The Path to a Spiritual Society
The Way of St. James, the New Age movement, the cult of angels, Feng Shui - the individual search for spirituality is expressing itself in new forms of social religiosity. At its core lie transcendental experiences that reach deep into daily life instead of remaining limited to free congregations or esoteric circles. Simultaneously, churches are also adopting elements of popular culture. Hubert Knoblauch presents a comprehensive discussion of the current spectrum of ecclesiastic, popular, and esoteric spirituality.
