Quote:
| From time immemorial, certain men and women appear to have developed their consciousness far beyond the "normal" level or state which the rest of humanity has taken for granted as "life". These are the mystics. They are of all times and places, of the East as well as the West. The true mystics are not culture-bound. They have gone "beyond". They may well have to take into consideration the prevailing culture for purposes of communication. But their message is for mankind. Or more accurately, for those human beings who are seeking, those who willlisten. In the words of one mystical master, "those who have ears to hear". It is the ultimate human message, from ultimate human beings. It is the deep calling to the deep in us. If our hearts can but hear! |
