Abstract

This article, the first of a two-part discussion, focuses on the influence of the New Age on contemporary Sufism. It will consider the main definitions of the New Age and how they have been applied in relation to contemporary Sufism. After having shown the limits of these definitions and applications, it will propose an alternative reading, considering the New Age not as a movement or a cultural phenomenon, but as a discourse. This will allow us to better connect doctrines with practices and organizational structures, and to grasp the continuities and discontinuities between esoteric and New Age discourses.

苏菲主义与新时代话语的相遇:第一部分

本文是两部分讨论的第一部分，主要讨论新时代对当代苏非主义的影响。它将考虑新时代的主要定义，以及它们是如何应用于当代苏非主义的。在展示了这些定义和应用的局限性之后，它将提出另一种解读，将新时代视为一种话语，而不是一场运动或一种文化现象。这将使我们能够更好地将教义与实践和组织结构联系起来，并掌握秘教和新纪元话语之间的连续性和非连续性。
