What is a Mystic? (12 Signs You're One)

A mystic is a person who seeks to awaken, glimpse, and reclaim the innate spiritual Oneness at the core of their being. In other words, a mystic is a spiritual seeker driven to surrender their ego and one who orients their whole life toward deeply integrating the primordial truth that they are an inseparable part of the Divine.

It’s true! There is a fine line between mental illness and mysticism; this happened to me! I thought I was schizophrenic for years, but my journey led me to self-realization about my true path. The ‘experiences’ of connecting with Source, other beings and other realms is what makes someone ‘different’ and mystical in nature.

[greatergood]

The true Mystic leads a life like all others, the difference is, the Mystic knows it is in control. Have you ever thought of an old friend to have them show up at you door, or the everyday experience of thinking of a song to have it start up on your radio . These are mystical experiences, you see, you have created it.

Everytime someone dies i play the song natural mystic by bob Marley
It's a special song that has defined the most intense moments.
Watch it when his body is driven to the funeral and you see the ppl line the country roads for miles in Jamaica. It touches my soul.
We are all dust in the wind. The mist. Your mystical soul.
There's a natural mystic blowing through the air
If you listen carefully now you will hear
This could be the first trumpet
Might as well be the last
Many more will have to suffer
Many more will have to die, don't ask me why

Things are not the way they used to be
I won't tell no lie
One and all have to face reality now
Though I've tried to find the answer
To all the questions they ask
Though I know it's impossible
To go livin' through the past - don't tell no lie

There's a natural mystic blowing through the air
Can't keep them down
If you listen carefully now you will hear

There's a natural mystic, blowing through the air

This could be the first trumpet
Might as well be the last
Many more will have to suffer
Many more will have to die, don't ask me why

There's a natural mystic blowing through the air
I won't tell no lie
If you listen carefully now you will hear
There's a natural mystic blowing through the air

Such a natural mystic, blowing through the air
There's a natural mystic blowing through the air
Such a natural mystic, blowing through the air
Such a natural mystic, blowing through the air
Such a natural mystic, blowing through the air...

I turn this on and meditate to it when I am feeling lost. Thank you for uploading this. ❤

Isn't it wonderful when such wonderful connections are found hidden amongst the bramble. Then to enjoy eating the fruits as the thorns allow you to go past them and enjoy the next ramble. 🙏

I had the oddest experience..met a humongous white cat with black stripes!

[heatherstratfold]

Thank you for being a light in the darkness
I needed to hear this today
I’m really grateful and appreciate your words
So much

Underhill helped me to understand as did Helen Keller. Thank you for clarifying the experience. The inner unity with Divinity is found within. Beautifully said.

