Nafas Kesadaran dan Menghidupkan Spiritualitas Melalui Integrasi Tasawuf dan Psikologi
Abstract: This article
explains about an effort of livening up spirituality in one’s self based on
religious understanding, namely through the doctrines and values of Sufism in
order to get close to God (taqarrub ilâ Allâh). It aims to reach spiritual
theistic using a method of “the Breath of Consciousness”. The method uses
breath, i.e. inhaling and exhaling, as we usually do. The method consists of
three important steps, are: breathing calmly, breathing deeply, and breathing
gently. The key to the success of this method is consistent implementation
(istiqa}mah) and simultaneous practice. “The Breath of Consciousness” should be
done through seven sequential steps and stages, namely breathing in
consciousness, looking in consciousness, feeling in consciousness, moving in
consciousness, walking in consciousness, speaking in consciousness, and
presence in consciousness. The expected contribution of the method is providing
the society, especially the Muslim community, an easy technique to get close to
God. Moreover, the method—when implemented correctly—will result in healthy
body, pure mind, quiet soul, and peaceful heart. In doing so, the article aims
to elaborate the integration of psychology and Sufism as an approach to the
study of soul and consciousness.
