The Mystic As A Creative Artist

The Mystic As A Creative Artist is a book written by Evelyn Underhill, a British writer and pacifist who was known for her works on spirituality and mysticism. The book explores the relationship between mysticism and creativity, arguing that the mystical experience is a source of inspiration and artistic expression. Underhill draws on the writings of mystics from various religious traditions, including Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism, to illustrate her points. She also discusses the role of the artist in society and the ways in which the creative process can be both a spiritual practice and a means of social transformation. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection of mysticism and art, and is recommended for readers interested in spirituality, creativity, and the ways in which these two aspects of human experience intersect.THIS 30 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Essentials of Mysticism and Other Essays, by Evelyn Underhill.
