This is a guide to mysticism: one of the most enduring and
fascinating aspects of religious life, and one of the most
difficult to unpick. Mysticism is one of the most enduring and
fascinating aspects of religious life, and one of the most
difficult to unpick. It has, over the centuries, inspired many of
the leading figures in different faiths to seek a sense of union
with God or with the spiritual forces in the universe, and is
increasingly part of the spiritual mainstream. Designed for
students grappling with this complicated area, this will enable
readers to understand the nature of mysticism, and to examine in
detail the traditional methods used by mystics in seeking an
intimate understanding of the spiritual world. Including a detailed
survey of mystical trends within all the main world religions, and
case studies of the lives of important mystics, "Mysticism: A Guide
for the Perplexed" also examines the nature of the mystical
lifestyle, and examines the extent to which ordinary people can
develop a sense of personal mysticism. "Continuum's Guides for the
Perplexed" are clear, concise and accessible introductions to
thinkers, writers and subjects that students and readers can find
especially challenging - or indeed downright bewildering.
Concentrating specifically on what it is that makes the subject
difficult to grasp, these books explain and explore key themes and
ideas, guiding the reader towards a thorough understanding of
demanding material.
