Concepts of Spirituality at Universities of Today

Summary/Abstract: In today’s world, the concept of spirituality has entered into an extremely dynamic phase. This evolution is especially noticeable in the way spirituality is being taught at various universities. This paper will discuss studying spirituality from a Roman Catholic perspective viewed in a combination of four dimensions: ontological or phenomenological and foundational or pragmatic. It will take into account future directions in the approach to spirituality, including the ecumenical (Christian), the interreligious, and the non-religious.The aim of this paper is to develop the above-stated characteristics based on some chosen examples of university curricula, then having done so, to elaborate a comparative analysis of the understanding of spirituality and its implications for academic programs.
