Preeminent psychoanalyst Mortimer Ostow believes that early childhood emotional attachments form the cognitive underpinnings of spiritual experience and religious motivation. His hypothesis, which is verifiable, relies on psychological and neurobiological evidence but is respectful of the human need for spiritual value. Ostow begins by classifying the three parts of the spiritual experience: awe, Spirituality proper, and mysticism. After he pinpoints the psychological origins of these feelings in infancy, he discusses the foundations of religious sentiment and practice and the brain processes associated with spiritual experience. He then focuses on spirituality's relationship to mood regulation, and the role of negative spirituality in fostering religious fundamentalism and demonic possession.Ostow concludes with an analysis of an essay by the psychoanalyst Donald M. Marcus, who recounts his own spiritual experience during a Native American-style "vision quest" in the woods. Marcus's account demonstrates the constructive potential of spirituality and the way in which spirituality retrieves and recapitulates feelings of attachment to the mother.Persuasively and brilliantly argued, Spirit, Mind, and Brain brings the disciplines of religion, behavorial neuroscience, and philosophy to bear on a groundbreaking new method for understanding religious ritual and belief.

Technical advances in the life and medical sciences have revolutionised our understanding of the brain, while the emerging disciplines of social, cognitive, and affective neuroscience continue to reveal the connections of the higher cognitive functions and emotional states associated with religious experience to underlying brain states. At the same time, a host of developing theories in psychology and anthropology posit evolutionary explanations for the ubiquity and persistence of religious beliefs and the reports of religious experiences across human cultures, while gesturing toward physical bases for these behaviours. What is missing from this literature is a strong voice speaking to these behavioural and social scientists - as well as to the intellectually curious in the religious studies community - from the perspective of a brain scientist.

This book explores the implications of recent insights in modern neuroscience for the church's view of spiritual formation. Science suggests that functions of the brain and body in collaboration with social experience, rather than a disembodied soul, provide physical basis for the mental capacities, interpersonal relations, and religious experiences of human beings. The realization that human beings are wholly physical, but with unique mental, relational and spiritual capacities, challenges traditional views of Christian life as defined by the care of souls, a view that leads to inwardness and individuality. Psychology and neuroscience suggest the importance of developmental openness, attachment, imitation and stories as tools in spiritual formation. Accordingly, the idea that care of embodied persons should be fundamentally social and communal sets new priorities for encouraging spiritual growth and building congregations.

Wat is het verband tussen gezondheid en geluk, tussen gezondheid en zingeving?-Vertrouwen, zorg, sociale ondersteuning, empathie... kunnen werken als krachtige 'geneesmiddelen'. Energiek en gezond leven: dat wil iedereen vandaag. En toch voelen we ons zieker dan ooit. Depressies en onverklaarbare ziekten steken overal de kop op. Artsen staan vaak machteloos. Nog meer pillen en medicalisering zijn een doodlopende weg. Heeft je gevoelsleven een weerslag op je hart? Kunnen gebed of meditatie je gezondheid vooruithelpen? Hoe zit het met de 'miraculeuze' genezingen? Wat is gezonde en ongezonde religie?Wetenschappelijk onderzoek toont vandaag aan dat emoties en mentale ingesteldheid directe gevolgen hebben op het organisme. Vertrouwen en hoop maken stoffen vrij in ons brein, die kunnen werken als een krachtig geneesmiddel. Deze herontdekking van de eenheid lichaamsgeest heeft consequenties voor de hele gezondheidszorg. Maar ook voor de betekenis van zingeving en religie. Geloof als geneesmiddel schetst een globaal, indringend en fascinerend beeld van een wereld en van een debat in volle ontwikkeling.
