English term
learning in a moment of numinous joy that is on your side
English to Romanian
Social Sciences
Philosophy
E vorba despre unul din principiile mişcării New Age.
With a combination of scientific experiementation and a wishful imagination, claims are made that you, the reader, can come into "direct contact with an all-pervading higher intelligence, ***learning in a moment of numinous joy that is on your side***". So claims are made to give you the confident use of new energy, and the feeling of being in the loving presence of higher powers.
Mersi anticipat!

Numinous
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Numinous (/ˈnuːmənəs/ or /ˈnjuːmənəs/) is a term coined by Rudolf Otto to describe that which is wholly other. The numinous is the mysterium tremendum et fascinans that leads in different cases to belief in deities, the supernatural, the sacred, the holy, and the transcendent.
Etymologically, it comes from the Latin word numen, which originally and literally meant "nodding", but was associated with meanings of "command" or "divine majesty". Otto coined the word numinous from numen in a manner analogous to the derivation of ominous from [omen]. This was an important concept in the writings of Carl Jung and C. S. Lewis. It was also used by Carl Sagan in his book Contact. The notion of the numinous and the wholly other were central to the religious studies of Mircea Eliade.
In Castaneda's 'Don Juan' books the 'nagual' seems to correspond to a concept of something wholly other, or at least to something our neural net has not yet fit into a template or cookie-cutter 'recognition' (Casteneda's so-called 'tonal').
Mysterium Tremendum et Fascinans - Latin phrase coined by the German Protestant theologian Rudolf Otto to name the awe-some (fascinating and full of awe) mystery that, he argued in his German work on comparative theology, Das Heilige (1917; translated as The Idea of the Holy, 1923), was the object common to all forms of religious experience. Numinous experiences can be quite taxing on the spiritual mind if awakened for too long.
