Excerpt from Some Evidences of Mysticism in English Poetry of the Nineteenth CenturyThere is implied in all these definitions the idea that mysticism has its origin in that dim consciousness of the beyond which is a part Of our human nature, and which is the raw material Of all religion, philosophy, and art.7 Undoubtedly, there is a hunger and thirst Of the-soul, as well as Of the body, and the same power which gave the body certain senses, together with a capacity and a tendency to satisfy them, has given the soul certain capacities and tendencies which can be satisfied only by knowledge and love. All philosophy Of life, no matter what trend Of thought it follows, attempts to satisfy this twofold longing, but mysticism is differ entiated from other forms Of philosophy in the manner in which it seeks that satisfaction.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
