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.”

The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

“Hi Brian ~ Thought I'd drop you a note to let you know I continue to enjoy the daily quotes. Today really hit home as I'm in the process of self-imposed change. Dang it's uncomfortable and scary. Glad to know others are uncomfortably changing too. You're doing a great job!”
