She Who Prays

The Crucible of Religion
Religion is commonly viewed through the lens of the world's religious traditions, stressing the differences, and often the conflicts, among them. The author of this book instead presents religion as a common and universal human phenomenon, based deeply in a human nature shared by all. In this view, the underlining and unifying principle of religion is a particular affirmative attitude toward life, which he presents as the Ultimate Value, and as such the key cultural constituent and defining factor of all religion. This Ultimate Value finds its expressions in various civilizations, and results in a variety of forms; these are what we know as the world's religious traditions. By analyzing the roles of both culture and civilization in their attitudes toward life, the author places religion beyond religious traditions, and shows how the latter, regardless of whether they are theistic or atheistic, draw their principles from the former, mainly by promoting the Golden Rule in its applications.

Transcendentalism can influence the beginning of a new realization in many religions. If humanity would ever accept a completely logical deity called God, Allah, etc., all borders between opposing religious factions would be eliminated and peace thereafter could be a reality. Most people have their own self attained or learned knowledge or deep religious convictions on spirituality. Many books have been written on various religious beliefs. There are many spiritual people who know that God is the rational Purity who/that does not require servitude, ritualistic prayers or a forced slavery in order for the soul to be a part of Purity for eternity. ALL religions have the same goal. A Transcendentalist is often a spiritually enlightened individual whose ultimate goal is to unite and strengthen communities or religious organization. God is the enlightenment of ALL who sincerely seek him/it.
Spirituality
It has been suggested that 'spirituality' has become a word that 'can define an era'. Why? Because paradoxically, alongside a decline in traditional religious affiliations, the growing interest in spirituality and the use of the word in a variety of contexts is a striking aspect of contemporary western cultures. Indeed, spirituality is sometimes contrasted attractively with religion, although this is problematic and implies that religion is essentially dogma, moralism, institutions, buildings, and hierarchies. The notion of spirituality expresses the fact that many people are driven by goals that concern more than material satisfaction. Broadly, it refers to the deepest values and sense of m...
