The main focus of this research is the relation between the socio-cultural practices and the spiritual conversion careers of the participants. With qualitative and quantative research on the personal stories of the participants and their socialised practices, this research will give a better understanding of the following question: In which ways represent the practitioners of Spiegelogie their spiritual conversion careers in relation to the experience of their identity and social identities?
