The investigation of spiritual and religious factors The investigation of spiritual and religious factors in health is clearly justified and is clinically relevant because of the need to find ways to improve the health of the population. There are several conflicting assumptions about this link science-spirituality. To point out some, Friedrich Schleiermacher (1862, theologian, philosopher) claimed that it was not pos­sible to know God through reason but that feeling and intuition were the best ways to know God. On the other hand, William James (1902, philosopher of Harvard University) founded the “psychology of religion”, which is the branch of applied psychology to the science of religion, and scandalized the scien­tific world when he defended the practice of mental healing therapies and spiritual ones without God. This article presents a review of various foundations associated with the evolution of health sciences to the field of spiritual knowledge from the perspective of Christianity (the teachings of Jesus) and some ba­sic concepts useful for understanding our humanity, as to face smugly transdisciplinary work is needed, less top-down and less fragmented between science, health and spirituality. La investigación de factores espirituales y religiosos en materia de salud está claramente justificada y es clínicamente relevante por la necesidad de encontrar alternativas para mejorar la salud de la población. Existen diferentes postulados contradictorios sobre este vínculo ciencia-espiritualidad. Por seña­lar algunos, Friedrich Schleiermacher (1862, teólogo filósofo) aseguraba que no era posible conocer a Dios por medio de la razón y que el sentimiento y la intuición eran los mejores caminos para conocerlo. Por otra parte, William James (1902, filósofo de la Universidad de Harvard) fundó la “psicología de la religión”, que es la rama de la psicología aplicada a la ciencia de la religión, y escandalizó al mundo científico cuando defendió las prácticas y terapias de sanación mental-espiritual sin Dios. En este artículo se presenta una revisión de diversos fundamentos asociados con la evolución de las ciencias de la salud hacia el campo del conocimiento espiritual desde una perspectiva del cristianismo (enseñanzas de Jesús) y algunos conceptos básicos útiles para entender la humanidad, ya que para enfrentarla con suficiencia es necesario un trabajo transdisciplina­rio, menos verticalista y menos fragmentado entre ciencia, salud y espiritualidad.
