Both Universe Spirit as an organization and our personal spirituality support website are intended to be humble gifts back to Ultimate Reality of All Reality from which everything has been given and in which everything is sustained.
Universe Spirit is also a place of inter-spirituality wisdom sharing, spiritualized and individual social activism and, a place for the global emergence and convergence of numerous consciousness and spirituality movements into what is hoped will become a spiritualized global renaissance and a second enlightenment. Some of these movements are:
- the integral and spiral consciousness movements,
- the evolutionary spirituality and process theology movements,
All of these movements in one way or another are attempting to re-integrate science, art and religion.
They are evolving and galvanizing a new level of effective collective spiritualized activism to meet the critical global challenges facing humankind over the next 20 years -- while still always focusing on helping the individual to evolve spiritually as the most realistic and effective way of meeting today’s global challenges.
The additional articles below will introduce and possibly excite you about the many beautiful, balanced and healthy possibilities, directions and goals this new spiritual movement can offer for supporting your spiritual growth and for the creation of a better world.
This new spiritual movement incorporates the best from all spiritual wisdom traditions, spiritualized applications, personal consciousness growth principles and wise problem solving techniques found in the integral and other consciousness movements.
While reading these exciting visions do keep in mind there are many individual co-creators within the Universe Spirit and Integral movements, and no one individual perspective or organization will completely define or limit the possible future direction or flow of the movement.
Also keep in mind that the ultimate mysteries of Ultimate Reality may never be fully knowable and that a humility toward the unknowable element of mystery that will always exist in any authentic spirituality is healthy as well.

After reviewing the above materials, we also suggest going to our Integral Theory link. This will provide you with opportunities to learn about the key concepts of the Integral movement such as the holon, the integral "all quadrant all level" approach to personal and world problem solving and, the new problem solving tools discovered by Professor Claire Graves summarized in the Spiral Dynamics book. A Brief History of Everything , by Ken Wilbur, is also an excellent introduction to the Integral movement.
