In today's installment of the The Weekly, Ryan proposes the idea that all human experience is transcendental experience, asserting that all of us experience God "in the everyday," and that each of us encounter the transcendent in our mere existence. To live—to exist—is to be in the presence of one's creator. "This natural, human openness to Spirit and this anonymous affirmation of God is experienced existentially and fragmentarily in the personal histories of each individual. In these experiences—in the feelings of euphoria and the helper’s high, in the very giving of oneself to another in love, in being-for-others, as Bonhoeffer put it—one experiences the transcendent; one encounters God."About Ryan, Host of Thinker Sensitive:Ryan Ragozine is the host of Thinker Sensitive.
