ESPINOSA-ARCE, Juan Pablo. Spirituality of the senses in the stories of the city. Cuest. teol. [online]. 2021, vol.48, n.110, pp.193-206.  Epub 06-Abr-2022. ISSN 0120-131X.  https://doi.org/10.18566/cueteo.v48n110.a01.

Spirituality is a quality of the human being. Through it we go on a journey with God, in whom we recognize the deep meaning of our lives. Human life, a space of encounter with God, is understood as the link between body and spirit, of the personal and the community dimension, of the home and urban experience. Based on this consideration, this article seeks to delve into the category and topic of "spirituality of the senses", which has been proposed and developed by the Portuguese theologian José Tolentino Mendonça. The senses are defined as access doors to reality, to history, to the world and to others. Through the senses, the body and our interiority, we develop life, a life walked, celebrated, originated and ended in the middle of our cities. Therefore, the consideration arises of thinking how in the middle of the city, of the urban fabric, and of the challenges of current coexistence, we exercise the aforementioned spirituality of the senses.
