Abstract

In the fourth pillar of education: learning to be, it is written that: [...] "Education must contribute to the overall development of every person: body and mind, intelligence, sensitivity, aesthetic sense, personal responsibility, spirituality. "All human beings should [...] be provided with an independent and critical thinking and develop their own views, to determine for themselves what to do in different circumstances of life." (Delors, 1994). Alexander (2013: 115, 120), author of the book: The taste of heaven, wrote that [...] "the fact to make good decisions against evil and injustice on Earth would be less meaningful if we remembered all the beauty and light that awaits us when we leave here.” [...] we should do everything in our power to get in touch with the miraculous part of ourselves, to cultivate and bring it to light. Because it is a being within ourselves right now and, in fact, it is the being that God expects us to be. “Meanwhile, Torralba (2010: 51) from his religious point of view, wrote that it [...] is a manifestation, a development of spiritual intelligence [...] that are the subject of faith ....it gives meaning to human life and it allows us to understand the great moments of existence: events such as birth, death, love and suffering" in the UV the students are formed in four aspects, one of them is human formation understood from the dimensions: emotional, spiritual and body.
