Fostering Spiritual Values
National Spiritual Day is dedicated to honouring the diverse spectrum of spiritual values cherished by individuals throughout our country. While these values may vary from one person to another, they all converge on the fundamental principle of fostering a world steeped in love, compassion, and equality for all beings.
Our Mission
On this day and in the days ahead, our mission is clear. We will:
- share spiritual knowledge and practices
- guide and support those interested in understanding their spiritual nature and delving into the essence of spirituality
- facilitate an exploration of what it means to live spiritually
- offer inspiration for integrating spiritual practices into daily routines, while nurturing a deeper understanding of their profound significance.
Opportunities Await
National Spiritual Day provides opportunities to come together and celebrate the spiritual aspects of life and honour the truth that we are all spiritual beings. Join with others on similar journeys to pause to commemorate and reflect on our connection with Spirit, however we define it.
Everyday Spirituality
Each year there will be a focus on a different aspect of spirituality. This year we will focus on everyday spirituality. We will be running discussion/meditation evenings and providing a variety of content on this website and social media in line with this focus. Learn more on our dedicated focus page.
We warmly welcome participation from individuals of all spiritual perspectives and backgrounds.
The Origins of National Spiritual Day
On 22 September 2024, we celebrated 100 years since Spiritualism was legitimised in New Zealand by the passing of an Act. As we were in the planning stages for these celebrations, the idea appeared to expand this to all those interested in spirituality with the launch of National Spiritual Day, to be observed annually on September 22.
