MYSTICAL
Quotes
 |
“The fact that modern physics, the manifestation of
an extreme specialisation of the rational mind, is
now making contact with mysticism, the essence of
religion and manifestation of an extreme specialisation
of the intuitive mind, shows very beautifully the
unity and complementary nature of the rational and
intuitive modes of consciousness; of the yang and
the yin.”
-- Fritjof
Capra

“The
mystical bond of brotherhood makes all men brothers”
-- Thomas Carlyle

I
firmly believe that all human beings have access to
extraordinary energies and powers. Judging from accounts
of mystical experience, heightened creativity, or
exceptional performance by athletes and artists, we
harbor a greater life than we know.”
-- Jean
Huston

The
true, or higher part of the self is always seeking
the state that mystics talk about, the state in which
we are filled with a universal love and a peaceful
euphoria.
-- James Redfield
"Deep
down, all of us are probably aware that some kind
of mystical evolution is our true task. Yet we suppress
the notion with considerable force because to admit
it is to admit that most of our political gyrations,
religious dogmas, social ambitions, and financial
ploys are not merely counter-productive but trivial."
-- Tom Robbins

"Every
one of us is a mystic. We may or may not realize it,
we may not even like it. But whether we know it or
not, whether we accept it or not, mystical experience
is always there, inviting us on a journey of ultimate
discovery. We have been given the gift of life in
this perplexing world to become who we ultimately
are: creatures of boundless love, caring compassion,
and wisdom. Existence is a summons to the eternal
journey of the sage - the sage we all are, if only
we could see."
-- Brother
Wayne Teasdale

What
does mysticism really mean? It means the way to attain
knowledge. It's close to philosophy, except in philosophy
you go horizontally while in mysticism you go vertically.
-- Elie

“There's
a collective knowing that a dimension of reality exists
beyond the material plane, and that sense of knowing
is causing a mystical resurgence on the planet today.
It's not just children who are looking for a missing
piece. It is a very mature outlook to question the
nature of our reality.”
-- Marianne
Williamson
