Life is in reality a miracle and a gift. We become aware of this especially when we have health problems or in certain moments of existential crisis. The experience of the numinous reminds us of the existence of the 'living God' within ourselves, as Rudoff Otto says. In psychology, Jung attributes to the word numinous that state of consciousness that a human being has without any part of his psyche intervening. We can say that we have the certainty that God manifests himself in and through our being.
