The Role of individualism in New Age Culture

https://www.humanreligions.info/new_age.html: Expanded section 1.3's section on individualism as a supporting mood of the New Age: "Individualism is the default, assumed position of New Age practices by both suppliers and consumers of New Age material and services. Researcher Kennet Granholm says that "the individualism of New Age spirituality is taken to an extreme level" and limits the extent to which the movement can self-organize. Likewise, Michael York states that the "New Age is a decentralized movement - one built around not doctrines or particular belief systems but an experiential vision". Paul Heelas goes further and states that the self-spirituality of the New Age is the defining and unifying feature of the New Age.
