'Spirituality - Gathered Inspirational Thoughts' reveals the thoughts of many authors in their responses and counter responses, and further responses by the author, to the question, "What is spirituality". An excerpt from the book, part of the original question posed, explains it better: "...Many people are confused about the meaning of the word or term, spirituality. Some believe that it merely describes a state of mind, others believe it is a state of being, yet others see it as a lifestyle, and others as something religious. Some believe it pertains only to Eastern Mysticism and esoteric beliefs. Whilst many believe that “being spiritual” puts one in a certain state of holiness, a closeness to God - with a purity of heart." When the author was faced with the question, 'What is spirituality and how does one become spiritual', it sent his mind into a tailspin, as it would most people. In attempting to answer the question, one is faced with a complex type of conundrum, or a logical complexity of thoughts, that first require untangling before one can begin to produce a meaningful and constructive answer. Trapped in living our lives in the physical realm on Earth we forget that we are spirit beings from eternity and to eternity, who each possesses a physical body and a mind/soul. Most of us believe that we are simply “people” in the animal or creature sense, each one with a personality and a soul; the soul to be saved in order to achieve eternal life. This whilst living trapped worldly lives, controlled by the World System, which includes religion, we become totally attached to materialism. Many firmly believe that this is the true and only sense of life........" What does one make of thoughts like, 'Am I a body or a mind, or a spirit; and if I am all or some of these, then how should I be spiritual?'. This prompts the question of embodiment in terms of whether one's human body contains one's mind and soul, or spirit, or whether these are separate fields of existence, or even energies.
