Abstract

Across all cultures and traditions, people describe spirituality as a dimension of experience that goes beyond the obvious way of perceiving reality as made up of separate physical objects. Buddhism talks about no-self or emptiness, while the Yogic tradition talks about true self or fullness. Abrahamic religions talk about the Creator or the Ground of Being. “Non-religious but spiritual” people might talk about “Awareness,” or nature, or Reality with a capital „R‟. The truth is that all seem to point to a common unitive or absolute principle that goes beyond words and this common principle is always apprehended and expressed through the filter of the individual‟s unique culture and history with language and belief system. Present research work is an attempt to explore the spiritual meditation philosophy and thereafter studying the interrelationships amongst various challenges towards adoption of spiritual metrics due to nature of spirituality . These interrelationships have been study with the help of ISM methodology .
