Abstract

Değişik kültürlerde ve değişik zamanlarda mistik tecrübeye ilişkin kaydedilen kayıtlarda, ortak bir yön kendini belli etmektedir. Mistik tecrübede bilinç, hayati bir rol oynamaktadır. Buna bağlı olarak gerçek mistik tecrübenin mutlak surette niyetle bağlantılı olduğu, bu niyetin de dünyevi anlamda aşina olunan türden bir kazanım duygusundan uzak düşmesi gerektiği gerçeği tebarüz etmektedir. Bu makalenin önerdiği şudur: mistik tecrübeye ilişkin teknikler ve uygulamalar; günümüzün sosyal, çevresel ve teknolojik sorunlarıyla baş etmede istihdam edilebilir

Keywords
