I'm not discussing spiritual experiences at all. Separating the category of "spiritual experiences" from "religions" gives more granularity. Those experiences do not necessarily lead to religions, nor is it necessary for a religion to be based on any spiritual experience.
Indoctrination is a requirement of religion, it is not a requirement of spiritual experience. Those concepts upon which spiritual experiences are based are emphatically -not- the same concepts as those upon which religions are based.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
