Didn't see this new topic created for it. My answer is still no.

If you go that route where does it end? Why stop there, why not create separate forums for each branch. One for each branch of yoga, one for the yoga mystics, one for each school of Zen, one for the Zen mystics, one for the Gnostics, one for the Hermetics, one for the Cabalists, one for the Vedantics, one for the Protestants, one for the Catholics, one for the Christians, one for the Christian mystics, one for the Sufi mystics, one for the Taoists, etc etc you catch my drift... And everybody will be in their own little safe corner, without possible exposure to anything that might be contradictory to whatever they're attached to.

Right...

All that separation doesn't sound like the oneness a mystic experiences, symbolizes, or stands for and beliefs in.

Tell me, is the following mystical, spiritual, or religious?

Quote:

The Great Way isn’t difficult
for those who are unattached to their preferences.
Let go of longing and aversion,
and everything will be perfectly clear.
When you cling to a hairbreadth of distinction,
heaven and earth are set apart.
If you want to realize the truth,
don’t be for or against.
The struggle between good and evil
is the primal disease of the mind.
Not grasping the deeper meaning,
you just trouble your mind’s serenity.
As vast as infinite space,
it is perfect and lacks nothing.
But because you select and reject,
you can’t perceive its true nature.
Don’t get entangled in the world;
don’t lose yourself in emptiness.
Be at peace in the oneness of things,
and all errors will disappear by themselves.

I think the point was to separate more so direct experience.



The ordinary experience and life is it.
