[people watcher]

what is "spiritual"? and how did you arrive at the conclusion that every life is spiritual?

it would appear that you jump into conclusion without any premise. and you resort to a sweeping yet vague statement so that any idea -- both in favor of your ready made conclusion -- could be used to support it. basic intellectual discipline: define your terms first so that we would know exactly what would be discussed, and what would not.

Let us define Spirituality first.

Spirituality, in a narrow sense, concerns itself with matters of the spirit, a concept closely tied to religious belief and faith, a transcendent reality, or one or more deities. Spiritual matters are thus those matters regarding humankind's ultimate nature and meaning, not only as material biological organisms, but as beings with a unique relationship to that which is perceived to be beyond the bodily senses, time and the material world. Spirituality in this sense implies the mind-body dichotomy, which indicates a separation between the body and soul. But spirituality may also be about the development of the individual's inner life through specific practices.
The spiritual is traditionally contrasted with the material, the temporal and the earthly. A perceived sense of connection forms a central defining characteristic of spirituality — connection to a metaphysical reality greater than oneself, which may include an emotional experience of religious awe and reverence, or such states as satori or nirvana. Equally importantly, spirituality relates to matters of sanity and of psychological health. Spirituality is the personal, subjective dimension of religion, particularly that which pertains to liberation or salvation (see also mysticism and esoterism) .

Spirituality and science

New Age physicist-philosopher Fritjof Capra has articulated connections between what he sees as the spiritual consequences of quantum physics.[5] Ken Wilber, in an attempt to unite science and spirituality, has proposed an "Integral Theory of Consciousness".[6]
The theoretical nuclear physicist Amit Goswami developed an spiritual interpretation of quantum mechanics. He claims that universal consciousness, not matter, is the ground of all existence, calling his theory monistic idealism.
Ervin László posits a field of information as the substance of the cosmos. Using the Sanskrit and Vedic term for "space", akasha, he calls this information-field the "Akashic field" or "A-field". He posits the "quantum vacuum" (see Vacuum state) as the fundamental energy- and information-carrying field that informs not just the current universe, but all universes past and present (collectively, the "Metaverse").[7]
Since 1954 the Institute on Religion in an Age of Science has debated the merits of combining scientific thinking with religious perspectives.

So, Life is a not static but a dynamic process and therefore, spiritual in essence.

PRINCIPLES that Every LIFE is SPIRITUAL

UNIVERSAL

1. The universe is a mirror of consciousness

PERSONAL

1. The events in your life reflect who you are.

Nothing in these statements smacks of religion; there isn't any spiritual vocabulary involved. Yet this first principle is the whole basis for saying that religion (whose root words in Latin mean "to tie back") unites the Creator with his creation. The physical world mirrors a mind; it carries intention and intelligence in every atom.

Every LIFE is SPIRITUAL

UNIVERSAL

2. Awareness is collective. We all draw it from a common source.

PERSONAL

2. The people in your life reflects aspects of yourself.

In this principle, we see the beginnings of all myth and archetypes, all heroes and quests. The collective psyche shares a level of awareness that goes beyond individuals. When you see other people as aspects of yourself, you are actually seeing faces of mythical types. We are one human being wearing countless masks. When all the masks are stripped off, what remains is essence, the soul, the divine spark.
