Spiritual Growth

A question to consider is this: Is it plausible or even imaginable that an organizational or leadership model might be created that would foster a cultural or institutional dynamic which can successfully lead others towards their own path of intellectual and spiritual growth? Indeed, it may be the case that such a vision is unrealistic unless there is a common basis for understanding the definition of “spiritual growth” itself. Only then can the ideas of legitimacy and social responsibility with regard to religious institutions or social movements be established.
