The Divine Sight

Pariah

Let go
Mysticism across borders and around the world represents a pool from which mystics draw shared meanings for differing symbols about the divine. With any religious scripture, there are those who prefer a personal translation, while mystics will tend to arrive at similar conclusions about the "true meaning". Consistently, there are those who "see" past that into deeper meaning.

Is it a gift or can constant effort bring one up to speed on symbols?

What makes myself think that effort may not be enough is the trepidation with which most people approach religion and spirituality. Certain aspects of their religion, indoctrinated at young ages cannot be broken easily, which in turn cannot be "seen" past.
