Here's a mainly incomplete list of what mysticism could be.
Transcendance, the paranormal, spiritual experience (whatever that might be), religious experience (Wtmb), other-worldly, supernatural, occult, metaphysical, esoteric, arcane, and so on.
My Encarta World English Dictionary defines mysticism as: The belief that personal communication or union with the divine is achieved through intuition, faith, ecstasy or insight rather than through rational thought.
So where do you want to start?
