    Abstract:
    e popular idea, especially among the young, is that religion and spirituality are things of the old age. We generally think that spirituality is a post-retirement plan; something which has to be enjoyed with the gratuity, provident fund, and pension that you get after retirement. This is not true. Spirituality is something we need when we are living the life, not just at the end of it. When you purchase a computer, a car, or a refrigerator, or some such thing, it comes with a manual. This manual tells you how to handle the equipment—this instruction is meant for those who do not know much about machines—how to operate the equipment, and so on and so forth. This manual also tells you what to do when something goes wrong; it helps us troubleshoot.
