to investigate the existential and transpersonal/spiritual dimensions
of human experience. The basic concepts underlying phenomenology

and psychoanalytic approaches in psychology. Participants are
provided with an opportunity to examine their experience of the
sacred through a research exercise.
Topics addressed
include:
- the co-constituted
nature of person and world
- being-in-the-world
- the intentional nature
of consciousness
- the structure/essence of meaningful
experience
- the preflective level of awareness
- the world as lived (Lebenswelt)
- situated freedom
- bracketing as a process of self-inquiry

- hermeneutics
- the transintentional nature of spiritual
experience
