ABSTRACT
It is to be presupposed that, the more remarkable psychological characteristics of a saint were, the more they could have contributed to his/her suggestive power. Some recent neurophysiological studies of the human-brain launched the hypothesis that the ecstatic experiences, reported by so many saints, are connected with an electric micro-activity in the temporal lobes, especially the right one. However, it was not always easy to discern a mental illness from the normal variations within the limits of human health.
