Unlike religion, spirituality isn't tied to any organised structure or specific deities that you have to worship. It is about introspection, meditation, mindfulness practices, and being at peace within oneself and the world.

I teach Padma sadana and happiness program normal meditation sessions and consultation

religion is often organized and involves specific beliefs and practices, while spirituality is more personal and about connecting with something greater than yourself

Being religious is following gods, who are originated from the supreme power, but being spiritual is directly following the supreme power, without the middle layer.
