Hello all, I'm a nearly 4 decade old newbie looking to explore more for my own soul searching. For a starter, I learned that mystics have these characteristics:"They have powers of receptivity and sympathy that are particularly acute. They are porous and have the ability to be so open as to stretch beyond the usual small and protective ego, and they are often unusually courageous.", which makes me want to be like one! Well, there are still many more things that I don't know. I'd appreciate any pointers, and thank you for having me here.
