AFFLATUS: O PERSPECTIVĂ MAI LARGĂ ASUPRA EXPERIENȚEI ȘI LIBERTĂȚII RELIGIOASE
Afflatus: a Broader Perspective on Religious Experience and Freedom

Summary/Abstract: Afflatus/adflatus(s) is the Latin term that points to the divine inspiration or presence in humans, as the Romans and Greeks have perceived it before Christ. The topic of a divine spirit living in the human body is familiar to the ancient Hebrews as well. The lodging of God in the Tabernacle, or later, in the Temple built by Solomon, are types of the presence of God in the believer. In this article we will present both the Latin and Christian perspectives of this topic, emphasizing the fact that this lodging of the Divine Spirit in humans should become part of the taxonomy of the spiritual experiences. This could be counted as a continuous religious experience, highly beneficial to the human spirit.
