Pluralism and Spirituality: A Heterotelic Spirituality for Intercultural Dialogue

Main Article Content

Zaida Espinosa Zárate

Abstract

This text points out that a mature experience of otherness –which correlates with high levels of intercultural competence (Bell et al., 2017)– requires the development of the subject's spiritual dimension. It is argued that there can be no real interculturality without the cultivation of spirituality or in limited or restricted spiritual forms. It looks into the different stages or phases of understanding otherness that the subject goes through, and examines how the relationship with others changes according to different spiritual forms. With the aim of promoting more fruitful intercultural dialogues, it concludes by pointing to the need for a transformation of the prevailing modes of spirituality towards a so-called heterotelic spirituality: a spirituality that transcends, without denying, the possibilities of understanding otherness available from the purely logical-linguistic rationality of discourse ethics.
