Descrizione
Riepilogo:The intuitions emerging from the concrete life experiences of the mystic are part of the heritage of humankind and might be considered seed material for a form of "spiritual genetics." When the well-developed mystic consciousness is present, nothing else matters more than the compulsion to nourish the divine spark within, until it bursts into an all-consuming fire. In the process, the mystic gives up whatever is not God. Energy normally expended in maintaining the fragile ego-stability is now released and available for ever-widening circles of joy, compassion and loving service. This, in many cases, may be misunderstood by others and the mystic often has to stand all alone. The mystic is one who really knows, one who is really at home in the universe. Who can be more important to the whole human race than those who remind us of who we really are?
