Abstract

Religion and spirituality are the means to know God and to love Him through practices. Because of lack of training of religious and spiritual counsellor, they do not know how to realize the presence and power of God in healing the illness. People are simply satisfied going to Temple/Mosque/Gurudwara/ Church and involve there in prayer and alms. Religious/spiritual counselors' focus should be to suggest counselee how to serve and love God. We have various questions regarding the present and future, work, relationships and health-related problems linked with Covid. Our mind is always busy chattering and trying to cope with it. It is essential to seek online counselling to give answer of those questions which are being unanswered by the self. The advantages and disadvantages associated with online counselling are discussed in this article. Moreover, cure for psycho-spiritual illnesses linked with Covid pandemic are also discussed.
