The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to spirituality:
Spirituality may refer to an ultimate or an alleged immaterial reality,[1][need quotation to verify] an inner path enabling a person to discover the essence of his/her being, or the “deepest values and meanings by which people live.”[2][need quotation to verify]
Spiritual practices, including meditation, prayer and contemplation, are intended to develop an individual's inner life; spiritual experience includes that of connectedness with a larger reality, yielding a more comprehensive self; with other individuals or the human community; with nature or the cosmos; or with the divine realm.[3]
