Abstract
THE THEORETICAL SPIRITUAL LIFE AND RELIGION
Although it is said that there is a spiritual structure of religious conceptions in the studies carried out, it is worth noting that spirituality is a door that opens from within this spiritual structure. It can be said that religion, which is seen as a superstructure institution, is involved in relationships in all areas of life.
It is seen that religion and spirituality were confused in the early periods, but as we come to the present, this idea has been abandoned. However, it is also worth noting that spirituality does not have a purely spiritual meaning, but is a concept that has a corresponding meaning in practice.
It can be stated within the scope of the study that spirituality is relational by nature, that it has a connection between religion and moral values, that it has an impact on shaping lived experiences, and that it is necessary to employ the concepts of prejudice and Decency in understanding. In addition, the study is based on the problematic of creating a model of how religious and spiritual elements contained in the field of faith can be evaluated relationally.
