Mysticism is not what popular culture would have you believe.
Mysticism is not what you think. Today I was thinking of Thomas Merton and how to explain him to people unfamiliar with his life. The term Christian mystic came up in the narrative in my mind as a description of him. This phrase always strikes me as repetitive because Christianity is a mystical faith. Therefore all practicing Christians are mystics. Popular perception is that mysticism is an esoteric art but mysticism is truly as simple as a prayer from the heart. When you connect with God you are engaging in a mystical experience.
