Digital Spirituality

Abstract

Humans have transformed religious practice from onsite to online in a digital society. There are various understandings and new ways of spirituality. This research aims to conceptualize digital spirituality as a consequence of the digital culture of modern society. It was concluded that the most essential part of spirituality is not the way to achieve it but the self-awareness and desire to pursue a better spiritual life. Digital spirituality is a new way of using digital technology that facilitates people’s religious lives to practice their beliefs, talk about God, and build their spiritual lives. Spirituality does not change in its purpose and transforms an effort to make it happen.
