Evelyn Underhill, Mysticism - 6


pp. 40-41 (discusses how the mystic has a way of knowing that is beyond normal sensory perception)


Makes me think of being in a big house in which one room contains the power source for the rest of the house. But, there are radios, televisions, and stereos on in nearly every room. It is only after turning off every switch that one can begin to hear the hum of the True Power Source. Even then, one can only enter that one room by placing on its door the hand that truly desires to enter and then only when the Power Source issues the invitation. HINT: The Power Source issues an invitation at even the slightest whiff of true desire.

I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. - Isaiah 43:19~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"And I heard a voice from heaven like the sound of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder; the voice I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their harps, and they sing a new song before the throne..." Rev. 14:2-3a~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation. And you will say in that day: Give thanks to the Lord, for he has done gloriously; let this be known in all the earth. Shout aloud and sing for joy, O royal Zion, for great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel." Isaiah 12:3-6
