Abstract

This is an existential phenomenology of what it means to be spirit, to live a spiritual life. It is phenomenological in that its approach is at once descriptive and experiential. It is existential in that it relates its descriptions to the meaning of human life and presents them as possibilities rather than as facts. It begins with a vivid description of human animality and with the suggestion that it is disgust with ourselves as flesh that is the origin of our life as spirit.
