Do not let any prejudice you may have against spirtual terms deter you from honestly asking yourself what they might mean to you . Bill W.
The Opening to the spiritaul world.
AA is a spiritual prgram and spiritual way of life. Even the first half of the first step, "We admitted we were powerless over alcohol," is a spiritual experience. An AA member needs more than physical capabilities: he needs the use of his faculties as a human being to hear the message, to think about it, to review the effects of the past, to realize, to admit, and to accept. These processes are activities of the mind, which is part of the spirit.
