RATIONALE
Spirituality is a broad concept with room for many perspectives. In general, it includes a
client's guiding spiritual beliefs and values, which would have therapeutic benefit. Some
may find that their spiritual life is intricately linked to their association with a church,
relationship with God or a higher power. Still others seek meaning through their
connections to nature or art. Like your sense of purpose, your personal definition of
spirituality may change throughout your life, adapting to your own experiences and
broader concept. Religion and spirituality are not the same thing, nor are they entirely
distinct from one another. Spirituality is about seeking a meaningful connection with
something bigger than yourself, which can result in positive emotions, such as peace,
with being a person whose highest priority is to be loving to yourself and others. A
spiritual person cares about people, animals and the planet. A spiritual person knows
that we are all One, and consciously attempts to honor this Oneness. A spiritual person
is a kind person. A relationship with God, a higher power or other mystical beings, is
reported to be a source of strength for people. It creates a belief in individuals that they
would be able to cope with any adversity in life. A study of what are the perspectives of
pursuit of world class academic exellence and the upliftment of the quality of life of
those we touch. Knowing that Southwestern University PHINMA , it caters students with
different religion with different spiritual beliefs . The researchers wanted to know what
are the perspectives of students in their own belief or religion . In this study, researchers

they view their religion and how they act based on their belief .
THEORETICAL – CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
1988). This approach fits well with a cognitive-behavioral orientation in which human
experiences. It is a circular relationship in which beliefs give rise to values, which inform
our behaviors, resulting in an experiential impact upon the spiritual belief system. There
is no beginning or end to this circle, at different times any of the phases may be the
catalyst toward a change in the belief system. Beliefs are the core component of
spirituality framework. Spiritual beliefs are driven by a humanistic innate need for
seeking meaning and purpose (Frankl, 1967; Maslow, 1968). In a qualitative study,
Canda (1988a) examined the spirituality of “helpers” across major religious orientations.
An area of agreement was in the belief that there is an innate need for humans to
search for meaning and purpose in their lives. A spiritual person has been on a quest
for meaning and purpose, and emerges with confidence that life is deeply meaningful
and that his or her own existence has purpose (Elkins, Hedstrom, Hughes, Leaf, &
Saunders, 1988). While behaviors may be more easily measured than beliefs it would
be difficult to quantify a differential spirituality ‘score’ for various acts (e.g., prayer verses
reference to the individual’s own belief system. As such, preparing tea may be very
spiritual to a person within a Zen tradition and inconsequential to others. For the above
reasons the belief system has been chosen as a logical point of departure for the
values, behaviors, and experiences). The author proposes that first the spiritual belief
component should be conceptualized and validated, then the other components of the

Review of Related Literature This study seeks to determine the various factors that
affect the spirituality beliefs of the 1st year college students of SouthWestern University
2007). MacDonald . (2015) sees how spirituality can be treated distinctly from religiosity,
The study suggests the students or the respondents are reappropriating their religious
and spiritual search by moving away from organized religion or what they perceive
organized religion to be. The study states that students are shifting the ways in which
they think about religion and preserve their freedom to find their own way. In analyzing
the findings of the study ,one may conclude that students at one end of the college-age
formal requirements. Yet, they sense that this is not an adequate concept of f being
religious, and, therefore, desire to move away from organized religion. This may be part
of the reason why these students say they are not religious. Due to their perception of
what it means to be religious rather than associate themselves with organized religion,
many of the students in the study are probing their own authenticity and sincerity.
