The human mind is the subject of research for various fields of activity. Socio-human research fields investigate the brain's relationship with the mind, its circumstantial and relational functionality, the biological support and the complex processes of the soul, the principles of its formation and the relationship with consciousness, as well as its mode of action at the level of the human communities. Besides these perspectives, there is a special domain of mind research: that of Christian patristic spirituality. But what are the research objectives of Christian spirituality with regard to the human mind? And why did the uman mind come to the attention of the holy Fathers of the Church? From the texts of Christian anthropology and spirituality it follows that the mind has become a subject of research because the most intimate union between man and God is at its level. This study is centered on the analysis of St. Maximus the Confessor's observations about the human mind and its spiritual possibilities. The research methods relate both to the relationship between St. Maximus' observations and the previous Greek and Patristic philosophical tradition, and to their comparison with the results of modern thoughts about the mind. It can be said that the spiritual perspectives described by St. Maximus fundamentally complements the current research of about mind, because it discovers her cognitive and sensitive ability to develop in personal relationship with God.
