Playing sports is a way to develop spirituality

By: Francesc Torralba Roselló, Ismael Santos

328 pages

This book was born from a meeting. Two people fascinated by sports meet on a sunny afternoon on a terrace in Barcelona. Both have practiced sports for years, although in different modalities.

We are convinced that sport is an integral activity that alters, develops and activates every dimension of the human being, what is visible and invisible, material and immaterial, its essence as well as it exterior presence.

It is an extraordinary and useful path that activates the spiritual intelligence of every human being; enables transcendence; frees from ego; integrates into the Whole; allows living peak experiences that trigger, as a consequence, the emotional life and the inner being.

Torralba and Santos reflect on sports and its relationship with spirituality
