What is spiritualism?
Spiritualism is a belief, a religion, a way of life.It focuses on to promote an individual's experience with God.This religion is not based on to have a relationship with a particular saviour.It recognises all prophets and that have come to humankind throughout the ages, not setting one above the other.
It is a belief or a religion in that it embodies the main ideas of all religion that there is life after death, immortality and the existence of God.The difference between spiritualism and other religions is the ability through Mediumship to prove that man survives the grave, that is to say certain people called mediums are able to communicate with those who have passed over, thus furnishing conclusive evidence of their continued existence in another world.
Spiritualism is different from the world's major religion such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam etc... it is because it is recent, it doesn't have a body of theology.However it is a new religious movement with rituals, doctrinal components, a belief in a transcedent realm, and it has an experiental dimension, elements that many other religions also have.
The key ideas are:
1.Souls survive the bodily death and live in spirit world
2.These souls can communicate with the living through Mediums
3.Spirit beings are little changed from their earlier selves
4.Spirits are interested in people in the material world, what they have left behind temporarily
Whatever spiritualis may come to mean or be defined by any individual, it is a journey of unfolding one's own spirituality with the aim of bringing about transformation of the individual's spiritual qualities , morals and ethics for the betterment of self and to the benefit of all in this life.
