What does it mean to be a mystic in our time? In this modern era brimming with technology, complexity, and noise, have we lost our connection to mystery and mysticism?

With the chaos of our contemporary world, can we still access poetic states of bliss and the experience of the sublime?

Mystics across time have written some of the world’s greatest poetry and scripture during episodes of war, plague, and social upheaval – and they call to us now to reclaim our soul’s longing and commune with the sacred heart of existence — even in the midst of turmoil.

Please join us for a very special and completely FREE convergence of seasoned scholars, sacred rebels and mystical seekers:

The Mystics – FREE 5-Day Online Event

After a year that’s left many feeling bereft, exhausted, and depleted, there’s a strong desire to reconnect with perennial wisdom and replenish the capacity for universal and timeless ecstatic union with the sacred.

As we enter a new year and a new era, it’s a perfect time to listen and receive inspiration from the “holy troublemakers” across history — who were both ordinary, flawed people and great mystics — revelling in the sublime while delivering provocative messages of truth and awakening.

This timely event features more than more than 40 scholars, teachers, contemporary mystics — including Krishna Das, Mirbai Starr, Matthew Fox, Rabbi Rami Shapiro, Imam Jamal Rahman, Alexander John Shaia, Andrew Harvey, China Galland, and many others — as they lead you through the lives and times of ancient mystics, their “ordinary heroism,” and lessons you can apply in these tumultuous times.

RSVP here to claim your complimentary place at The Mystics Online Event

Throughout this landmark summit, you’ll receive not only gems of wisdom from the ancient mystics, but also poetry, music, and practices that can put you in touch with the unmistakable passion, born of a direct revelation of “the Beloved.”

During this seminal 5-day event, you’ll discover:
  • Recent stories of a great contemporary Indian mystic, Sri Siddhe Ma, who died in December 2019
  • Inspiration from Thomas Merton, a guide in contemplative living and the mystical traditions
  • Music inspired by many of the mystics Mirabai Starr has translated and written about
  • How a cross-dressing, cigar-smoking female novelist in France served as a catalyst to the Russian Revolution
  • How mystics Teilhard and Bruteau offered a participatory mysticism centered on learning to wield creative ecstasy for personal and social transformation
  • The account of Reb Zalman’s prolific life and the Jewish Renewal movement which bridged the Hassidic and New Age worlds
  • Teachings from great evolutionary mystics, such as Bede Griffiths, Sri Aurobindo, the Mother, and Sat Pram — who point us toward a truly embodied humanity
  • How Hildegard of Bingen, a Benedictine abbess of the 12th century, shared wisdom deeply relevant to our own climate change challenges
  • How the sacred and holy is revealed in nature, in stillness, in song, in dreams, and in worship
  • How women were the storytellers for the myths and scriptures that most powerfully shape our lives, and how feminine wisdom holds the key to our future
  • Teachings from Rabbi Rami Shapiro, introducing the Holy One as “non-dual Aliveness”
  • A deepening awareness of the Black Madonna, revealing the bridge between the dark feminine and the healing our world so desperately needs
  • Islamic Sufi insights and practices to transform the ego, open the heart, and create sacred community in one’s life
  • The refreshing movement and dance rituals woven throughout various mystical traditions
You’ll come away knowing that mysticism isn’t reserved just for those on the pedestals of religious history. It’s everyone’s birthright!

Together we’ll gather a harvest of inspiration – and we can us this to help us re-enter the social, cultural or political sphere with greater attunement to the eternal and the sacred.
