Abstract

Mysticism is the belief that there is a hidden meaning in life and nature. It is the belief that advocates the merger of ordinary, the human being, into the extraordinary, i.e. the everlasting entity. It also refers to the spiritual gaining and understanding of the ultimate knowledge inaccessible to the intellect, through introspection, rumination and self-surrender. According to Caroline Spurgeon.
