The Meaning and Value of Mysticism by E. Herman is a comprehensive exploration of the mystical experience and its significance in various religious traditions. The book delves into the nature of mysticism, examining its different forms and manifestations, and exploring the underlying principles and beliefs that inform it. The author draws on a wide range of sources, including the writings of mystics themselves, as well as contemporary scholarship in the field of religious studies. The book also considers the role of mysticism in personal spiritual growth and development, and its potential to offer insight and guidance in navigating the challenges of life. Ultimately, The Meaning and Value of Mysticism offers a thoughtful and engaging meditation on the enduring appeal and relevance of the mystical experience, both within and beyond traditional religious contexts.1915. In this book, the author endeavored to suggest the meaning and value of mysticism for his day. His conviction that mysticism is essentially a spirit and not a system, or even a method, has precluded anything like a detailed application of mystical principles to the movements of the day. At all points Mr. Herman tried to show how the mystical element may be brought to bear upon the Christian thought and life of the day, and to suggest where its dynamic and transmuting power can go to shape the Christian thought and life of tomorrow.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
