Abstract

The author presents a more scientifically detailed understanding of spirituality that views spirituality as an adaptive, multidimensional process rather than a rigid doctrine. Exploring spirituality in historical, psychological, and social frameworks provides a more complete picture of how spirituality serves as a source of individual meaning and social unity, as evidenced by contemporary interdisciplinary research, spirituality not only as a personal pursuit, but also a collective, historically determined practice that can shape ethical frameworks, societal norms, and ultimately human experience. It also examines the idea that spirituality, in its broadest sense, is a fundamental part of human identity and social life, revealing the complex, interconnected nature of beliefs, values, and culture.
