Social, emotional & psychological agitation was experienced worldwide but was heightened manyfold, for those that survived the deadly virus of COVID-19. Spirituality has been found to be a predictor of psychological well-being, in many researches that have highlighted rare but important findings for victims of life-threatening diseases and general folk alike. The current study attempted to explore spirituality as a correlate of psychological well-being amongst the survivors of COVID-19. This research study’s sample included 76 survivors (N=76) from the Indian state of Haryana.
