Great interview!
Yes, this is a recurring question I get: how can I be spiritual if I'm an atheist?
People seem to feel ashamed to say publicly that they meditate or that they have had a deep moment of connection to the universe while hiking or while traveling.
I have always believed that spirituality tries to answer our classic questions about ourselves like who am I? what am I? why am I here?. Those questions are natural and we all have them. The thing is we almost never believe we can answer them without religion.
For what I have read in books and science outlets, a lot of science people are spiritual and the marvel at the magic and profoundness of the Universe. Regardless of religion, spirituality is part of the experience of being human.
Thank you for the link, Jundo.
