RESUMO

This research mainly discusses the psychological aspects in religious Pentecostal cure. It does not discuss if there is religious cure or not, it concentrates, however, on investigating the psychological elements present, or which contribute to the execution of religious Pentecostal cure. It intends to understand in some way the psychological apparatus and its elements which, starting from religious and psychological symbolism, turn themselves into participants in this discussion, through jungian vision. It questions to what point the religious pentecostal cures arent also psychosomatic cures. To Jung, the symbol is the psychological mechanism which transforms the energy, and which can be considered as the individual expression of the archetype. The symbol is the means that provides the possibility of using the energy flow for some kind of production. Jung called the energy-transforming symbol the image of the libido, which would be the presentations that can give an equivalent expression to the libido, canalizing it to a form different from the original one. The research deals with: health, sickness and sick; religion, psychology and the efficience of both in the cure. It culminates in the field work with four case studies of religious pentecostal cure, where the psychological aspects are studied.
