Explores the interrelationship of two distinct yet complementary disciplines, Judaism and psychology. Religious experiences, thoughts, and behavior are influenced by one's mental status, personality and unique life experiences. Therefore what a psycho-Judaic approach suggests is a fostering of an individualistic pattern within a religious domain rather than to create a uniform way of being for all individuals.
