I'm curious why you always link mystical experience with religion? I've always considered that religion blocks our access to the "traces" of the Divine within by trying to define them. I would think linking the two would obscure you results.<BR/><BR/> 4:35 PM<BR/><BR/><B>you seem to be defining religion in a negative way. So any positives that come from it you just define as not religion. Mystical experience is the essence of religion. It's at the base of all organized religious impulse, its' the foundation of the existence o the religious phenomenon.</B>J.L.
