Spirituality (From a Buddhist Perspective)
Episode 137
Saturday, 22 November, 2025
Spirituality is a complex and sometimes convoluted concept to discuss. How would the Buddha explain spirituality? In this podcast, Bhante Sathi explains that spirituality is not tied to religion or belief in a higher power but to cultivating a calm, compassionate, and generous mind. True spirituality is universal and arises from inner qualities rather than cultural or religious identity. Bhante clarifies that generosity and compassion are practices done for one’s own inner peace, not for others. Over time, these qualities deepen through intentional repetition. Spiritual growth comes from examining where we fall short and how we can use mindfulness to transform the inner self. Ultimately, spirituality develops through practicing equality, removing conditions in how we view others, and consistently choosing actions that cultivate a peaceful mind.
