Holistic Divinity and Human Divinity

God and Divine Nature

The New Age movement's core doctrine holds that divinity is holistic and pervades the universe rather than standing apart from it, and that human beings are themselves inherently divine rather than fallen or separate from the sacred. This belief underwrites the movement's coming Age of Aquarius framing, its emphasis on individual spiritual authority over institutional creed, and practices from channeling to past life regression that treat inner experience as a direct route to that pervading divinity.
