چکیده:
Even if we do not consider religious experience to be of the same kind as mystical experience, mysticism is similar to religion in terms of having multiple dimensions. One of the dimensions of mysticism—alongside the ritual dimension, the doctrinal dimension, the institutional dimension, etc.—is its ethical dimension.
