What is Spiritual Accelerationism?

Spiritual accelerationism is a worldview that encourages individuals to prioritize and develop their highest spiritual ideals. It invites individuals to clearly introspect on their current spiritual state and then define their highest spiritual ideals in order to relentlessly make progress towards achieving them.

Spiritual Accelerationists Believe:

1. The path to reaching human potential is essentially spiritual
2. Spirituality requires going beyond simply being a good person
3. Spiritual satisfaction is antithetical to spiritual acceleration
4. Technology can play a positive role in spiritual development

Why is it Needed?

The current Overton window is dominated by self-help therapeutics, materialist worldviews, and shallow spiritual practices. These kinds of restrictive perspectives are not prepared to address the changes that are coming. We are advocating a worldview for human flourishing that goes beyond conventional orthodoxy to out-pace and integrate the rapid technological change that lies ahead.

Core Principles of Spiritual Accelerationism

Metaphysical Humility: A deep respect and awe for the boundless potential that transcends the physical realm.

Mystical Inquiry: Whether one calls it universal wisdom, spiritual energy, God, or another term, what matters is striving to inquire and increasingly tap into whatever you believe is the highest power source.

Spirit Centric: Go beyond self-centered decision making and advance towards the virtues of your spiritual ideals

A Welcoming Non-Coercive Approach

Spiritual Accelerationism is agnostic about the specific spiritual framework one follows.
We invite all individuals, regardless of tradition or belief, to strive for greater spiritual attainment and to surpass their current limits.
We practice voluntary association in order to ensure the individual retains autonomy for their level of participation and spiritual direction.
