"Mysticism may refer to any kind of ecstasy or altered state of consciousness which is given a religious or spiritual meaning" - Wikipedia

"‘Mysticism’ is best thought of as a constellation of distinctive practices, discourses, texts, institutions, traditions, and experiences aimed at human transformation, variously defined." - https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/mysticism/
