Hermeneutics of Religious Experience. The Clues and Contribution to the Discussion

Summary/Abstract: When we talk about the definition of “religious experience”, even in a theological approach, we can see justified ambivalence. The centuries-long reflection on this issue, from the analysis of biblical texts to patristic thought, the reflections of theologians, and the decisions of the Church’s Teacher’s Office, leads to a multiplicity and variety of conclusions. However, the leaps of development and changes with the category of experience do not contradict Revelation. The article does not exhaust the issue of religious experience in its entirety, but it does give a clear signal of the importance of the problem and contributes to further research in philosophy, psychology, and theology. The text presents the results of the research, which gives the possibility to apply them to contemporary theological thought. It can be seen that religious experience is not something static and finite, but is something dynamic and multidimensional.
