Summary: Buddhism or Buddhist teaching itself is a spiritual philosophy. It is very much spiritually oriented. Therefore in order to practice Buddhism or the Buddhadharma, one has to be very spiritual.Personally, I would prefer to say "Buddhist teaching" rather than "Buddhism" because it is not at all an "ism" and I feel that it is not right to call it "ism" because this gives a very strong religious connotation or definition, which is not good. Buddhist teaching or Buddhadharma is totally oriented by spirituality rather than religiosity. So we need to develop a deep understanding of what Buddhadharma is and then try to practice it.
