CCEL Christian Mysticism Practice

I registered at the Christian Classics Ethereal Library in the Christian Mysticism discussion group and received the following words :

"Mysticism is the art of union with Reality. The mystic is a person who has attained that union in greater or less degree; or who aims at and believes in such attainment.
It is not expected that the inquirer will find great comfort in this sentence when first it meets his eye. The ultimate question, “What is Reality?”—a question, perhaps, which never occurred to him before—is already forming in his mind; and he knows that it will cause him infinite distress. Only a mystic can answer it: and he, in terms which other mystics alone will understand." -- Evelyn Underhill--

“Love is the ultimate realization as your origin and your destiny as creation.You have three aspects of being; love, loving, and loved. And as being love,you only have two things to do; that of expressing love and that of being loved. When your love perceives the all in its loving as loved,you will experience the Oneness of Heaven on Earth.”

"Humility is the ability to see what needs to be done in accordance with divine creative principles and allowing it to unfold without ego attachment; a surrender to consciously serving God's unfolding glory."

Most people often equate humility with humiliation or self abasement. These are only illusions we hold of ego judgment often used to assuage guilt or create self importance, and they serve only to keep us trapped in illusion.

Becoming humble only takes a moment, however, staying that way requires years of devoted practice with few who ever master it in a lifetime.However, the effort is worth it as it leads to conscious union with God.
-- Robert Lodge Groves--

It's a fine reflection on the practice and meaning of love & humility.
