You may have heard a lot of people say that they are extremely spiritual or religious but have you ever thought of understanding what these words mean? One may be confused and think that these are both the same things. However, there is a very clear difference between the two. Religious behavior or religious practices are mostly directed towards seeking the God you believe in, following practices that have been agreed upon by a lot of other individuals, individuals learning from secret texts and holding a collective belief. On the other hand, spiritualism preaches you to not seek for somebody else, however, it urges you to seek and find your own truth, follow your own practices, have your own set of beliefs, and follow the journey of self-discovery. There are millions of people who follow the path of spirituality and millions of people who go down the religious road. These people love to travel to new places and explore how these two concepts change and evolve with time and distance. One wonderful destination for you to do this is the Andaman Islands.

Cellular Jail- Who hasn’t heard about Kala Pani, the torture ground that the Britishers used against Indians? Kalapani is also known as Cellular Jail and it is located in the Andaman Island. It has a very dark history as the Britishers used it to torture the Indian freedom fighters and politicians. However, it serves as an iconic reminder of how we received justice against the infiltrators. The walls of the jails had been carved with religious texts, prayers, and recitations that the jailed personnel used as a way of seeking hope, devotion, and peace and today it reminds visitors of how strong the power of faith and spiritualism is. You can head to this jail and get an important history lesson and also pay tribute to the souls that were sacrificed for the country. 

The Andamanese tribes- The Andaman Islands house a lot of tribes within itself. The tribal population is deeply connected with nature and it prays to it and also appreciates all of it.

However, Radha Nagar beach is slightly different from the rest, the peaceful and calming environments, and the mesmerizing and ethereal views of the calming waters serve as an amazing spot for seeking some harmony and tranquility. Visitors and locals are often seen heading to the Radha Nagar beach for a meditative session. The early morning hours and the sunset hours are perfect for one to meditate but you can also go there to do some relaxing and soul-satisfying yoga. The clear waters of Radha Nagar beach are the perfect place for spiritual minds to do some self-reflection activity and we highly recommend every tourist to visit it on their Andaman tour package.
