A spiritual experience is a profound moment where individuals feel a deep connection to something greater than themselves. This can involve feelings of peace, unity, or transcendence, often leading to a sense of purpose or understanding. Such experiences can occur in various contexts, including nature, meditation, or during religious practices. These experiences can be subjective and vary widely among individuals. Some may describe them as encounters with the divine, while others might interpret them as moments of self-discovery. Common elements include feelings of awe, love, and interconnectedness, often associated with practices in religion, meditation, or nature.
