Definitions of Spirituality

There is no shortcut to Spirituality.  St. Augustine wrote that Spirituality is found through meditation, contemplation and personal reflection and that it is through the love of another person that we experience God because human love has divine love running through it. Elie Wiesel wrote that we reach God through knowledge and love. Martin Buber described relationship with God as “I and Thou.”  The immanence of God is found in human to human relationships as well the relationship established between human and God. “Both love of Creator and love of that which he has created are finally one and the same.” All relationships require an investment of time and a desire to know another.
