In Western religions, including in Christianity, God has usually been seen as the great outsider, the first cause, the omnipotent master and ultimate judge. This course examines the approach to the divine within us. It explains the thinking of the Chinese classic the Tao Te Ching and the teaching of the Muslim Sufis.

Paths of Mysticism
 |
Mystics were extraordinary persons who believed they were in touch with the creative Mind behind our universe. Though many claims made in the name of religion can be shown to spring from illusion, mysticism as such can be rooted in a valid human perception of reality. Reaching out to God is climbing a mountain. The course describes different paths mystics have followed, ranging from Attention to Penetration. (in preparation) |
