In other words, the spiritual life is more important that the material life. In short, transcendentalism emphasizes spiritual living (but not conventional organized religions), living close to nature, intuition, and individualism.I believe that all great minds in this world were transcendentalists.I believe that the traditions practiced in a lot of religions have very deep and spiritual meanings, however, I also know that a good portion of the congregation have forgotten the actual meaning or never knew the actual meaning of what those traditions mean or symbolize.
