Mysticism
in World Religions
Mysticism
is concerned with the nature of reality, the individual's
struggle to attain a clear vision of reality, and the
transformation of consciousness that accompanies such
vision. This site explores the mystical traditions of
six religions by comparing and contrasting quotations
drawn from their respective literatures. These quotations
have been organized by topic as seen below. Because
I didn't want to bias the presentation by using terminology
unique to a particular religion, I have tried to come
up with broad, descriptive names for the topics. [top]
