Mysticism is the word given to the recognition - across cultures, centuries, and continents - that everything is ultimately One. Some name this God, others, Truth, many call it Love. Although the intensity and depth of mystical vision is consistently described as inexpressible, an extensive, beautiful body of literature has been created by those who have travelled the via mystica, experienced Union as absolute reality, and shared their experiences. This course will study the characteristics of mysticism, and the ways various writers have translated their revelations, Love, and peace beyond understanding into art.
