The following 10 questions are general enough
to be answered by all spiritual paths within Unitarian Universalism.
If each spiritual path is described using the same framework,
then comparisons and contrasts can be made more easily.

    Both kinds of participants in the Spiritual Paths Project
(those with a spiritual tradition and those without)
may find the following questions helpful
for describing and presenting their spiritual paths.
What additional questions should be asked?

1. How do you describe your form of spirituality?  Distinguish it from others.

2. What does "spirituality" include and exclude from your point of view?

3. For example, how does a "spiritual experience"
    differ from an emotional response?

4. Does your form of spirituality involve a world-view or metaphysical system?

5. Does your spirituality involve any supernatural (or non-obvious)
    beings, entities, forces, influences, or tendencies?

6. What are the benefits of your form of spirituality?

7. How does your form of spirituality deal with death?

8. Does your form of spirituality involve any ritual practices or spiritual exercises?

9. What do critics of your form of spirituality say
    —and how do you answer them?

10. If your spiritual path were mistaken or distorted in some way,
    how would you uncover the errors or recognize the distortions?
