Synopsis

Many people are intrigued by the diverse spiritual undercurrents in contemporary society while not fully appreciating their significance. An increasing number of people are now pursuing Eastern spiritual paths; others have turned to classical mythology and ancient native traditions for their spiritual perspectives. Amidst all this diversity there is a seemingly endless profusion of workshops on creativity, motivation, spiritual awareness and transcendence. So how did it all begin and where is it heading? This book explores the origins and directions of the personal growth movement, with a special focus on its holistic and spiritual undercurrents. Written accessibly, while drawing on extensive research, 'Exploring the Labyrinth' explains why this contemporary movement may herald a new approach to spirituality altogether - one which is universal and experiential, rather than constrained by formal religious belief, and one which respects the ancient wisdom traditions wherever they are found.
