The human being is a being that has experience of the world since he lives in it and as such is related to the environment. That is, the experience shows the capacity of the person to experience, ultimately, to live. However, the type of experience can be different depending on its own object.
Divine sensations that one develops and perceives
The experiences that are linked to divinity are called religious experience in which the subject establishes a relationship with a spiritual reality. Religious ecstasy can show a religious experience. In the same way, the conversion to a specific religion also shows another inner experience that is intimate and non-transferable.
Approach to God
It is a very profound experience but also a very complex one, since human beings can feel overwhelmed by an experience that they have difficulty expressing in words, taking into account that language is limited.
The religious experience is an intimate experience of God, an approach to the divine essence that marks a turning point in personal life.
It is not necessary to think of an extraordinary event to be able to speak of a religious experience. A person who in his day to day has faith in God can have an experience of the presence of God in his life. The religious experience is a very intimate experience. It may happen that a person shares her experiences with another who reacts with some skepticism. This experience is not externally observable.
The search for transcendence
From a more general point of view, the attitude of the human being who seeks the value of transcendence in his life can also receive the name of religious experience. A search for spirituality that starts from the human being’s ability to ask questions related to life, death and the existence of a superior being.
A search for the true that brings a concrete meaning to existence. This search is closely linked to silence, since many spaces for prayer and worship are contextualized in an environment of silence in order to distance themselves from the noise of the world. This fact is clearly shown in meditation that allows for introspection and the search for truth.
