Sunday Workshop: The Making of the Mystic

Description
The mystic allows for a change of subjective boundaries whichlead to a momentary release of the limitations of the rational approach to daily life, allowing an inner movement in how we perceive, see and understand situations. This rearrangement lifts us beyond mental understanding and into a new love for which we are waiting. Christians are taught to love by Christ but not so many really expand their heart and come to know what this truly means.

Mysticism is the next step beyond sensitivity, whether we understand it or not. There is a process developing in each of us: Awakening - Illumination - and Enlightenment. Let us ponder the process together and see if indeed, we can love with a new love.
