Abstract

New Age is modern social-cultural phenomenon which grows in the environment of postmodern period. In the “Fides et ratio” the Pope John Paul II emphasizes that theese streamings in the modern life can not be joined with the Holy writ. The new-age tries to give the answers on the biggest questions od man’s life such as God, human being, world, good and bad. Theese answers are not original, they are mostly eclectism of Eastern mysticism and western naturalism. For them God is unpersonal universal power and a human being is a part of godhead and is not responsible to anyone of for anything. The universe is changing every 2160 years. There is visible and invisible universe. The salvation of the evil is new conscience in reincarnation.
