“…It was these hidden ingredients that made the difference. In our efforts to understand what makes a community, I believe that we have also overlooked at least one critical but hidden ingredient-the sacred (Hill 2000).…”

Theory and research suggest that there is a basic and irreducible human yearning for a relationship with something that transcends ourselves, something sacred. The sacred can be understood not only in individual terms, but also in terms of relationships, settings, and communities. Empirical studies indicate that the sacred has powerful implications for human behavior; it can be an organizing force and a resource to people in their most difficult times, yet it can also be a source of seemingly intractable problems. This paper reviews several of the promising steps psychologists have taken to learn about the sacred, learn from spiritual communities, and collaborate with these communities in efforts to better the world. Research and practice in this area is enriching our understanding of the meaning of community and the meaning of spirituality.

Community psychology as a field may have lost some of its original spirit; a spirit dominant at the founding of the field. Spirit is a difficult concept to discuss since it is a concept beyond usual discourse in psychology as a denotative, measurable and verifiable concept. Taking the lead from William James, Spirit, however elusive, is most essential to a sense of self. I offer three suggestions to enhance and to make our individual and collective spirit more vital: (1) Continuing education in the history of community psychology; (2) Creating time to share stories about our work; (3) Creating safe settings to enlarge our spirit. These ideas are offered as pragmatic suggestions to enable us to create more coherence between our personal and professional selves.

“…Spiritualitas adalah pikiran, perasaan, dan perilaku yang terkait dengan pencarian, atau perjuangan untuk memahami dan berkaitan dengan yang transenden (Hill, 2000). Spiritualitas juga dapat dimaknai sebagai orientasi internal individu menuju realitas transenden yang mengikat semua hal menjadi satu kesatuan yang harmonis (Dy-Liacco dkk, 2009).…”
