to me spiritual is the journey of finding some sort of connection with oneself and a higher being, religion is the worship of man made doctrine and ritual

Religious people live by a set of guidelines and spirituality is a sense of being spiritual whether you followed some guidelines or not.

Spirituality transcends all religions. Spirituality is the belief that we are more than just a random set of elecrical impulses deciphered by our brain and that we have an existance outside of our human body.
