To my understanding, many of humanity’s spiritual traditions seem designed with the intention of inducing, through physiological and psychological means, a psychedelic-type state of mind. Psychedelics (mushrooms?)  seem to be the potential wellspring out of which these traditions emerged.

These experiences seem to occur “on the natch” for some people (epilepsy? Migraine with aura?) but, by and large, mystical type experiences are fairly fleeting.

Some people have them regularly, which would seem to make them “mystics,” but this term would only mean people who have expansive self-transcendent experiences semi regularly.

Others rarely if ever experience this, and the idea of rich inner life is foreign to such lumpen individuals until they find themselves in the throes of an acid trip.

Singing, dancing, music, psychedelics all seem to encourage these states of mind.

At their core, these experiences seem to be more about self-transcendence than unexamined claims about the nature of reality.
