LIMINA - Theological perspectives from Graz is the scientific open-access journal of the Faculty of Catholic Theology at the University of Graz. The thematic focus of LIMINA is on current transformation processes and is oriented towards the following questions: What are the socially, culturally, politically, religiously and ecclesiastically most challenging changes and upheavals of the present? How can these be addressed from a theological perspective? In what way do they require innovative methodological and interdisciplinary approaches? How do these changes and conflicts transform theology itself?
Vol. 7 No. 2 (2024): Spiritualities. Forever longing, forging new paths?
Our longing for inner and external peace, for social justice and a good life for all, and for purpose and happiness can motivate vastly different actions in humanity’s and individual’s search for it. Primarily, this searching translates into sets of values and beliefs that are often tied to religious ideas and practices, or represent a religious expression in themselves.
Spirituality, however, is not to be equated with practicing a religion. The growing popularity of the term spirituality along with a continuously expanding offering of spiritual concepts, guides and practices raise questions within religious studies, theology and philosophy about an epochal shift in the relationship and interplay between worldviews, religious beliefs, denominational faith and different spiritualities.
