Psycanics and Mysticism
Mysticism is the study of, but above all, the personal experience of levels of reality beyond normal human perception, in particular, perception and contact with the Supreme Being. The mind is useless in Mysticism: All knowledge must be obtained by direct perception, by personal experience. Furthermore, such experiences and knowledge are usually ineffable: so wondrous, so complex and so far beyond human concepts that they cannot be put into words (any more than can not be put into words a Beethoven symphony).
Mystical experiences led to the discovery of psycanics. In reality, there is no definite line where psycanics stops and Mysticism begins: advanced psycanics becomes Mysticism.
However, for psycanics to qualify as a science a clear line must be, and is, drawn. This is the line of evidence, of proof, to support any statement made. Psycanics presents only information that is verifiable by the ordinary human being. It limits itself to formulas and laws that can be tested and experienced, and therefore proven or disproved, by an ordinary person.
Mysticism, on the other hand, is not easily verifiable by the ordinary person. Mystical perceptions are internal to each being and cannot be evidenced externally for verification by others. Furthermore, Mysticism is not easy; it requires thousands of hours of meditation and other disciplines to reach the levels of energy where its perceptions and experiences become possible. To know anything mystical, each person must walk that path himself, and it is a very difficult path. This is not to say that Mysticism is not verifiable, only that the verification is difficult- as it is for all advanced science.
However, to avoid conflicts with religions, it is preferable to avoid unverifiable statements. A main characteristic of religions is their insistence on being the possessors' of the one and only "truth" about spirit and god. However, Truth must be verifiable by others; or it is not Truth. Therefore, to avoid arguments about unverifiable matters, Psycanics limits itself to phenomena that are easily tested by the ordinary person.
However, in the writings and the teachings, psycanics and Mysticism are sometimes mixed. Psycanics was derived out of Mysticism, and Mysticism data immensely enriches the foundations and the comprehension of psycanics. However, if in your studies of psycanics, you encounter data about Mysticism, about spiritual things, to which you disagree and for which no proof is offered or possible, you may safely ignore such data without lessening the validity and power of psycanics in any way.
