Abstract

This paper is the result of a reflection that seeks to understand the essence of the psychic phenomenon of the experience of living in community. From the observation and analysis of written statements of experiences in the Community, it is verified that the essence of this experience is an existential transformation, covering the intra-psychic levels, inter-subjective, the relationship with the world and the experience of transcendence. The experience of living in community reframes the totality of the person’s life, becoming thus a psychic balancing factor.
