Hello ecotrainers! Smiles🤗.... Am super happy to be part of this discussion. At first I was wondering what could have led to this amazing topic but after taking a deep thought I realized truely that there is a spiritual side to life. We can decide to admit or discard but time and again this reality stares us in the face and somehow we all have our interpretation to this reality.

Spirit.

I wouldn't like to delve deep into his topic without first touching this aspect of "Spirit". There is no way we can sufficiently talk about spiritually by neglecting this key word in the term "Spirituality". I reffered to my dictionary to get a simple definition of what a spirit is and what I got is this....a spirit is any supernatuaral being which can be good or bad. It's can also be referred to as Ghost,I just paraphrased anyways.
From this it is clearly stated that a spirit is an entity whose ability or make up is beyond the natural and could be good or bad.
Today we hear words like "evil spirit" or "Holy Spirit"... It only points to the fact there are good Spirits and these spitit sponsor good activities and that we also have bad or evil spirit which sponsors evil activities. Although we can't see them but we see their act but you know man has always found a way of explaining occurrences that are glaring and obviously beyond the natural laws of nature just to deny the existence of these spirit or their activities and like I will always say, everyone is entitled to his or her opinion.

I personally believe Spirits exist and I am of the belief that man has a spirit too and that is because He was created by a Spirit (God),in fact some other people will conclude saying man is a spirit. Don't forget I said we are all entitled to our opinions and belief. According to the Holy book which is my guide,it is stated there that there is a spirit in man, man also possess a body and have a soul.

Here I will like to do a further breakdown on what I've said so far. Since man is said to posses a spirit ,soul and body,what then are these compartment meant for? I will explain.
Man is a unique being really and these compartment or features are what really made him unique in the sense that with His body he can relate with the things around,the soul serves as the seat of emotion, thought and will and this helps him in reasoning and in making decisions he feels are rational while the spirit helps him connect with his creator which is obviously a Spirit. We can see from this explaination that man has the ability to connect with the divine,with being, entities and things beyond his physical environment.

In a nutshell Spirituallity is an all encompassing word that tends to explain man's every activity to connect with the divine and in this case,God. And in an attempt to do this many has devised different means all over the world under he umbrella "Religion" just to get in touch with something beyond the natural (spiritual).

I stated earlier that there are good spirits and there are also evil spirits, people connect with these spirit whether consciously or unconsciously. Religion plays an active role in consciously connecting people spiritually,I would have loved to say few things about he unconscious kind of connection but that wouldn't be necessary as it is not an integral part of the discussion,forgive me.

I appreciate the fact that this subject aims to get our personal view of what this subject means to us. It therefore means every view,suggestion and opinion is not subjective. We all have a way we see it and understand it but am glad am given an opportunity to share in this commuinty what I understand about this subject. Thanks to this awesome commuinty for the privilege and to my dear reader for reading through.

Best regards
