COELHO JUNIOR, Achilles Gonçalves  y  MAHFOUD, Miguel. The Spiritual and Religious Dimensions of Human Experience: Distinctions and Relations on Viktor Frank's Work. Psicol. USP [online]. 2001, vol.12, n.2, pp. 95-103. ISSN 0103-6564.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0103-65642001000200006.

Starting from Viktor Frankl’s contributions, the article concerns, theoretically, about the distinctions and relations between the Noetic Dimension (Spiritual) and the Religious Dimension of human experience. We have described the Noetic Dimension, trying to explain its essentially human characteristics and unconscious expressions. We have remarked that on the moral conscience, man concerns about its transcendent aspect - by intuition - being able to say YOU to this transcendence and to build a relationship which takes the form of a religious experience.
