Spiritual experiences are moments when individuals feel a deep connection to something greater than themselves, often described as a sense of peace, unity, or transcendence. These experiences can occur during meditation, prayer, or while engaging with nature, and may lead to feelings of awe or enlightenment. People often report changes in their perception of reality and a heightened sense of purpose. Such experiences can be influenced by various factors, including cultural background, personal beliefs, and practices like yoga or mindfulness. They may also be associated with specific religious traditions, such as Christianity, Buddhism, or Hinduism, where individuals seek a deeper understanding of their existence and the universe.
