Religion and Spirituality: Questions, Beliefs, and Everyday Practice

Welcome to the Religion and Spirituality section. This is where we explore beliefs, doubts, rituals, and personal experiences without judging. You will find clear articles, honest interviews, and useful explainers that help you understand faith and nonfaith in real life. Expect short guides on rituals, plain-talk pieces on secularism, and first-person stories about searching for meaning.

We cover big topics like belief systems, ethical questions, and how communities practice their faith. You will also read about nonreligion, doubt, atheism, and how people handle family pressure when they change beliefs. For example, one feature asks what it feels like to be an atheist in India and captures social reactions, humor, and small victories.

What you'll find here

Practical pieces: how to observe festivals respectfully, how to ask questions in mixed-faith families, and simple ways to explore meditation. Opinion and debate: short, clear takes on hot issues so you can form your own view without jargon. Personal stories: honest accounts from people who left faith, deepened it, or found quiet spiritual practices.
