This is a translation of four chapters of Mysticism: the nature and development of spiritual consciousness, written by Evelyn Underhill, into Persian. It is about, as the name says, what is myticism and who is mystic. Mysticism is a classic book in its field and reamains the pre-eminent study of humanity’s spiritual consciousness. Drawing on the voices of such great mystics as Meister Eckhart, St Jhon of the Cross, Rumi, Underhill offers a unique account of the multi-dimensional world of the world, from psychology and symbolism to visions and contemplation. she both introduces mysticism and examines the stages of mystical awakening that lead the human soul from a life of sense to a spiritual life in a harmony with the Absolute.
