Agape as the Radiance of Coherence: A Neurophenomenological Perspective
In the traditional Christian lexicon, Agape is often defined as unconditional, self-giving love. It is the love that "seeketh not its own." However, in the light of the ongoing dialogue in modern theology, specifically the work of Ilia Delio, and our research into the physiology of the "Phenomenal Event," we can now offer a more … Continue reading Agape as the Radiance of Coherence: A Neurophenomenological Perspective
Beyond Reductionism: When Neuroscience Meets the Theology of the Event: God Experienced
For decades, the dialogue between science and religion has been trapped in a stalemate: one side claiming God as a metaphysical entity beyond reach, the other reducing spiritual experience to mere "brain fizzes" or chemical glitches. Following a dialogue with a prominent theologian, we refine our definition: God is not a biological 'product' of the … Continue reading Beyond Reductionism: When Neuroscience Meets the Theology of the Event: God Experienced
The Physiology of Grace: A Neurophenomenological View on the Visio Beatifica
In the heart of Catholic mystical theology lies the concept of the Visio Beatifica: the "Beatific Vision." It is described as the ultimate direct perception of God, a state of supreme happiness where the soul sees the Divine Essence face-to-face.

Lights turn into … Continue reading With Chinese Inner Alchemy we can avoid New Age Fantasies
