    Spiritualism and religion are often confused but have distinct definitions. Spiritualism emphasizes individual inner experience and personal growth, while religion focuses on adherence to specific beliefs and practices. Spiritualism is seen as more flexible and open-minded compared to the more rigid and dogmatic nature of religion. Both share a belief in a higher power but differ in their views on community, the afterlife, and emphasis on personal experience versus prescribed beliefs and practices.

    SPIRITUALISM

    VS RELIGION

    NAME: BARNASHIKHA SHARMA


    CHOUDHURY

    ROLL NO. 2282034

    SEMESTER: 2nd
    INTRODUCTION

    Spiritualism and Religion are often used


    interchangeably, but they have distinct
    definitions. Spiritualism is a belief system that
    emphasizes the inner experience of an individual
    with a higher power. Religion is a set of beliefs
    and practices based on the worship of a higher
    power.
    CORE BELIEFS

    Spiritualism emphasizes individual experience


    and personal growth. Religion emphasizes
    adherence to specific beliefs and practices.
    Spiritualism is often seen as more flexible and
    open-minded, while religion is seen as more
    rigid and dogmatic.
    COMMUNITY
    Religion often includes a community aspect, with
    regular gatherings for worship and social events.
    Spiritualism may have less of a community
    aspect, but still places an emphasis on finding
    like-minded people for support and growth.
    AFTERLIFE

    Religion often has specific beliefs about the


    afterlife, such as heaven or hell. Spiritualism may
    have a more open-ended belief about the
    afterlife, with a focus on the continuation of the
    soul and spiritual growth beyond physical death.
    SIMILARITIES
    Despite their differences, both spiritualism and
    religion share a belief in a higher power or divine
    force. Both also seek to provide a framework for
    understanding the world and one's place in it.
    CONCLUSION
    In conclusion, while spiritualism and religion have distinct differences, they both
    offer valuable perspectives on spirituality and personal growth. Whether one
    chooses to follow a specific religion or embrace a more individualistic spiritual
    path, the important thing is to find what resonates with oneself and supports
    personal growth.
