| dc.description.abstract | In this writing, the hermeneutic pluralism of religious and spiritual healing and its roots in the Gospel are studied through the conceptual systems of the anthropology of religion and medical anthropology. The cosmological assumptions, explanatory models, idioms related to diseases, pathology and healing as preserved in the texts of the Old Testament and the New Testament, as well as their occurrence and meaning in healing rituals then and now will also be studied. Within the frame of this work, the author attempts to map the possible lay, religious, and scientific attitudes towards faith healing and recovery in an age of spiritual awakening. Emphasizing the importance of primary cosmological assumptions and accepting their plurality, we call for an open dialogue in the frame of the biopsychosocial-spiritual paradigm. | |
