Description
Summary:A model for describing the spiritual dimension of life is presented. The model consists of six factors or dimensions along which life can be experienced as a spiritual person. These factors are identified as those of the journey, transcendence, community, religion, "the mystery of creation", and transformation. Evil is described as a lack of progress and/or regression in any of these six dimensions. Recent literature is cited to indicate some of the diversity of understanding of spirituality and in support of various parts of the author's model.
