Religion blocks all the doors of knowledge to explore truth and encourages one to rest his faith in God and salvation in external dogmas and rituals binding you so tightly that virtually one has to abandon his freedom of thought almost totally. Spirituality, on the contrary encourages one to explore any avenue in the light of knowledge for self realization/ God realization/ spiritual salvation (gnostic) and practically in the very living life under the guidance of a perfect Master/Teacher/Guru. No dogma, no ritual, no money involved, no donations and no bonding of any kind except living a clean and moral life.
In my view, in the shortest possible expression, this is the Universal truth and difference hidden between the Religion and Spirituality.
What else can I help you with?
Do every culture have some form of religion?
Religion is a belief. A belief is a perspective of the truth. It may or may not be true. Religions have followers that believe that their perspective of the truth is true. However, even though they may or may not have the correct perspective of the truth, they still think they do, so religion is a universal belief system for those people that think that their perspective of the truth is true. If there was a universal belief system for a culture, every member of the culture would have the same perspective of the truth. However no culture has members that have the same perspective of the truth so no culture has a universal belief system. Even within a religion, there a different views held by members, so religion is not the universal belief system every culture uses. Is there a universal belief system? If there is, there must be a universal truth. If there is a universal truth, the universal belief system would be the correct perspective of the truth. The universal belief system would then define what thinking is true or not true. How would you discover the universal belief system? If the truth cannot change, only our perspective of it, it would be possible to discover the universal belief system by questioning every single perspective to see if the perspective can change. If the perspective can change, it would be the wrong perspective of the truth. Whatever remained after questioning would therefore constitute the universal belief system. Has this been done before? In order to discover the universal belief system, a person would be required to make himself or herself think the thoughts of all people and either prove or disprove these thoughts. If a pattern could be found, it would be possible to fast track the discovery process. Rather than questioning every single thought, thoughts would then be part of the pattern. If differences existed between the pattern and the thought pattern in other people, the pattern may or may not be the correct perspective. The pattern of thought that remained after questioning would be the correct perspective of the truth. If two or more thought patterns remained, no universal belief system would exist. A universal belief system has been proposed to exist. By using the philosophical pillar of the point of living, two different thought patterns at the subconscious level were questioned. Only one of these thought patterns remained. (In other words, there was no point in living if the other pattern was correct). This has been proposed as the universal belief system. Any thinking outside of the universal belief system would therefore constitute a psychological disorder. If correct, this discovery has the potential to totally change the way people think about psychological disorders and mental illness.
How do transcendentalists define truth?
Transcendentalists believe that truth is derived from intuition, personal experience, and inner reflection rather than from external sources like tradition or authority. They emphasize the importance of connecting with one's inner self and nature to uncover universal truths. Truth for transcendentalists is seen as a spiritual and intuitive understanding of the world, rather than relying solely on logic or empirical evidence.
What are universal values?
Universal values are those values that are believed to be accepted by all people everywhere. Most values that are proposed ot be "universal" may be widely accepted but are not actually universal. Some have said that universal values have 3 sources, but opthers disagree. One statement of the three sourses lists them as: 1) The universality of human nature. Even thieves punish fellow thieves that steal from them. St Augustine pointed this out. 2) The origin of all things in the ONE shall we say MIND AND WILL OF GOD. 3) Related to 2 is the fact that what beauty or truth or goodness we perceive in something is really there. Bach is of higher value than rap. This is most easy to see in the writings of Dietrich von Hildebrand. An amazing document is the following "the International Theological Commission's recent paper entitled "The Search for Universal Ethics: A New Look at the Natural Law."
What is the belief that there is no universal meaning to life?
The belief that there is no universal meaning to life would be the belief that there is no universal truth. This belief is the same as atheism which also suggests that there is no universal truth or God. The absence of God suggests the absence of truth. In such a situation, mankind would be on its own. If there was a universal meaning to life it would be that life is meant to be completely happy, peaceful and satisified; not meant to be full of pain, hurt, unforgiveness, unhappiness, hate, anger, etc, It is suggested that humans are not able to create love, forgiveness, peace, happiness, compassion, self control etc through conscious effort, otherwise there would be no human that is not full of love, forgiveness, peace, happiness, compassion, self control etc as they would have already created these positive feelings. If humans do not have positive emotions and cannot create positive emotions they will never have positive emotions unless Someone creates positive emotions and a way to access these emotions. This Someone else is God, as no human is capable of creating positive feeling. No one is capable of feeling happy, peaceful and satisified on their own. As no one can feel completely happy, peaceful and satisfied on their own, no one is capable of living a life filled with good feelings on their own. Atheism denies the existence of God and in doing so suggests mankind is on its own. As humans cannot create positive emotion, the absence of a God means life occurs without the positive feelings that God creates. Life without any happiness, peace and satisifaction has no meaning therefore atheism is the belief that denies there is no universal meaning to life. This is the religionist's point of view. Atheists on the other hand do believe that humans are capable of being happy and can create love between them as an act of will, giving meaning to life, and obviating the need for gods or externally imposed truth.
