生命綠洲之旅：一位女性的靈性轉化學習歷程之自我敘說

Abstract

靈性學習是社會教育的重要一環，在不同的性別裡的轉化歷程也會有所其特色。屬於女性或少數群體的聲音在靈性轉化學習的道路上，往往會遇見可預期的阻礙，例如不知道如何與外界社會溝通、不知如何表達自己內心真實的聲音，有時常因為其特殊性與主流價值不同而處於邊陲的聲音。本篇研究探討一位女性的靈性學習者，在其個體轉化的歷程當中，所經驗到的靈性轉化學習，在面對自身所處的生命困境與難題之中，如何逐步自我成長、脫穎而出，不再受限於過去長年束縛住自己的力量，而能展開全新的人生藍圖，翻開下一個篇章。本篇研究所探討的靈性轉化學習內容，以個體化的歷程和不同的意識轉化階段為主體，以女英雄的旅程為時間軸的生命轉化與整全實踐的架構，描繪研究者自我敘說的精采豐富之內在轉化歷程。撰寫這篇研究的目的，是為了讓同樣處於靈性追求迷惘階段的同道人舉起一盞明燈，讓我們勇於帶著這個特別的自我踏入這個現實世界，也讓我們更有勇氣面對自己存在世間的意義。
