highest form of being that you yourself are. A set of rules that abide by the methods of awakening the God within you. Unfortunately, humans have only proved good in developing the same religion as a weapon against humanity.
Spirituality is when you are relentlessly able to walk on the path of humanity while observing the messages that your religion pronounces. Spirituality is not meditating on the intangible imaginary God. Rather it is observing the same behavior that the gods we believe in practiced. Spirituality is not being able to associate with the God rather bringing the God within you in action.
Religion, on the other hand is your actions that help you pursue humanity and the highest truth. Religion is your discipline in achieving your God in all possible situation without any differences.
Alas, people have failed over and again in deriving the true nature of Religion and used it as a source of creating differences abiding by their ego. When you fail to prove the God within you, you need a justification which today people have assumed to be their religion.
Religion teaches us about God. The moment we are born, we are born into a religion that teaches us the ABC of God; it teaches us to follow our scriptures ; it tells us how to live with God; to pray and to believe in God. However, religion is only a kindergarten; spirituality is the university. Spirituality helps us graduate; it makes us love God and to search for God, to find God. Then we arrive at the state known as self-realization and God-realization. We realize the Truth about God, that God is not a statue or a saint, God is the power that no human being can paint. God does not belong to any one religion. Religions are many but God is one. Therefore, we don't have to change our religion, but we have to go beyond religion to the university of Spirituality to realize the Truth about God.
Spirituality is from God, the truth. Religion is from mans head
Truth and Nature bind both religion and spirituality. Although religion and spirituality can be consider to start at the same beginning, they parted mid-way and end at different destinations.
Spiritual objective is to realize one own Self. Spirituality teaches self-realization. Spirituality is different from religion. Spirituality teaches that God is in your mind and actions. Spirituality teaches that your inner consciousness, which is also called conscience in the primitive stages of spirituality, is God. It distinctly differs from religious preachings which dwells on forms and names. Religion is a distraction from God and spirituality is an attraction towards God.
Spirituality and meditation are not considered science. They are considered to be alternative medicine or sometimes, religion. One can get an MBA in religion or philosophy, but not in only spirituality and meditation.

Interfaith and spirituality is going beyond fanaticism in one religion. It is going beyond blind belief in your scripture, it is trying to accept the best practices of different religions and different faiths. And realizing that God doesn't belong to a religion, God is beyond religion. Religion is man-made. God is supreme, God is omnipresent, God is the Divine Spirit, the Soul, the Atman that lives within. Therefore, we don't have to change our religion, but if we believe in interfaith and we have taken the best of all different believes and faiths, we will evolve on the path of spirituality, which is the university that helps us graduate to Self-realization and God-realization.
