ОСОБЕННОСТИ САМОСОЗНАНИЯ РЕЛИГИОЗНОЙ ЛИЧНОСТИ

Abstract

The article represents person`s peculiarities of self-consciousness with different degree of religiosity and highlights the content of religious person`s self-consciousness, depending on the particular confession. It was revealed that: - religiosity draws the content basis of the religious person`s reflection (the respondents present and name themselves though God image; God appears as the central aspect of their claim to recognition); - the religious person`s self-consciousness has a special nature which is determined by reference to the divine as an ideal-image of oneself, abidance of religious precepts and tendency to spiritual development; - religious person has a special connection and dialogue with God; - religious respondents sense faith as “the live meeting and communication with God”, “the deep inner heartfelt experience of meeting with God,” “the way of salvation,” “the attaining the meaning of life,” “the inner aspiration to God and sincere faith in His Existence" etc.; - respondents of different creeds of Christianity have different meaningful content of their reflection. The results of our research can widen theoretical knowledge and ideas of religious person`s self-consciousness, key issues and features of religious person`s reflection. The results of the study can be practically applied to the educational environment, to counseling and therapeutic sessions as well as to the other human-to-human approaches.
