Spiritual therapy psychology and neuroscience literatures needed?
Dear ziabari, in 2005, a scientist in Canada, Buddhist, Christian, Jewish and Muslim people have made a 20-minute period of dhikr. He injected blue fluid into the brain before it started. At the end of this, the energy produced by the dhikr spread to all parts of the brain. that is, dhikr occupation strengthens memory. I read this information on the internet in a press release.
Hello Seyed Sahand Mohammadi Ziabari,
Are you interested in Quantum Consciousness? The book I am currently reading is written by Peter Smith, a spiritual hypnotherapist and the creator of the Quantum Consciousness experience. The book is: Quantum Consciousness Expanding Your Personal Universe: A contribution to the evolving consciousness of humanity. 2015. For the book see: www.theconsciousnesscollective.com.au The website which has links to Peter Smith's ideas is https://www.instituteforquantumconsciousness.com
It which might help you decide if this is the kind of work you are wanting to research.
I am a spiritual director. I also have a Certificate in Process Work http://www.processwork.edu. Process Work is also an interesting modality which combines spirituality and psychology. The founder is Arnold Mindell, also a physicist, who has written many books, among them Process Mind.
Hope you enjoy your research

Thank you Ahmet Canan Karakaş,
but I need more precise in the brain. How it works!?
Sahand
Thank you Marlene Marburg,
Hope it contains the neuroscience activity when the spiritual therapy performing. I need literatures that contain how neuroscience work in the brain parts.
Best,
Sahand
The brain is not the seat of spirituality as far as I know. You will find literature on the brain and psychology in journals of neuropsychology.
Best regards. Marlene
(1) There is a vast literature now on neuroimaging studies of meditation and yoga; many of the studies specify exact neural nodes of various networks activated or deactivated. If I can find time I aim to identify based on the literature the neural network for 'religion'. This is one of dozens of my works in progress.
(2) The term 'spiritual' needs to be defined and also operationalized clearly. There are various assessment instruments available. I find them all weak in their definitions and components of 'spirituality'. I am working on a clear definition.
(3) Given the half dozen ontological regions covering all value-concepts (all of philosophy), I suggest that spirituality most corresponds to the 'animacy' neural network, and secondarily to the 'self-(other)-relationship' network, which corresponds, strictly speaking, to culture-creating.
(4) I have touched on the concept of 'spirituality' in two of my published papers: 'The Case for Chimpanzee Religion' and "A Trans-species Definition of Religion'. One component of the definition of 'religion' in those papers I defined in terms of 'dyadic (self-other) animacy' and 'intimacy'. This is a motif that is found in every 'religious/spiirtual' tradition of which I am aware. These papers are slowly entering syllabi in the field of religious studies. To date no scholar has critiqued or even partially falsified my hypotheses, so to date I guess my definitions stand.

When meditating the brain waves become more lateralized and equal across the brain. I have co-develped a measure that can tap into the difference between spirituality and religiousity. I don’t know how to copywrite or pubish it though
