spiritual ecosystem

In much the same way that physical existence has a wide range of species (biological diversity) to meet specific needs and enable adaptation to change, so too do the different types of people (neurodivergent, LGBTQIASB+, etc) exist to meet specific spiritual needs and enable continued spiritual evolution. 

This does NOT apply to races, which are a physical aspect, but MAY apply to some cultures. 

It also does not apply to many religions, which are more akin to tools that human use to impact the physical world: as tools evolve over time and older, simplerr, less apt tools are discarded, so too are religions meant to evolve and adapt.

I first mentioned this concept in https://gnwmythr.blogspot.com/2023/12/post-no-2663-autism-and-psychism.html  

See also   spiritual evolution   and   spiritual maturity

 

Note that others use this phrase in a way that is basically Paganism (but without the honesty to admit that): caring for physical ecosystems is a sacred duty, and feeds us spiritually - see, for instance,   https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spiritual_ecology&oldid=1183952755   and   https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/23311886.2023.2210900   As that concept is better expressed in Paganism and other Indigenous religions (Paganism is the Indigenous religion of Europe), I consider it should be referred using existing terms rather than creating a colonialist (as it ignores the Indigenous religious values which already cover the concept) and grammatically sloppy portmanteau.
