From The Winter 1997 Issue
Spirituality has become a hot topic in the popular media, but what are the roots and sources of a genuine "spiritual life?" And how does one pursue a spiritual quest when the very words "spirit" and "spirituality" mean so many different things to so many different people, and often seem so difficult to define, especially in this age of science? The answers to these questions are neither simple nor easy. CrossCurrents editors have put together a remarkable collection of ground breaking articles setting the stage for a more thoughtful approach to the issues involved. If you are interested in exploring the frontiers of spirituality, and are willing to invest some time, energy, and imagination doing so, you'll find our Winter issue well worth a visit. |
