Religion and Spirituality - One and the Same?

"We must stop confusing religion and spirituality. Religion is a set of rules, regulations and rituals created by humans, which was suppose to help people grow spiritually. Due to human imperfection religion has become corrupt, political, divisive and a tool for power struggle. Spirituality is not theology or ideology. It is simply a way of life, pure and original as was given by the Most High of Creation. Spirituality is a network linking us to the Most High, the universe, and each other…"

Let's take a Self Honest look at what is being Said here and find a way to Consider it where it Considers what is Best for All... In the first part of this statement - the Person is exposing how Religion has become a Means to Control and enslave People - due to Humanity's "Imperfection" Then - the person goes on to explain how Spirituality is 'better' then Religion because apparently it is a 'way of life' given by 'the Most High of Creation'. Now what we know is within Religion - is that people's 'beliefs' of Religion also comes from what they claim to be as the 'most high' - the Word of God - the father of Creation - so from this we can See that already Religion and Spirituality are the same - as they support the Idea of a 'greater force' that has created us and all Life - and through this it's about changing the way we live/believe in order to live in a way that is 'attune' to Life. This is a huge Red Flag as we can see that through both beLIEfs we are 'needing' to accept a 'higher force' that has created us and that we are Imperfect - in that we are able to be corrupt, and create separation. This also allows for one not to Take Self Responsibility for what Self Is - but that it was the 'Creator' that has created us this way. I once beleived in both Religion and Spirituality - in that i believed that both were based on the foundation of the same truth. I believed that there was a God/Creator - and that all was how it should be, and Life was moving according to 'plan'. This is pure deception, as I can see now that I was only accepting myself and the World the way it is - and if we dare to take a look at the Greater Picture - it is NOT okay and is Unacceptable. How do we change this statement to be in the Starting point of What is Best for All? Simply = Remove the idea/belief that there is a 'higher power' in control of our lives and Everything - and get back to Reality. Where in Reality we can see that No God is helping - but only Hurting - as no One is taking Responsibility for what is going on on Earth. We are more than Capable of Creating a World that is BEst for all - where All live in Abundance - Equal Money - Heaven on Earth - but it is through our acceptance of a God and being 'imperfect' that we accept our own limitations. I no longer accept this of Myself. Considering looking at statements that do not Support ALL LIfe = and only support Self Interest/Separation of Humans. Consider finding ways to Exist where we become Practical Beings taking care of ourselves and others - finding Solutions to ourselves and this World. This is what i Have found within Desteni - A wake up Call and Call to Action. Creating Equality within myself to Create it in the World.
