Naturalism is a philosophical doctrine. It is opposed
to idealism in its interpretation of reality.
Naturalism is concerned with “natural self” or “real
self”. It contends that the ultimate reality is matter,
and not mind or spirit.
Naturalism does not believe in spiritualism. It denies
the existence of a spiritual universe — the universe
of ideas and values.
