It includes chapters that: put survey data on this growing group in context; clarify definitional issues in the study of spirituality in general and metaphysical spirituality in particular; and assess the networks, conferences, rituals, festivals, retreat centers and periodicals recently developed by metaphysicals. The contributors discuss characteristic practices of mental healing and meditation, and show the reach of metaphysical ideas into public spaces and popular media cultures. One particular chapter also addresses the growing controversy over the legitimacy of metaphysical individuals and movements that appropriate elements of Native American and Asian religious beliefs and practices to enrich or sustain their own practice. This rich collection appeals to students, researchers, professionals and the layperson interested in knowing more about the history and more importantly the direction that American metaphysical religion is taking. 001443265 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed December 28, 2021). 001443265 650_0 $$aNew Age movement$$zUnited States. 001443265 650_0 $$aSpirituality$$zUnited States. 001443265 650_0 $$aMetaphysics. 001443265 650_6 $$aNouvel Âge (Mouvement)$$zÉtats-Unis. 001443265 650_6 $$aSpiritualité$$zÉtats-Unis. 001443265 650_6 $$aMétaphysique. 001443265 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xReligion. 001443265 651_6 $$aÉtats-Unis$$xReligion. 001443265 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001443265 7001_ $$aSilk, Mark,$$eeditor. 001443265 7001_ $$aWhite, Christopher,$$eeditor. 001443265 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tFuture of metaphysical religion in America.$$dCham : Springer, [2022]$$z3030799026$$z9783030799021$$w(OCoLC)1253476851 001443265 830_0 $$aBoundaries of religious freedom.$$pRegulating religion in diverse societies. 001443265 852__ $$bebk 001443265 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-79903-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001443265 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1443265$$pGLOBAL_SET 001443265 980__ $$aBIB 001443265 980__ $$aEBOOK 001443265 982__ $$aEbook 001443265 983__ $$aOnline 001443265 994__ $$a92$$bISE
