To analyze the phenomenology of the spiritual experience under the lenses of the Grounded Theory method, an initial questionnaire
has been developed and submitted to 216 respondents. The quantitative observations have been analyzed for their contribution
to the model with R and using last generation multivariate data analysis leveraging on SmartPLS to determine the relationships
between the factors exposed in the model. If the initial model does not perfectly fit with the gathered observations, the
remodeling of the items after an exploratory factory analysis helped to design an emerging model useful for the purpose of
the study. The analysis of the observations structured according to the new model leads to interesting conclusions such as
the spiritual representation are necessary to ensure that spiritual experiences have a significant impact on the behaviors.
The initial and positive outcome opens the door to further development of the research such as the elaboration of an updated
questionnaire, the definition of an interpretation framework and the continuation of research on the subject. KEYWORDS Transpersonal
