Abstract |
Humans have been exploring their dreams for millennia, and these
explorations have most often been conducted in religious terms and
contexts. The general cognitive aim of this paper is to analyse the
important relationship between dreams and human spirituality. The
capacity of sociological and religious studies can be demonstrated
by considering the work of certain sociologists of religion,
including such luminaries as Emil Durkheim, Max Weber, Peter
Berger, and Daniell Hervieu Leger.
