Religion, Mysticism, and Ethics:
An Interdisciplinary Colloquium on the Moral Implications of
Mysticism in the World Religions
17-18 May 2003, Princeton University

http://www.princeton.edu/~wildberg/mysticism.html

Conference Rationale

Ever since William James delivered exactly one hundred years ago an
open-minded, sensitive and wide-ranging phenomenology of the
experiential (as opposed to doctrinal) aspects of religion, it has
become increasingly clear that the phenomena of religious experience,
and of mysticism in particular, can and ought to be made the object
of unprejudiced academic inquiry. James shows in more compelling ways
than previous writers that mystical experiences play an important
part of the history of human consciousness, that they have momentous
effects on human lives and transform the way in which mystics
perceive, think about and relate to their social and natural
environment. Mysticism has not only speculative and experiential
dimensions, but also profoundly ethical ones, and not just on the
level of the individual. However, the precise relationship between
mysticism and moral belief or practice, and especially the way in
which mysticism has served historically as a foundation for
moral conduct, has received comparatively little academic attention
and remains, to some extent, uncharted territory. The colloquium to
take place in Princeton in May 2003 brings together scholars of
mysticism and ethics in the various world religions in order to
explore, critically and co-operatively, the many implications of
mysticism for moral conduct.
