The theory of the spiritual senses

Zyzak, Wojciech (author)

The author of the article tries to systemize the approaches of Christian writers about spiritual senses. He presents theological bases of the theory of spiritual senses, concepts of their existence, quantity, a hierarchy of importance, nature and subject. The text is mainly based on the Holy Bible, the Fathers of the Church and the most important theologians dealing with this issue. The text shows, that in the Christian tradition spiritual senses refer to an integral experience of Christian mystery by a believer and even more by a mystic who experiences God in a total and integrating communion through Jesus Christ.

• Title: Teorija duhovnih čutov

Abstract

Avtor prispevka poskuša sistematizirati pristope krščanskih avtorjev pri obravnavi duhovnih čutov. Predstavlja teološke temelje teorije o duhovnih čutih, koncepte njihovega obstoja, števila, hierarhije pomembnosti, narave in področja. Besedilo temelji zlasti na Svetem pismu, cerkvenih očetih in najpomembnejših teologih, ki so se z dano temo ukvarjali. Kaže, da se duhovni čuti v krščanskem izročilu nanašajo na sestavni del izkušnje krščanske skrivnosti – že pri verniku, še bolj pa pri mistiku, ki izkuša Boga v popolnem in celovitem občestvu po Jezusu Kristusu.
