RESILIENCE, PSYCHIATRY AND RELIGION FROM PUBLIC AND GLOBAL MENTAL HEALTH PERSPECTIVE Dialogue and Cooperation in the Search for Humanistic Self, Compassionate Society and Empathic Civilization

Sažetak
Psychiatry has increasingly devoted its attention to the role of religion and spirituality in mental health and illness. All religions
offer explanations for meaning and purpose of life, involving rationales for the reality of human suffering and traumas related to
natural disasters, war, civil violence, torture, etc. In many countries different religious organizations have funded and operated
mental health services as well as supported better understanding, empathy and compassion among cultures. A rapprochement
between psychiatry and religion has been predicated on their overlapping goals to promote individual and community resilience,
growth, and well-being. Due to progress in post-secular dialogue, psychiatry, religion and spiritual disciplines have the historical
opportunity to shape the future of individual, public and global mental health as well as building compassionate society and
empathic civilization.
