How do I define a mystical experience?… By means of prayer, meditation and contemplation, the mystic strives to capture the divine spirit and preserve it in their soul. This capturing takes the form of an illumination, a rapture, an ecstasy. Unfortunately, these higher states do not last, and they very quickly come back down to their ordinary level of consciousness and have to renew their efforts to return to these states. Only those beings who possess the right receptacle are able to retain the divine spirit. This is the receptacle the esoteric tradition calls ‘the holy grail’. Alchemists, who use another language, speak of ‘fixing the volatile’. But in order for the volatile, the cosmic spirit, to be fixed, it has to be condensed and made into matter, and this is only possible by working simultaneously with the opposite process, that of ‘making the fixed – the physical body – volatile’. So long as the physical body remains coarse, solid and impure, it cannot vibrate as one with the spirit and so is unable to hold onto it.
