Religion, Spirituality and Healthcare: How to Understand Them and Live Them Today

The present work constitutes the most important work written by Dr. Roche de Coppens during his long career as an author. In it he has brought together his deepest and longest lasting interests, religion, spirituality and healthcare, in a new theoretical perspective that sheds much light on each of these disciplines and which relates them in an evolutionary perspective. Many of the conflicts, oppositions, paradoxes, and contradictions that pitted various approaches within each field and between these fields are now explained and integrated. Thus allopathy, psychosomatic, integrative, and spiritual medicine can now be reconciled as can religion, spirituality, rationalism, materialism, and the New Age. The key is the level of consciousness and being of the involved person. It is only at the 5th level of consciousness and being that one can reconcile these and bring one in addition to the others rather than having to choose between one or the other.
