TRENDS OF THE SO-CALLED NEW SPIRITUALITY AND THE INCLUSION OF SPIRITUAL PROBLEMS IN THE AREA OF PEDAGOGICAL REFLECTION AND PRACTICE

Abstract

The author of the article in her research is looking for such an understanding of spirituality, which would become the basis for undertaking pedagogical activities in the conditions of a public, ideologically neutral school. For this purpose, in the text, she analyzed various understandings of spirituality, hidden under the common name of the so-called “new spirituality,” consisting in separating spirituality from its religious understanding. With this end in view, she identified the following approaches to the analyzed concept: spirituality as extended religiousness, post-church spirituality, spirituality as a psychological need of a human being, existential spirituality and spirituality as a culture. Based on the analysis carried out, it was stated that for pedagogical considerations which form the basis for activities aimed at the development of spirituality in a public school, it is useful to understand spirituality as a psychological need of man and existential spirituality. The last part of the article was devoted to conclusions for pedagogy that result from such understanding of spirituality.<br/><br/>
