In philosophy, "spiritualism" is the doctrine that the spirit exists as distinct from matter, or that "spirit is the sole reality" (for example check the Oxford Pocket Dictionary of Current English/ 2009, originally published by Oxford University Press/ 2009). Therefore the basic philosophical product over here is "the power of the spirit" and "the qual reason why the process of thought evolved from the language and not the opposite)

Its really too confusing for me dear beetle, the state or quality of being spiritual is fine,
but what does it really mean? It might be defined as 'sensitivity or attachment to
religious values', but this is certainly no good, for others like FMF, 'believe without
belonging,' or professing any religious affinity, for others spirituality is something that is
found deep within oneself. It is their way of loving, accepting and relating to the world
and people around them. Thus it appears to me that spirituality is the way or manner
in which we lead our life from the values we have come to discern as pertaining to the
spirit. Philosophy from what I have read also deals with ethics, morality, spirituality etc,
but it is wholly unconcerned with what one does with the results of ones examination of
these ideas and instead seeks solely to attempt to understand them.
