Description
Summary:According to the German psychoanalyst Erich Fromm (1900-1980), spirituality should be understood as an attitude that aims at breaking away from egocentrism, a way out of oneself guided by the love of life, imbued with na existential sense and a defender of human diversity. With regard to education, Erich Fromm points out that the act of teaching is capable of awakening the potential skills of the learner’s own being, whose potential may be dormant in his or her own interior and that only some stimuli are required to be awakened. In this perspective, this paper aims to explain and analyze aspects of the interface between humanist spirituality and education based on Erich Fromm’s writings, emphasizing that the educational process should also encompass the individual’s spiritual dimension. As a methodological resource, we propose to carry out a theoretical-bibliographic analysis of the following works: Man for himself, The Heart of Man, Revoir Freud and To Have or to Be?, all authored by Erich Fromm, in addition to resort to the works of some commentators of this humanista psychoanalyst. Finally, we intend to show that the cultivation of inner wisdom is an essential aspect for the improvement of the learner’s own being, as it promotes the awakening of biophile consciousness.
