That is completely ignoring Eastern Mysticism (Eastern Orthodox, not Eastern Asian), as well as a large faction in the West that holds to the "Nada" way, such as the Spaniard saint, John of the Cross.

Kosta - could you inform this gentlemen of the Church's spiritual tradition that is so predominant among our Orthodox brothers?

Regard
