Criticism and Investigation on Spirituality
Abstract:
Spiritual attitude toward religion, which has been introduced as "rationality and spirituality project" by some intellectuals, is to organize the interaction between religion and the modern world and to promote cordiality between them with considering spirituality as the essence of religion. Such consideration tries to create peaceful coexistence between spiritual members of the world from any religion or cult, with considering the spiritual aspect of religion as to be original and genuine and presenting a meta-religious definition of religion. From the other hand, they try to set religion and believers free from the so-called structural limitations that they think religion imposes to them. This attitude, based on the functionalist insight, wants to explain a kind of spirituality that would be compatible with the new intellectual foundations in the modern world with neglecting the theoretical support of religion. Seemingly, despite the fact that the most important factor of the claim of the attitude is the interaction between spirituality and rationality, it is not acceptable as a rational attitude, because it is based on the propositions that is not provable with the experimental methods and its calls human for imitating and worshiping in this realm in conflict with the originality of his self-standing intellect. In addition, the components of this attitude are not compatible and coherent, thus the whole claim is dismissed. The other dimension that challenges this attitude is ineffectiveness of the theory in practice. Suffering from self-deception and the anxiety sue to ignorance about the future conditions are of the difficulties that the spiritual attitude sparks. This article analyses and investigates this attitude in various scopes such as semantics, functions, structural factor, and goals based on analyticalcritical approach to study the content and scale of its efficiency.
