Jean Houston
New World Library, 2004
Mystical Dogs is an astounding book
Jean Houston is one of the most remarkable figures in Humanistic Psychology and consciousness studies of the 20th and 21st century. This book is simply luminous and a great treasure.

Hats off to Jean and her brilliant and loyal canine friends.

Mystical Hope: Trusting in the Mercy of God (Cloister Books)4 reviews
Cynthia Bourgeault
Cowley Publications, 2001
Metaphysical depth combined with spiritual practicality
At a time when people are yearning for good news, Cynthia Bourgeault's new book invites us to find our way to the hope that does not disapoint or fail. In our usual way of looking at things, hope is tied to an outcome: "I hope I get this job" or "I hope my mother gets well." The Bible introduces us to a different kind of hope that has its source not in events but in the mercy of God, a lifeblood ...

The Mystical Mind: Probing the Biology of Religious Experience (Theology and the Sciences) 7 reviews
Eugene G. D'Aquili, Andrew B. Newberg
Augsburg Fortress Publishers, 1999
Heavy Reading--Excellent Results
The text of this book is difficult to work through. It is not designed for the light reader or the quick student. Taking twice as long to read this book was a drain, but the payoff was excellent. He does not simply give facts, but works to tie them together into a specific working hypothesis, which is yet to be proven. Yet he has asked the correct questions and cannot be faulted in not ...

The Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church12 reviews
Vladimir Lossky
St. Vladimir's Seminary Press, 1997
Superb and Serious
Vladimir Lossky's "Mystical Theology' is one of the most profound books ever written about Christianity. It is a superb volume for armchair theologians, clerics of every stripe, those seeking a greater understanding of God in Trinity and human nature, and those wishing a lucid explanation of the differences between the Holy Orthodox Church and more occidental, rational, and secular forms of ...

The Mystical City of God: A Popular Abridgement of the Divine History and Life of the Virgin Mother of God12 reviews
Mary of Agreda
Tan Books, 1978
Amazing
This is a truly beautiful book, providing background details on the life of the Holy Virgin Mary and the creation of the universe. The most amazing part about this book is that the details make so much sense and are so logical, yet are so intricate and colorful, that it is impossible to think of it as a work of fiction by a devout nun. I have not yet completed the book, but when you read enough ...

The Mystical Qabalah 31 reviews
Dion Fortune
Glastonbury Books, 2008
Excels, Despite It's Cultural and Dated Prejudice
What others below this review have stated regarding cultural bias and archaic science is true. However, we should always wear our ethno-culturocentric colored glasses when reading anything over fifty years old. Dion Fortune is an excellent writer, nonetheless, and her numbered paragraphs system makes each paragraph worth digesting on its own. Compare her writing to MacGregor Mather's "Kabbalah ...

Mystical Paths5 reviews
Susan Howatch
HarperCollins Publishers Ltd, 1996
Conflict, replicas, and "The Dark!"
Susan Howatch once again shows brilliance in characterisation, expression of spiritual truths, and integration of Jungian psychology in creating this strange and rather macabre picture of conflict, intensity, and the darkness of deception. While the plot has notable deficiencies, particularly in some major scenes in the last quarter of the action, the author manages to present a deep and ...

Mystical Dimensions of Islam6 reviews
Annemarie Schimmel
The University of North Carolina Press, 1978
The Awe of the Sufi Path
Annemarie Schimmel is probably the foremost scholar on the Sufi poet Jelalluddin Rumi, whose poetry is suffused with love and awe of the Divine. In much of her book Prof. Schimmel projects the same love, love of Islam and its people, most especially its mystics, the Sufis. It is also extremely informative about the history of Sufism and the different branches of its mystical path. If you are ...

The Mystical Language Of Icons8 reviews
Solrunn Nes
Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2005
Informative and Inspirational
I read "The Language of Icons" with the intention of learning more about the mode of religious art most characteristic of Eastern Christianity. The book far exceeded my expectations. I learned more about icons than I ever would have hoped. The reproductions of representative icons were beautiful and luminous. Moreover, the text was deeply spiritual and inspiring. The reader is drawn to ...

Mystical Christianity: A Psychological Commentary on the Gospel of John3 reviews
John Sanford
Crossroad Classic, 1994
A Must!
Sanford's MYSTICAL CHRISTIANITY is a must read for anyone with a particular interest in the Gospel According to John or a Jungian interpretation of biblical texts. Sanford is more of a Jungian Therapist than he is a Biblical Scholar, yet his Biblical Scholarship is up to the task of offering this psychological commentary on the Gospel According to John from a Jungian perspective.

Entering the Castle: Exploring Your Mystical Experience of God: 9-CD Live Lecture!46 reviews
Caroline Myss
Hay House, 2007
One of her best!
I have only words of gratitude and praise for this particular work of Caroline Myss. Having read her books and listened to many of her other audio lectures over the years, for me this was the most powerful, honest, and uplifting. I did not find any part of this lecture to be "harsh" or "shrill" (as some have commented) -- but instead found her to be at her most passionate. Love radiates from this ...

Shamanic Wisdom in the Pyramid Texts: The Mystical Tradition of Ancient Egypt4 reviews
Jeremy Naydler
Inner Traditions, 2004
Traveling through the gates of death for superbundant life
Jeremy Naydler has rescued the deep wisdom of Egypt - experiential insight into the deeper reality and how we can travel there for initiation and empowerment - from the Egyptologists. For all of us who have long suspected, or remembered, that the palace tombs and pyramid texts of Egypt are about much, much more than funerary arrangements, here is ringing confirmation that the Egyptians traveled ...
