I know what I would like ‘Secular Spirituality’ to mean: Secular as in non-ecclesiastical – not associated with a church or religion. And spirituality as the part of the human experience that is beyond the causally-closed realm of logic and science.
By coming up with my personal definition, I realize that I have fallen into my own trap and associated Secular Spirituality with New Age thought. (Or as I have recently seen it referred to as newage thought. ‘newage’ rhymes with sewage.) Obviously, I have some resentments here I have to let go of. For all the silliness of pyramid power, healing crystals, and chakra balancing underwear, some real inquisitiveness and acceptance has come out of the new age movement. I just need to get over myself – yet again. Sigh, my mood ring is all green and icky.
