Spirituality Enhancement: A Life Quest Journey

2023/24 2^nd Term

“Spirituality is about developing a more authentic identity, which is about meaning making and a sense of wholeness, healing, and the interconnectedness of all things. Spirituality is about an individual’s journey toward wholeness.” Derise E. Tolliver and Elizabeth J. Tisdell (2006)

This course follows the philosophy of life course advocated by the founders of Chung Chi College. Through the learning experience of four core units - philosophy, religion, mental wellness and cultural literacy and lifestyle, combined with master classes and field trips, it aims at enhancing knowledge, stimulating thoughts and seeking ways in between tradition and prospect, essence and ideal, context and confusion, life and discipline, dream and destiny. The expected outcome is to explore the truth, goodness and beauty in the life quest journey.
