I really like this short definition of a spiritually elevated mystic- from a Rosicrucian book.."Unto Thee I Grant"-
"THEIR PLEASURES ARE MODERATE, AND THEREFORE THEY ENDURE; THEIR REPOSE IS SHORT, BUT SOUND AND UNDISTURBED. THEIR BLOOD IS PURE; THEIR MINDS ARE SERENE, AND THE PHYSICIAN FINDETH NOT THE WAY TO THEIR HABITATIONS."
Comment
Humbleness is the sign of an elevated being.
The feeling 'I am the
world, the world is myself' becomes quite natural; once it is es-
tablished, there is just no way of being selfish. To be selfish
means to covet, to acquire, accumulate on behalf of the part
against the whole.
“Your expectation of something unique and dramatic, of some wonderful explosion, is merely hindering and delaying your Self Realization. You are not to expect an explosion, for the explosion has already happened - at the moment when you were born, when you realized yourself as Being-Knowing-Feeling. There is only one mistake you are making: you take the inner for the outer and the outer for the inner. What is in you, you take to be outside you and what is outside, you take to be in you. The mind and feelings are external, but you take them to be intimate. You believe the world to be objective, while it is entirely a projection of your psyche. That is the basic confusion and no new explosion will set it right! You have to think yourself out of it. There is no other way.”
