First sentence: PROFESSOR JAMES LEUBA, of Bryn Mawr, who may perhaps be taken as a member of the extreme "left wing" of inquirers into Mysticism, thus defines 'mystical': The term mystical . . . will mean for us any experience taken by the experiencer to be a contact (not through the senses, but 'immediate', 'intuitive') or union of the self with a larger-than-self, be it called the World-Spirit, the Absolute, or otherwise.
