#277 Mysticism
Inspired by: Vernon HowardDiscuss this Big Idea in the Forums!
“Mysticism is:
a. An advanced state of inner enlightenment.
b. Union with Reality.
c. A state of genuinely satisfying success.
d. Insight into an entirely new world of living.
e. An intuitive grasp of Truth, above and beyond intellectual reasoning.
f. A personal experience, in which we are happy and healthy human beings.”
~ Vernon Howard from Mystic Path to Cosmic Power
According to VH, that describes genuine mysticism. “Pseudo-mysticism seeks to evade reality; authentic mysticism wants to live it.”
More:
“Mysticism is not this or that particular cup on the table; it is the water poured into all of them.”
Wow. Isn’t that beautiful?
What can we expect if we practice mysticism? According to VH:
“Happiness is yours in the here and now. The painful states of anxiety and loneliness are abolished permanently. Financial affairs are not financial problems. You are at ease with yourself. You are not at the mercy of unfulfilled cravings. Confusion is replaced with clarity. There is a relieving answer to every tormenting question. You possess a True Self. Something can be done about every unhappy condition. While living in the world you can be inwardly detached from its sorrows to live with personal peace and sanity.”

Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit on the one-yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game, one foot from a winning touchdown.
