VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Host: What are the distinctions between and religion? How are they related? Rock Schuler: Spirituality is being in touch with the spiritual core of who we are human beings, is to be aware of the spiritual dimension of the universe, to know God s presence in life, in every event of life permeating creation. Religion is when spiritual people come together to share their spiritual journeys, to support one another in their spiritual journeys and to make their spiritualities meaningful for people beyond themselves alone. Spirituality really impels fundamentally, the experience of one person. Religion is a community of people coming together, sharing their spirituality for the sake of other people. Healthy religious communities are communities where spiritual people give up themselves for the well being of others, for the life of others. Spirituality is wellspring of life and vitality that feeds religion. Without spirituality, religion becomes dead or self serving or even abusive and corrupt and yet religion is the way that spirituality reaches beyond the individual to be of real service to other human beings as people gather to help on another on the spiritual journey and to share their journeys with others who might be in need
