Religions, Values, and Peak-Experiences by Abraham H. Maslow explores the profound connection between human psychology, spirituality, and the quest for meaning beyond organized religion. Maslow presents the concept of "peak experiences"-moments of intense joy, insight, and transcendence-as universal human experiences that shape our values and provide a sense of purpose. He argues that these experiences, often associated with religious epiphanies, are not exclusive to faith-based traditions but are instead part of the natural human condition. By distinguishing between institutionalized religion and personal spirituality, Maslow advocates for a more secular, humanistic approach to spiritual fulfillment. The book challenges traditional ideas of morality and religiosity, encouraging readers to seek self-actualization and embrace life's most profound moments of awe and wonder as essential to personal growth and psychological well-being.
