The main subject of the dissertation Non-Religious Spirituality in the Postmodern Era, subtitled Spirituality and the New Paradigm, is an analysis of non-religious spirituality within the context of the new possibilities revealed by the science of the new paradigm, which are changing the way we view reality and man's place within the universe. The study presents a possible system for classifying contemporary approaches to spirituality, and subsequently outlines a theoretical model for a new discipline enabling the comprehensive study of spirituality within broader interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary contexts. For this newly proposed scientific discipline, the paper suggests the name spirituology. Spirituality, which was discarded by the Cartesian-Newtonian world view is experiencing a renaissance. Spirituality is a comprehensive and multifaceted phenomenon whose definition is still being shaped in contemporary discourse. Although the actual term comes from Christian theology, it is today understood as religiously neutral. It did not fully establish itself in society until the end of the 20th century in relation to the secularization and privatization of religion, when it replaced the previously used term "religiosity", which is strongly associated with the institution of religion.

The central theme of my final thesis is contemporary secular spirituality. I am interested in the correlation between the general mood in the globalized society of the Euro-American world and the specific way of dealing with spirituality and mysticism. I assume that, as a result of the widespread feeling of insecurity, the desire to achieve the illusion of community and the need for an excess of order is a fundamental characteristic of our time. It is determined by a highly individualistic regime of contemporaneity, a time of excess spectacles, cynical indifference to reality and illusion. It is a time when visions are lacking and when goods and interpersonal relationships have a short lifespan. The formal form of this neo-spirituality in the context of pop culture also has a defining and telling value for me.
