Spiritualism and religion
Spiritualism is a belief system that emphasizes communication with spirits of the deceased, often through mediums, and focuses on personal spiritual experiences. It aims to provide comfort, insight, and guidance by connecting with loved ones beyond the physical world. Religion typically involves organized practices, doctrines, and rituals centered around a higher power or divine principles, providing moral guidance and community. While many religions are structured around sacred texts and traditions, Spiritualism is more experiential, emphasizing individual encounters with the spiritual realm. Both seek to explain life's mysteries and foster spiritual growth, but they differ in methods and emphasis.
