Summary/Abstract: While the cognitive dimension is an inseparable part of the learning process, modern research has acknowledged the roles of affective and spiritual as being compatible within this process. Thus, stressing the interaction between teachers and students, the need for spiritually-based qualities in educational process emerges. Spirituality is the indwelled knowing of our self, the understanding of the highest transcendence-driven spiritual features. The underlying argument in favor of transcendence in education is that there can be no teaching without a notion of transcendence. The problem question asks what are the possibilities to develop the awareness, which is based on transcendental aspects, in an educational context. Based on these assumptions the objective of this presentation is to introduce the conceptual framework of the development of transcendental awareness.
