What Is Mysticism? is a comprehensive exploration of the nature, history, and significance of mysticism, written by the renowned British mystic and scholar, Evelyn Underhill. The book examines the different forms of mysticism found in various religious traditions, including Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam, and explores the commonalities and differences among them. Underhill delves into the mystical experience itself, exploring the nature of consciousness, the role of the senses, and the relationship between the individual and the divine. She also discusses the historical development of mysticism, from the ancient world to the present day, and considers the social, cultural, and psychological factors that have shaped it. Throughout the book, Underhill emphasizes the transformative power of mysticism, both for the individual and for society as a whole, and argues that it has the potential to bring about profound spiritual and ethical change. Written in a clear and engaging style, What Is Mysticism? is an essential read for anyone interested in the nature of spirituality and the human search for meaning.THIS 18 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Practical Mysticism: A Little Book for Normal People, by Evelyn Underhill.
