What Does It Mean to Be Spiritual?  

What Does It Mean to Be Spiritual?  

By: Dr. Roger Landry, MD, MPH

Dr. Harold Koenig, a physician at Duke University and an international authority on spirituality and health, tells us that spirituality is the “personal quest for understanding answers to the ultimate questions about life, about meaning, and about relationship to the transcendent.

”What is particularly appealing about this definition is that he believes it is a quest and not so much a destination. Seeking answers to questions such as, Why am I here? What is my purpose? What is the meaning of my existence?

This constitutes that quest. Our aging journey is a metamorphosis for many of us – a call to search for meaning, value, peace and, if we’re successful on this journey, joy. Enjoy the quest!
