BALAGUSHKIN, E. G. ANALYTICS OF MYSTICISM

Abstract: Mysticism is extending its influence in the “uncharmed world”. The future of science, anthropology and philosophy are often related to ideas of Cabbala or Hesychasm. In the religious studies mystic means activity of a human learning about the world from the point of “the sacred beginning”. Mysticism is nothing more but a discourse and reflection on that. Mystic experience is the first level of the activity which becomes institualized on the second functional level and serves socio-political purposes on the third level, where it takes the form of clericalism and theocracy.
