Cattoi and Mc Daniel present a selection of articles on the role of the body and the spiritual senses – our transfigured channels of sensory perceptions – in the context of spiritual practice. The volume investigates this theme across a variety of different religious traditions within Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Daoism.
