How is spirituality (Adhyatma) relevant to my life?
Generally speaking, the happiness in your present life is always dependent upon something or the other. If your wishes are fulfilled, you are happy, and if they are not, you are frustrated. You are always in search of happiness but cannot really find permanent happiness because your happiness is dependent on sensual pleasures, and on the outside world. Your happiness is both conditional and temporary. It is simply a state of mind. Spirituality is relevant to your life because it teaches you to enjoy the unconditional and eternal joy that is within you. This inner joy is not a state of mind. It is the Pure Bliss of the Self (Atma)/ soul. Spirituality is that branch of knowledge which is concerned with the Self. It shows you the path towards realizing the Self, the nature of which is Pure Bliss. It enables you to awaken the divine potential within you and lead your daily life on a higher plane of consciousness.