Wonderful. Thank you for sharing these thoughts and for the affirmations and reaffirmations that I feel from them. In your comments you have a sidebar mention of mental illnesses and say something to the effect of these topics needing a whole book to explore. You also talk about mainstream society. I have thought of mainstream society as if it was a single entity that I sometimes have felt in tune with and sometimes almost completely rejected by. Perhaps this is the feeling of being a wolf, in a pack and then a lone Wolf. Your website, work, and the spontaneous and heartfelt enthusiasm which it generates I think demonstrates that you may be a lone wolf but one is never truly alone, indeed surely non-duality shows that one is part of a greater one that is there is a thin line between alone and all one and it is the misapprehension of this that is loneliness. It is my experience that whatever I have from time to time feared and believed, even in the certain belief that I was somehow born to be broken and misunderstood and lonely and unloved and unlovable and in fighting against this slipped inexorably into hell such that I saw everything I had fought so hard to protect and conserve and nurture slipping away and judging myself a failure and doomed to hell that I was mistaken. Hope moved into my blind spot and I lost sight of all hope. Hope did not lose sight of me and showed me my blind spot. I think this is the thing that is ineffable, it is what creates a sort of tragicomic inevitability in writing about something that acts with anything but compassion other than ourselves. Doubt eats away at everything until it eats the one thing it was meant to consume which is doubt itself. Mental illness is but a step to wellness just as to sin is to err on the path to becoming whole. For me I call it stubbornness or perhaps it’s humility. There’ve been times when others have thought me suicidal and sitting with people who are giving voice to suicidal impulses or who have attempted suicide I can understand why people might have thought that and in having felt despair in myself and in others I can empathise with why people would be afraid and seek help for me when in fact I can say without a shadow of doubt I have never once attempted or given weight to such a notion as I don’t think the universe needs my help to end me should that be the right thing to do and I do not think the universe nor for that matter my body keeps me here to torment me either, and so such anguish and illness is all part of a misapprehension and failure to appreciate that which is in our blind spot being mirrored in a subtly translated way into that which we see as somehow other than us, our society, our community, our commonality, our communion, our Union, our unity. Perhaps it takes a book. Perhaps it takes a moment. Look after your illness: as I is to We, so am I and we to one. Our common passion is our compassion, our oneness. It is our humanity. It is our being. It transcends our species in just the same way that our souls transcend our mortal lives. Einstein had some wonderful things to say in this regard that perhaps you already have read and which put it far more succinctly and I realise that in part the side bar was there because there are people like me who have been in a bit of a quandary about what to make of mental health. All I would say is it’s ok: relax or release whatever personal worries you may have and remember the difference between drowning and floating is but to believe you are ok and to breathe and have faith. Life goes on; it’s most charitable and creative and surprises even the complete fool who thinks he knows everything and before realising the sound of serene silence that is the ineffable paradox of the beautiful joyful universal eternal truth, some holographic shard of awe that is like gazing at the Sun. It is truly awful and it is truly full of awe and it is but a mirror. Take time. There is always enough time for that which truly matters. In the beginning and the end I turn towards kindness. My heart pumps blood that contains the iron that the stars made. I breathe the breath that all living creatures since the dawn of time have affected and that I affect now. I do not believe in evil other than it is live back to front, like a dog barking at its own reflection. I believe that for a time we may believe in mental illnesses and collaborate in seeking mental wellnesses. Just as all religions try to explain and put into words that which is blasphemous to put into words and is ineffable, and all artists and craftspeople try to express in so many ways that which it is idolatry to claim is that which is being perceived and is working with and through the artist to be made into form, life can be seen as a curse or a tragedy or as a great suffering yet I believe it is a greater and divine blessing and comedy and act of unconditional love that is to be human and to experience life itself and to anyone lonely in darkness, cursing themselves perhaps or accepting some diagnosis that they believe validates their invalidity I say I am with you and by the light of my candle I can see the extraordinary presence that casts a huge smiling shadow behind you. Even in a total eclipse the sun’s light is still there as a gossamer lace of its Corona and it is in the darkest of times that we see truly our unity and accept with humility that our ego is not all of who one is and I rather thank it for its service rather like a hermit crab might thank the seashells it inhabits. No need to stay in them any longer than is appropriate. And no need to curse them as our enemies. Thank you for your errors and your sins and your despair and your darkness. You have shown the truth and the light and life itself in a way that places them beyond all doubt and I am in awe of you for doing that and realise that you are theirs too. As all things bear the negative principle of yin and the positive principle of Yang, so there is a third principle of Qi, immaterial vitality that makes them harmonious. Tao produces Unity. Unity produces duality. Duality produces Trinity. Trinity produces all things. Masculine. Feminine. Divine transcendental Union. Life and death itself. Thank you from the depths of my heart and soul. For ever and ever Amen. 😌🙏🏼

[lindaknapp]

Thank you.♡ As I listen I am also doing a checklist ~ yes, no, maybe, for sure, never thought of it like that, (more often that). The final thoughts are these; I think yes/agree I am that and then ask me, have I done enough to claim that? Am I missing things obvious/obscure, oblivious? I guess I'll just have to wait and see. Loved this video♡

I stumbled on your article on Spiritual Alchemy. I intended to read and go on about my day. I ended up clicking a link in one article and it took me to another. This continued for three hours. Once I saw you had a YouTube channel, I had no choice but to subscribe.

This is a well-written video! I could do without the robot voice because that doesn't serve the overall message.

Knowing without a knower. I & I. Lover merging into the Beloved. Non Dual Awareness ♥︎♡

[jacksonaguilar]

The people commenting here claiming they are mystics or have experienced mysticism missed the whole plot of this video. Publicly claiming that you are one is just a gratification of the ego, which is already a violation to mysticism. Once you understand or actually have experienced the real deal..you won't need to flunt it. You may have been on the process or few steps away, but your ego came in the way and insisted that you celebrate. Real enlightenment is not that simple and all rainbows. It's either you fully understand it and make you smile knowing you can harness it, OR you'll go mad to the point of losing your mind and even your soul, that you don't even want to speak or hear about it.

[johnambrose]

This is Confusionism!
It gives great information all over the place and covers much ground both in a historical and Spiritual sense, yet within the conversions and pathways indicated is much negativity and accumulative modes which blur the boundaries of what it is to be a Mystic.

[kellywicka]

I know I'm not mad, but some times here voices chattering away, 🤔🤗

[heatherstratfold]

The audio would be nicer with your own voice
I play the cello
That would work to open more gates

[Dezzyyx]

So is mysticism the same as spirituality then?
