"Philosophy, derived from two Greek words philein and sophia, means lover or love of wisdom (philosophia). Accordingly, philosophers “seek to understand fundamental truths about themselves, the world in which they live, and their relationships to the world and to each other.

I often quote Neale Donald Walsch’s Conversations with God:

'Religion cannot stand Spirituality. It cannot abide it. For Spirituality may bring you to a different conclusion than a particular religion — and this no known religion can tolerate. Religion encourages you to explore the thoughts of others and accept them as your own. Spirituality invites you to toss away the thoughts of others and come up with your own.'

Thus, the definition of philosophy, as an open exploration of personal answers to life’s questions, describes a spiritual journey and anyone on a spiritual journey fits the definition of philosopher."
