- Abstract
- This re search makes endeavor to invite the Chri stian Reformed tradition to take into serious consideration of reformulating Divine Grace in con- temporary context in which natural scientific findings have challenged the existing religious formation. It initially confronts to the neuroscientific as- sumption of biological or materialistic reductionism in religious experiences. The philosophical insights are presented as critical vehicle to demonstrate the realities are perceived as mechanical or dualistic ways; rather it is rela- tional and communal. At next, aesthetic experiences encapsulate the way in which divine grace would manifest throughnature, and the experiences of beauty give rise to spiritual awareness to interconnected or interpenetrated nature. The holistic perspective leads us to the new awareness that Divine grace will not legitimate human supremacy over nature; rather human nature is inherently connected and related with Nature, the divine milieu.
