520 |a The mystic experience is found in all races and religions. It claims attention as a non-rational, yet real, experience. It may be defined as an immediate awareness of the nature of reality. The mystic feels a joyous certainty of the truth of his religious ideas. The significance of the experience is not in its psycho-physical phenomena. The Orient knew long ago how to induce the experience by normal means. Nor is its significance in its revelation of truth for no new truth is attained in the experience. Its significance is that it gives emotional value to any world-view whatsoever and makes the individual unshakably certain of his worth and security in the system. Examples from monistic, theistic, and non-theistic mystics. Each new world-view must develop its own mystics for mysticism tends to be a conservative force.
