Psychotherapy encompasses exploration of suffering of an individual through the means of psychological techniques and finding ways for the remedy. The spiritual significance envisages to find answer for questions beyond our physical and social self. The spiritual self seeks answer for existential queries like “Why do we suffer?” What is the meaning of our suffering? “Where do we finally reach to end our suffering?” Issues related to the dynamics of the spiritual self and the psychological matrix of well-being will be discussed in detail to decipher the spiritual language of psychotherapy.
