This article explores the dynamics of spiritual crisis and revival among contemporary youth by examining the influence of Eastern and Western cultural paradigms. In the context of globalization and rapid technological advancement, young people often face identity confusion, cultural dissonance, and value instability. This study analyzes how the traditional values of Eastern spirituality—such as collectivism, harmony, and moral discipline—interact with the individualism, rationalism, and secularism of Western thought. Drawing on sociological surveys, philosophical discourse, and comparative cultural studies, the article investigates the roots of spiritual decline and the mechanisms through which cultural synthesis can foster a revival of moral consciousness in youth. The findings suggest that a balanced integration of Eastern and Western paradigms can contribute to the development of a more stable, ethically grounded, and culturally aware generation. This research has implications for educational systems, cultural policy, and youth engagement strategies across diverse societies.
