As far as I know, this is TECH-L not TECHSPIRIT-L. They appear to be
different lists

> OVERVIEW of TECHSPIRIT-L
>
> As the electronic communication revolution gathers momentum, it is
> becoming clear that we are in the midst of a global transformation
> that will change human thought and experience at an unprecedented
> rate. One of the least expected but most important areas of culture
> to be affected by the electronic revolution is religious and spiritual
> life. From traditional forms of western and eastern religion to
> recent experimental groups and sects, individuals on a spiritual path
> are searching for new methods of communication, including the Internet
> and related techologies.
>
> THEMES
>
> We are starting TECHSPIRIT-L to explore the implications of
> technospirituality. Key questions include, but are by no means
> limited to, the following:
>
> --> What new spiritual possibilities does cybertechnology create?
>
> --> How how are individuals and groups using computers and the
> media to deliver their spiritual message, whatever it might be?
> How does the technology affect their message?
>
> --> What kinds of spiritual experiments are taking place on the Net
> right now, and where will they lead?
>
> Within this broad framework, no subject is out of bounds. We want to
> know what is already going on, what you think should be going on, and
> what you fear might be going on.
>
> GOALS
>
> Our main goal is to push the exploration of these ideas as far and
> deep as possible. This could include staging rituals on the Net,
> collaborating with cybershamans to achieve healing, or participating
> in other improvisational experiments. Depending on how the
> experiments develop, we might use the discussions as the basis of a
> book, which would disseminate your views and insights by citing
> selected posts.
