Excerpt from The Theory and Practice of Mysticism
I should like to mediate between these two extremes. I should like to make use of the studies of others, and try to show how the theories they have set forth may be applied to the actual practice of Mysticism, and by making my practical suggestions depend upon scientific foundations, give the art of being a Mystic a firmer basis than is afforded by the little tract, "How to Wake the Solar Plexus."
Too long has Mysticism been regarded as a peculiar thing, attributed to a few peculiar people: - a mental aberration, a theological heresy, an ascetic life. All these, and more, have been at times attached to it; but the thing itself persists.
