Sažetak
Our intention is to show the problem of ecology in new religiosity according to the thoughts of Željko Mardešić, a sociologist of religion. Starting from the phenomenological and anthropological analysis of the sacred in post modernity, he analyzes the emergence of new religiosity and its social effects. In that context, he panoramically and synthetically deals with the emergence of ecological themes in new religious movements: from Adventists and apocalyptic communities through the groups of Eco Life, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesha, Hare Krishna, Sai Baba to the French Aumists Mandaron and great spiritual currents of the New Age. Mardešić concludes that any involvement in the social effects of religion necessarily includes religious discovery of ecology in post modernity. Both new religiosity and ecology appear as criticism and correction of the disastrous effects of modernity, and advocate for holistic anthropology and pantheistic worldview.
