What is religious life?

What is religious life? Is it different from our daily life? Do we want to turn to religious life because we are fed up with the routine life which is terribly boring, unsatisfactory. It is because we do not understand our everyday living with all its sufferings that we think we must turn to religion and find God somewhere else. The traditional approach of all religions has been to condemn worldly life and to create a wedge between the worldly life and religious life. People from ages without understanding the day today living and the working of the mind, have been running away in search of nirvana, moksha or heaven. Without understanding the day today living it is stupid to think of what is beyond the real fact of life. We can only go from known to the unknown.
