Mystics view the world with a sense of wonderment, seeing beauty in the benign and magnificence in the mundane. The great mystics of history (William Blake, St. Francis of Assisi, Plato, Joan of Arc, St. Teresa of Avila, Hildegard von Bingen, Meister Eckhart, Lao Tsu, my friend Tomas Meyers, just to name a few) had a connection to the great mysteries, to nature and animals, to the oneness of all. This feeling goes beyond normal mental and emotional activity. When we view the world this way, any one of us can be a mystic, and can achieve a superconscious state. In this elevated state, knowledge beyond reasoning comes to us. Achieving a cosmic consciousness state reveals truths to us that we can use in our lives, and knowledge that we can use to improve the conditions on earth. It is up to each of us to find our inner mystic. It's up to the inner mystic in each of us to bring what we envision into the physical world. Being a mystic isn't just sitting on a mountaintop meditating forever, it is bringing that divine energy down from the mountain top and putting it into action.
