Movies about space raise those questions of what we're doing here and that inevitably introduces a spiritual dimension.

You know what I like to do on a Sunday morning? Clean my house. I really enjoy it it's my ritual. I require tidiness actually. I have to have everything spotless before I can relax.

But you know they don't enjoy the dinner hour together. It's just not as much of a ritual at night and it's interesting. I think the ritual is taking place perhaps more in the morning.

Spirituality does two things for you. One you are forced to become more selfless two you trust to providence. The opposite of a spiritual man is a materialist. If I was a materialist I would be making lots of money doing endorsements doing cricket commentary. I have no interest in that.

A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.

It's a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money.

I'm an actress and mom and I probably don't have enough of an active spiritual life. And I don't know why people run around calling themselves by the names of religions when they don't actually practise them.

Just as a candle cannot burn without fire men cannot live without a spiritual life.

The legal system is often a mystery and we its priests preside over rituals baffling to everyday citizens.

Throughout the past there has been a lack of intimacy affection and regard for Islam by Christianity. This to a large extent has been due to a lack of knowledge of the great human and spiritual ideals for which Islam and the teachings of Islam stand.

Human relations are built on feeling not on reason or knowledge. And feeling is not an exact science like all spiritual qualities it has the vagueness of greatness about it.

Religion can make it worse. Are you supposing that if people were encouraged to believe in a transcendent reality and to be encouraged by grand rituals and music and preaching to love their neighbors then they would put jealousy and frustration aside?

It is an accepted commonplace in psychology that the spiritual level of people acting as a crowd is far lower than the mean of each individual's intelligence or morality.

I'm in awe of the universe but I don't necessarily believe there's an intelligence or agent behind it.

The fact that I can plant a seed and it becomes a flower share a bit of knowledge and it becomes another's smile at someone and receive a smile in return are to me continual spiritual exercises.

Even the highest forms of sacrificial worship present much that is repulsive to modern ideas and in particular it requires an effort to reconcile our imagination to the bloody ritual which is prominent in almost every religion which has a strong sense of sin.
