Discover mysticism as a practical path for everyday life.
This guide presents mysticism as an art you can train for, not a distant mystery. It connects longing for God with concrete steps you can take to deepen your spiritual practice.
Mysticism as Practice explains how the search for God begins in the heart and leads to disciplined, everyday disciplines. It frames mysticism as a usable, modern approach that balances study with quiet, prayer, and contemplation, illustrated through approachable examples and historical voices. The author shows how conversion, purification, and sustained contemplative practice can transform life without requiring dramatic renunciation.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the theory and practice of mysticism, arguing that it is a practical art grounded in the universal human longing for communion with God. The author starts from the premise that this desire implies both our essential incompleteness and a prior, partial satisfaction. They posit that any longing necessarily implies its fulfillment, which for the mystic can only be the infinite God. Thus, they see the yearning for God as proof of God's existence and a prophecy of his presence. From this foundation, the book outlines the seven practical steps of the Mystic Way, through which the soul progresses from longing to union with God. Drawing on historical and contemporary sources, the author elucidates each step with clarity and nuance. This book offers a fresh and comprehensive guide to the nature and practice of mysticism, providing valuable insights for both the curious and the devout.
