Spirituality is the general belief in a power great than one’s self, and typically this power is supernatural in origin.

Religion may have a _basis_ in spirituality, but it is more the codified systems, structures, and rules associated with expressing a particular spirituality.

So, for example, an abstract belief in God would just be spirituality; Catholicism, with all of its rules and conditions around that belief in God, is a religion.
