Are Spirituality and Religion Different?

Question: Are Spirituality and Religion Different?

I don't understand much of the philosophy of devotional service because of my limitation in thought process. However, I would request you to please help me to understand the difference between spirituality and religion. Are they same or different and how ?

Answer: Genuine Religion and Spirituality Are the Same

Genuine religion and spirituality are one the same. But the pseudo-religion that masquerades nowadays as religion is in fact a covered form of materialism. The pseudo-religionists worship God, but they do it for a material purpose to advance their material sense gratification. Therefore they are not true religionists or spiritualists. They are instead pseudo-religious materialists.
