The concept of learning communities is used by educators holistic to identify schools or comprehensive educational environments have two main principles: 1 .- It moves away from the idea that school is for children to learn to view that all members of the organization to learn. 2 .- Provide support and conditions designed to facilitate spiritual experience. In an education based on this concept says NO! to the dominant vision of the modern era with its values of standardization, materialism, efficiency, profit and power, instead it follows a path in which recognize the various dimensions of human, moral contexts, cultural and ecological as well as various learning pathways and understanding the experience as a guide to the evolution of consciousness (8). The college or school that pays attention to the cultivation of their souls, become sanctuaries for both students and teachers (9). This means that the school should be an integrated system of souls, not so much a place but a state of consciousness where these can flourish. Both students and teachers look forward to being in school because they feel that their spirits are nourished by the environment that there are, respect, care and reverence, they feel loved valid human predominates love instead of fear, they feel heard at heart level and there is a sense of community. .
