Hinduism cannot be defined as the Religion of the Spirit. In my experience, most Hindus worship Mother Earth as the physical manifestation of the Absolute (Brahman). In my analysis, the Spirituality of the Hindu experience always includes a Material Basis to account for the relationship between man, Earth, and God.
In the study of a man, the know-er and the known are one. Man is the observer and the observed fact is that of Man’s nature. If Man has to know the truth about his true or real self, he has to understand the truth and reliability of his own cognitive powers. If the Subject called Man is identified as an Object called Soul, or Spirit, the Truth or Reality of Soul, or Spirit involves a structural/functional relationship between the Subject and its Object.

Philosophy of Medicine – Lesson. 34 – Defining Spirituality from a Study of the Laws of Thermodynamics
In a Living System, the conversion of energy into work involves the operation of Consciousness and the application of Knowledge. Consciousness or awareness is the mechanism that operates the structural and functional relationship between molecules. Consciousness is the principle by which a Living System that is thermodynamically unstable knows the fact of its own existence, it knows as to where it exists and knows as to how it is existing. Hence, Consciousness is a Spiritual mechanism as it establishes a relationship between the energy-dependent Living System and its energy-yielding provider. This is a relationship that requires use of Knowledge which is defined as the fact of knowing a range of information which is used to perform highly selective, sequential tasks under proper guidance. In the operation of a Living System, there is no random, unguided and unpredictable movement of molecules.

The Celebration of World Water Day on March 22
Water Molecule looks very simple and yet it plays a mysterious role inside all living cells. It is essential to Life and its propagation. Its Spiritual nature is revealed by its pure, original, and sweet taste it imparts apart from its role as a Chemical Compound. It is the main mode of transport of many Elements that are needed by the living organisms. Water is the Agent that leaches Nutrient Elements and Compounds from rocks and soils and makes them available for use by plants, and animals.
Man alone can describe the original, sweet taste imparted by the Water Molecule. The taste cannot be discovered in the atoms of Hydrogen and Oxygen that constitute the Water Molecule. Indians have glorified the significance of fresh water which is delivered from Heaven and the identity of the Land of Bharat is cherished as the Land where the sacred River Ganges flows.

To fully account for human existence, two distinct or separate Principles must come together to produce the harmonious singular identity called man. The issue is not about God’s gender. It is the concern of the man to account for his own earthly existence as male and female. The Father Principle is called the Originating Principle. The Mother Principle is called the Source Principle, for Mother is the Source of Matter, Energy, and Knowledge to establish Life. Father originates the creation of the human form, and Mother provides Substance, the structural and functional basis of the human form.
