Shirley Maclaine is a New Age cultist.  She is just about one of most prominent New Agers today. I compare the effect she has had on the New Age movement with the effect Darwin had on evolution. MacLaine is an Academy Award-winning actress who has spent several decades in Hollywood. In several books she describes he acting engagements and life story, as well as her New Age beliefs

She believes and teaches reincarnation.  Quote: [The physical and mental aspects of life are, in fact, compliments to the spirit. The physical body will pass from this and other lifetimes and the mind will require training and expand and grow with each new life experience. But the spirit, our attachment to the Divine, will remain intact, complete, all-knowing and everlasting.]

She practices Pantheism. Quote: [My preference is a one-on-one connection because I feel more comfortable aligning myself directly with the Godforce. But that is my choice. Some may favor finding the bond in the form of a religion, through a prayer or through a meditation. Others may find it by smelling a flower or by hugging a tree. How the connection is made is up to each individual. The important objective is making the alliance between Godforce and spirit.]
