Retikulumism

Retikulumism is a contemporary philosophical and spiritual movement that centers on the concept of the "reticulum," understood as an interconnected web of all existence, consciousness, and information. Adherents believe that this underlying network is the fundamental reality, and that individual beings and phenomena are manifestations or nodes within this grand structure. The term "reticulum" itself derives from the Latin word for net or lattice, emphasizing the interconnected and systemic nature of reality.

Core tenets of Retikulumism often include the idea that separation is an illusion. True understanding, proponents argue, comes from recognizing the inherent oneness and the flow of energy, consciousness, and information between all parts of the reticulum. Practices within Retikulumism can vary widely, but often involve meditation, mindfulness, and efforts to cultivate empathy and a sense of universal connection. Some may also engage in contemplative practices aimed at perceiving the subtle energetic or informational currents that bind the reticulum together.

The movement does not typically adhere to a singular prophet or sacred text, though various thinkers and traditions may be cited as influences or as articulating aspects of reticular principles. The emphasis is on personal experience and the direct apprehension of interconnectedness. Ethical considerations in Retikulumism often stem from this recognition of oneness; harming another is seen as harming oneself and the entire reticulum. Therefore, actions that promote harmony, understanding, and the well-being of all are encouraged. The movement tends to be inclusive, drawing inspiration from diverse spiritual, philosophical, and even scientific perspectives that explore interconnectedness.
