When the western civilization finally tired of religious fanaticism, the mysticism again have become available for the attention of people. This is area of the esoteric, an area of concepts about the multiplicity of spiritual ways and methodologies of its implementation. New Age have began. We are still at the very beginning. The globalism as a natural result of the development of transport, leads us to the need to unite in a whole the disparate elements of different cultures, and this primarily affects the spiritual sphere, the sphere of ideas.
The need to negotiate brings together even the most irreconcilable enemies - world religions, sometimes makes them remember that each of them is not a political organization, but a tradition of the spiritual way, which has its theoretical and practical foundations.
Meanwhile, in society significantly increased the percentage of people believing in some Spiritual Source but not belonging for the main global religions or other traditional forms of mysticism. These are the main consumers of the 'information soup' of the mysticism of New Age. Now there are masters and literature, so a person seeking to know own mystical nature, can choose among a huge amount of ideologies and methodologies.
When making an own choice, you should be remembered that ideology is always only an addition to the methodology. Ideology allows adherents to speak the same language for the understanding of the reality in a correct way according to the egregor's ideals. The availability of methodology is the criterion that distinguishes the spiritual path from superstition. The methodologies of achieving a mystical states is the result of research of every secret science, art, and craft.
There is a huge number of schools, currents and teachings, which on the one hand, are the carriers of the necessary knowledge, but on the other hand, they are the ideal entry filter separating the invited from the elected. In general people tend to sectarian thinking because a small egregor is a hungry egregor, with all the ensuing consequences. But you should not make a conclusion that the need to avoid communication and training.
The modern school education has taught the perception of most people to the model of cognition 'this is the question and that's the answer, we will test in tomorrow, the word for the word'. Moreover, both questions and answers most often due to advance training course. It is do not succeed in the secret science. You can save to your hard drive and to learn many sacred texts and to quote a great teachers, but not to approach the states of the unity of consciousness and reality.
Nevertheless, we must have respect for the any archivarius from esotericism. Modern psy-culture is very similar to the broken mirror from the old tale, and from the fragments of this mirror every adept collects own psychoenergy science and own secret art, and you should be able to find these fragments. And well, when there is where to search. The main for the assessment of the proposed material is two criteria - the availability of methodology and the presence of The Mystery. Methodology and examples of its implementation shows the practicality of the proposed training. And The Mystery - is the only real mentor and the best vaccination against stop in development and against sectarianism.
The area known to our perception is extremely small and is only a small island in the ocean of the unknown. The unknown is by definition - not known, but is still in the field of personal perception. For example, we know that the horizon is not end of world. And beyond the unknown is the realm of Mystery. The usual ways not helps in this realm, all that we call logic, intelligence. The common sense cannot be a full-fledged guides too, as it based only off the known area.
Often a person limits oneself to the known area of own competences and does not get to the place where does not feel solid ground under a feet. I don't mean that such behavior is bad. Conservatism is necessary for survival, to a certain degree. But if you wish to touch the Mystery, you are necessary to reorient the mind not on creation of answers for an explanation of everything and all, but on the search of questions, and bravely will step to area of the unknown. You are to be ready to a meeting with The Mystery. Any answers vary depending on a point of view, an emotional attitude to the topic, a language environment. The real question is more durable, it is a phenomenon of a excellent quality level.
This is another, much more active mode of work of all structures of consciousness, which involves a more unstable picture of reality, where not everything is clear and understandable, and what was previously explained can and should be questioned. This mode is often uncomfortable at first for a beginner who is accustomed to experience comfort in the conditions of information certainty, and not vice versa. And if this habit is not to redirected, people often moves away from mystical practices after a while, or they takes some of mystical practices to improve their internal and social comfort. I want to note that is normally and a very healthy approach that allows you to improve the quality of everyday life at the expense of unusual skills.
Someone is able to go even further, beyond the competence of the mind, while trying not to lose it. Such person can to adapt to life in conditions of uncertainty, in the region of the unknown, where is lived The Mystery. Let The Mystery into your life, filling every moment with a breath of magic, and then, with the time, you own will become a magical being, the explorer of the wonderful world.
The mystic is able to summon The Mystery into own life, and then life will starts filled with magic. It is the hint: you can to shout. Invitation of The Mystery is the primary initiation of mystic. Sometimes it is veiled in own experiences, sometimes it is framed in the ritual in witchcraft traditions. Anyway it is required for activate the sleeping mental matrices responsible for hypersensitive perception.
You can summon The Mystery into your life, can transmit your life to The Great Power of The Spirit Source and you can ask The Mystery for inspiring and mentoring of youself, in any form, at any time of your life. Preferably out loud. If you're lucky, the Power will respond to your call and gradually manifest itself in your life.
