The state of purgation and illumination
are complimentary to one another.
They do exist side by side
in the individual experience.
The mystical consiousness
belongs to that mobile or
unstable type, in which the
artistic temperment also
gets in, making the mystic an artist.
It sways easily from the extremes
of pleasure and pain in its
gropings after transcendental reality.
