Abstract

Spirit (pneuma) is the basic datum of religious experience in all religions. It is this foundational reality which makes possible for the humans to exercise their religious sense and elevate their self to the realm of the divine. Spirit is also one of the fundamental concepts in the·history of philosophy. The philosophical concept of pneuma was first worked out in Greek thought, although there was no word as such which had all the connotations and nuances of what we understand by the word 'spirit' in our times
