You're right. Logic/argument _does_ have its uses but like many
systems there comes a point where it breaks down and no longer
functions properly.
I read an American philosopher from the 1960s try to explain the
nature of mystical experience and he did rather a fine job in
his own fashion, considering the difficulty of the task I'll see
if I can find a link. I credit him for the attempt and wish
others would follow suit.
Ah yes, it's W.T. Stace. He is probably the only western
philosopher that did a decent job of explaining the mystical
experience from a philosophical perspective..
When you're at a point where the self and other are no longer
relevant, no words in the language are available to describe it,
and when you're in that frame of mind, there's no comparison of
anything available to you.
Once you've left a mystical experience, it's difficult to
explain it without sounding strange to people who haven't had
it.
I have; and it's really quite nice. But how to explain it
logically/rationally? It's not easy because there are few
metaphors or analogies available.
