Is Spirituality Irrational?
mrzgraphics8y10

Hello everybody!

Thank you for this post! I enjoyed following the suggested analogy between spirituality and hearing music. I do not, however, totally agree with considering spirituality as "believing in God". I am an atheist and rationalist. Personally, I define spirituality as the endeavour towards discovering oneself and understanding his/her life purpose. For me, spirituality is tightly bound to aiming towards achieving a high-consciousness state. And I believe that along this journey, the person would experience the so-called subjective experiences. The essence of my comment is associated with what some people would call "post-rationalism". By the way, I would love to know what you think about this notion of post-rationalism?

Kind regards,

Reda
