Please Define Spirituality

[Scribblenauts]

so here is a hint : follow your heart , if it is your real self, no matters what, you will have peace of mind, and if it is your false personality you'll get a bit upset, so it's a sense like conscience

The devil lies in the details of how to follow one's "heart". It may be a useful to look at some threads in the cognitive science board like
Adaptive Unconscious
Thinking, Fast and Slow

4- :D I've always wanted to ask this
I don't understand the term "wishful thinking" so can you put it simply for me please, also what OSIT means ?

Here is the cassiopedia entry on wishful thinking . Also related is the concept of sleep and the tale of the evil magician. The psychological aspect of this is covered in practical terms in the psychology threads mentioned above.

OSIT - or so I think.

I think spirituality means or is about the art, or discipline, or whatever can be called, focused only through the increase or expansion of perception through knowledge.

But I don't know if spirituality is just towards a positive aim. Because you may have lots of knowledge and apply it for evil purposes. So at least that's the idea I have about spirituality, and i tend to think that it focuses towards a positive aim, having self control, patience, discernment... but also being a person full of wishful thinking, or like a psychopath relates to perception, but aimed on an opposite way. Then we find ourselves talking about entropy and those concepts, but anyways, I think is all about perception.

Talking about spirituality, this video may be interesting, the video is called: primitive tribe meeting white man for the first time. Pretty interesting.

'Life is religion. Life experiences reflect how one interacts with God. Those who are asleep are those of little faith in terms of their interaction with the creation. Some people think that the world exists for them to overcome or ignore or shut out. For those individuals, the world will cease. They will become exactly what they give to life. They will become merely a dream in the 'past.' People who pay strict attention to objective reality right and left, become the reality of the 'Future.'

I love that quote because i've found, the more you discover about the world the more you discover about yourself, like if learning serves as a mirror. Whenever you discover something new, you can discover how you will interact with that new thing.
