How to Experience the Spiritual Meaning of Gospel Texts: The Psychology of Reading Mystically

by Loyola Amalraj

This study presents a psychological understanding of the prayer exercises of the mystics. It examines the spiritual unconscious, supporting its assertions with clinical evidence. The work asserts how contemplative prayer practices affect brain hemispheres by quieting the left brain and enabling the right brain to journey to the deepest part of consciousness.
