A mystical experience is a profound and often inexplicable transformation of feeling that transcends ordinary perception. It often involves a dissolving of boundaries between the ordinary and the extra-ordinary, a crack in the illusion of the everyday that opens a potential for a direct experience of something far bigger than ourselves. In such encounters, we may touch ineffable places of joy, awe and deep connection that can open up entirely new worldviews with the potential to revolutionize our relationship to self, other, and the world.
