The Silent Cry: Mysticism and Resistance Soelle DorotheePaperback
Exploring the religious impulse known as mysticism - the "silent cry" at the heart of all the world's religions. But Soelle believes it has never been more important than in this age of materialism and fundamentalism. Mysticism, in the sense of a "longing for God," has been present in all times, cultures, and religions.
Religion in the third millennium, Soelle argues, either will be mystical or it will be dead. The antiauthoritarian mystical element in each religion leads to community of free spirits and resistance to the death-dealing aspects of our contemporary culture. Therefore, Soelle identifies strongly with the hunger of New Age searchers, but laments the religious fast food they devour.
Today, a kind of "democratized mysticism" of those without much religious background flourishes. This mystical experience is not drawn so much of the tradition as out of contemporary experiences.
