Transcendentalism is aptly defined as a culture, religion and philosophy. Like Judaism, transcendentalism is a way of life. Transcendentalism has elements of communal living, like the discalced Carmelites and Third Order Franciscans, also. Mother Theresa said, 'live simply that others may simply live'. Transcendentalism can be called a religion of simplicity, common sense and compassion. Transcendentalism teaches that God is love and as He is love so we must love others and ourselves. It's what genuine "austerity" is all about. It's living in solidarity with the poor and practicing gospel poverty.
