“In it’s healthy form, Postmodern spirituality deconstructs the cultural baggage and prerational superstitions of Magic and Mythic and expands Rational natural-world, sensual spirituality into a deeper valuing ofboth the inner world of the psyche and the universal truths and states of consciousness made available through the still valid perennial
practices at the heart of those traditions.
Instead we have what I call spiritual kitsch – a kind of lowest common denominator combining of angels, aliens, karma, positive thinking, narcissistic fantasies about manifestation and how the universe works, extra-dimensional spirit guides, astrology, psychics and everything happening for some cosmic reason – all supported by an imaginary new
science that is really just a self-referential reflection of the marketing material that keeps this segment of the economy chugging along at ever greater profits.”
