The Mystical Experience ends the world ofduality and conflict forever and is one of clarity, great joy, deep peace andtranquility. The Experience is not of this world, but radiates from within.

Andfrom A Course in Miracles: This isthe invitation to the Holy Spirit. I have said already that I can reach up and bring the Holy Spirit down to you, but I canbring Him to you only at your own invitation. TheHoly Spirit is in your right mind, as He was in Mine. The Bible says, May the mind be in you thatwas also in Christ Jesus, and uses this as ablessing. It is the blessing of miracle-mindedness. It asks that you may thinkas I thought, joining with me in Christthinking. (T-5.I.3:1-6)
