About this deck
A growing category of modern life: people who have left, or never joined, organised religion, but who pursue contemplative practice, ethical commitment, and a sense of meaning that earlier generations would have called religious. The "spiritual but not religious." The seculars-with-a-practice. The post-Christian, post-Jewish, post-anything seekers who do not want the institutions but do want the depth. Key sections include: Secular Spirituality.; Opening What this is.; Chapter I Defining the territory.; Chapter II The rise of the "nones."; Chapter III Where it came from.; Chapter IV Mindfulness.; Chapter V Secular Buddhism.; Chapter VI The Stoic revival.; Chapter VII Sam Harris.; Chapter VIII Alain de Botton..
