I so want to be sassy, but it is such a great serious question. If I think about it, it seems as if the stage where one who has been raised in the church - and taken it as a normal part of everyday experience starts to realize that not everybody goes to church, and then wondering why they do. I think that would mark the entrance into spiritual puberty.

A young man after reflecting for sometime said to himself, "Gee, is this all that there really is" and after reflecting further concluded this, "I really need to know more, and I need to do some serious research".
I was that young man, and that took place 45 years ago.
As I look back, now that you have posed this question, I would suppose that was my initial experience with "spiritual puberty".
Thanks for asking the question, and allowing me to reflect back!

congrats to V.C. for a superb answer and also pipping me to the post!! :D
i agree.
my spiritual puberty began at age 9/10 when i rejected the catholicism that i had been brought up with and began to explore the reasons why my uncle built cairns on the welsh mountains, collected stones with holes in and sat by streams!
i had always felt a strong connection with nature, it was sparked into life by his quiet interest and i have not looked back since.
excellent question, and a star for you!
brightest blessings
