Variety: Luke 10v21

At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, ‘I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do. (Luke 10:21) 

As its Greek root form mu (closed eyes or lips) implies, mysticism is pointing to something that is somehow hidden and cannot be easily seen or talked about

As children of God, we are called to live as those who life in the hidden Kingdom of  God and, therefore: 

• skip over the intermediaries and go straight to God.
• experience the divine as an intimate encounter with ultimate reality.
• know beyond ideas,
• feel deeper than emotions,
• are fundamentally changed by that which is unchanging.
• see beyond the turmoil, the rights & wrongs, the good guys & villains to the radiant heart of things.
• love with an heart that is open to the other, rather than standing in judgement over the other.
• see the connected core of reality that is hidden to those who neither desire it nor search for it Lives
