[Dialogue] {Spam?} Re: JWM as mystic

[McCabe, Diann A]

Yes, indeed.  Sometimes I think the Other World is my imagination opening to shear possibility, and the "world" here and now is my imagination trying to interpret what others expect of me (others meaning everyone who has gone before me as well as everyone who stands before me).  This business of being intentional is difficult.  Diann McCabe

I think there is a generational / historical thing going on here as well.  Lots of water gone under the bridge.  I was frightened when I took RS-1 and one of the teachers had a southern accent and was a baptist . . .  those times after WWII in 'middle America' were way different re:  ease with stuff.  
 
When we got into the new religious mode and other world, I was way out of my background and depth, and kind of following along.  I was also projecting on others "older and wiser" that they must know what they are doing, so I can just follow . . . The topic of mysticism did not come up much in Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church (Missouri Synod) or around my aunts and uncles and grandparents . . .

As near as I can tell, he avoided talking about  mysticism entirely, because he wanted to make the point that life takes  place in the here and now and as we live in the here and now, we sometimes  see through to the profound. >    Wayne,  Thanks for this.  Do you think St. John of the Cross or Teresa of Avila would   have said otherwise?  Jann
