mystical initiation

Mystical initiation refers to a transformative process where an individual undergoes a profound spiritual experience or awakening, typically within a specific tradition or belief system. This experience often involves rituals, teachings, or mentorship that lead to a deeper understanding of spiritual truths and the self. Initiation can signify entry into a community or the attainment of certain spiritual insights, fostering personal growth and enlightenment. The journey is often symbolic, representing a shift from ordinary consciousness to a more expanded, mystical awareness, encouraging connection with the divine or the universe.
