Mysticism Discussion Group

MORSL’s Mysticism Discussion Group is a place to learn and converse about spiritual practices and experiences across traditions. Each session will feature a different topic of interest that will be explored through readings, music, meditations, and most of all through sharing your thinking and experiences. Students of all religious, spiritual and secular backgrounds are welcome to join in and enrich these conversations.

In the third Mysticism meeting this fall, we will explore the theme of Magic. What distinguishes a prayer from a spell? A prophet from a seer? Magic from miracle? Is all that is mysterious "magic," or merely a mystery until we understand the natural laws behind it? Perhaps magic is simply another language for understanding reality, much like science. Join us as we explore these questions through the lens of mysticism, which transcends the need for outcomes, seeking instead a deeper transformation within ourselves.
