Abstract

Nowadays, we encounter many groups who speak of spirituality and, despite their plurality and varieties, all of them hold that there is ( and has been) a philosophia perennis whose fundamentals and principles are not ( and will not be ) subject to any kind of change and transformation. These groups, while believing in this perennial tradition, criticize the western modem culture and civilization and enumerate their objections to it as its serious weaknesses. They criticize it for, among many others, its dualistic and reductionistic attitudes which, they say, are conducive to rejecting faith and overstating the importance of reason, and these two are, in their own rights, responsible for the spiritual crisis of the present world.However, traditionalism one of these spiritualistic currents and movements, while believing in the Perennial tradition and criticizing the western modem culture and civilization, rejects the way in which New Age Religion, another one of these spiritualistic currents and movements, criticizes the Western modem culture and civilization and regards it as originating in the same culture and civilization. New Age Religion is thought, by traditionalists, to have a very important weakness: its electicistic method which has resulted in its separation from the historical religions and, also, in the rise of new man-made religions.In this paper, Firstly, we introduce the existing spiritual currents and movements; secondly, we list the five elements, the five trends, and the two main characteristics of New Age Religion; thirdly, we discuss this movement's critical attitudes towards western modem culture and civilization; and finally, we deal with the traditionalist's critique of the movement's of criticizing the west.
