Abstract

This chapter offers suggestions for future collaborations between the neurosciences and humanities regarding the study of spiritual transcendence and the development of practical applications to enhance such experiences. We specifically provide suggestions for studies to improve our understanding of the self and spiritual transcendence and particularly as they relate to the humanities, neuropsychology, and neurology. Suggestions are offered related to the study of persons with neurological and psychiatric disorders of the self and healthy individuals engaged in religious and spiritual practices. The chapter concludes by offering suggestions for future applications of our model to enhance religious and spiritual practices, health care, and social relationships.
