To me, spirituality is like a large umbrella with many holes ... :) Some people get sheltered, others get wet.

The point of spirituality may be different for each person, and I can only speak for myself. Spirituality to me is and oasis in and otherwise chaotic world. I do quiet meditation and go on camping trips to nurture myself spiritually beyond what devised methods society may have established for worship. I know in my heart that if not for my own spiritual presence, and me being conscious of it, my physical body would have died a long time ago. Spirituality renders more benefits to me than I can list. For me there is not just one point to it, rather it is all encompassing. It is a lifestyle.

The 'point' of spirituality, IMO, is to realize one's spiritual nature, which is in union with all that is. It is to realize our infinite aspect.

Spirituality to me,

Waking up.

A search for more meaning to life,

Learning,knowledge,evolving-the journey,not the destination.

Redemption from the suffering of duality.

Free from all attachments and addictions.

Non conforming and non partaking and contributing to this duality system.

Exiting the system and beating life to the tune of your own drum.

Point of spirituality is the essence of life - real meaning -direction-purpose of life .

I would use Ant's expressions to provide my view of it .

Redemption from the suffering of duality/ Improving quality of joy in duality

Free from all undue attachments and addictions.

Non conforming and non partaking and contributing to this wrong unreasonable duality system.

Exiting the wrong systems and beating life to the tune of your own drum.

Creating and innovating new system reforms in our small ways

From my previous answer, one might ask, "What is the point of spiritual union?"

What is meant by spiritual union is to realize our Oneness, our connectedness with everyone and every thing. To realize this is to realize the reality of our inter-dependence - it is to realize the basis of true morality through understanding, empathy and compassion. It is to learn to make a better world for everybody.

This is what every great spiritual leader throughout history was on about.

None if you ask me. Spirituality is just a man-made concept consisting of guidelines on how to live one's life. Pretty much like any religion.
