MYSTIC
-- a person who seeks by contemplation and self-surrender to obtain unity with or absorption into the Deity or the absolute, or who believes in the spiritual apprehension of truths that are beyond the intellect.I am in the "or" category by this definition - I regretfully cannot surrender myself.
This morning I felt myself to be the only mystic in the woods - the other myriad life-forms being unencumbered by "intellectect", having many other dimensions of being, blessed things. .(The word "silly" originally meant "Blessed", so silly things !)
So here we are, the unblessed who just might save the farm.
