Religion encompasses the tangible aspects, while spirituality delves into the intangible and metaphysical realms. Comparable to rain and wind, which both manifest on Earth yet differ in visibility—rain perceivable and wind unseen. During the storm, the wind steers the rain, illustrating its existence and trajectory despite its hidden nature.
Religion is a kindergarten. Spirituality is a university. So, is it better to remain in kindergarten all our life and learn the ABC about God till we die? If we want to do that, we can, and many of us do it. Many people are stuck in religion right through their life, they don't go beyond religion. We don't have to change our religion. Spirituality is not another religion, it is a graduation beyond the ABC of theology, of God and religion. Therefore, if you want to achieve the ultimate goal and realize you are the Soul, you need spirituality. You don't have to change your religion, but you have to go beyond to realize the truth, to be enlightened.

It's up to the individual.
The difference between religion and spirituality is: "This is what you tell me to believe," and "This what I believe." Religion is the standard written doctrine of a group. Spirituality is the personal belief of the individual. In general it is based on traditions and lifestyle, but personal perspective colors all aspects of the traditions giving particular relevance to one individual, but not to another.
I think that spirituality is a bigger category than religion; there are many that are "spiritual but not religious" whereas most everyone who is religious is also spiritual. So I'd say that "religion" would fall under "spirituality"!

what is the relationship between belief, knowledge, mythology, and religion.
There are no rituals in spirituality. Rituals are connected mostly to cultures and religions. They are based on mythology, on fairy tales. All religions have their own rituals, superstitions, dogmas, and fairy tales, and they advocate them. Unfortunately, they are like a kindergarten that teach children folklore and folktales. Spirituality is a university, we have to graduate beyond religion. Spirituality is not another religion, it is an advanced study, an understanding of who we are, of what God is. Spirituality leads us to self-realization and God-realization. Therefore, there is no connection between rituals and spirituality, except that rituals are part of religion which is a kindergarten of which spirituality is the university.
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.

Prapancha generally refers to the material world or the physical universe in Hindu philosophy. It is believed to be the realm of illusion and impermanence, overshadowed by the spiritual reality of Brahman. The concept highlights the transient and deceptive nature of worldly existence.
Spirituality is the way you approach God or whomever you worship. Religion is the outward manifestation of what you believe, including use of specific symbols and rituals. Spirituality is more inward. As an example, the Pharisees had religion but they had very little spirituality. They had added so much to the law that it was impossible to meet the standards. They had lost the intent God wanted for the Israelities to be given the law, to be close to Him. Instead they had distanced themselves from God by their traditons and rules.
Culture includes arts and lifestyle, both of which are greatly affected by religion. Religion is also shaped by the culture it's in. Spirituality is the impulse given to religion. Religion can help you develop your spiritual side.
