Abstract

This article first predicts, on the basis of an analysis of deep absorption, a number of features of mystical and related states of consciousness. It then observes that these very same features appear in beliefs held by people who have never experienced deep absorption. Moreover, many people engage in activities that, though not normally leading to deep absorption, bring about lesser states of absorption. The article will propose an answer to the question how it is that many people are influenced in their beliefs and practices by experiences (deep absorption) they have not had.

本文首先在对深度吸收的分析基础上，预测了神秘意识和相关意识状态的一些特征。然后，它观察到，这些完全相同的特征出现在从未经历过深刻吸收的人所持有的信仰中。此外，许多人从事的活动虽然通常不会导致深度吸收，但会带来较少的吸收状态。这篇文章将回答这样一个问题：许多人的信仰和实践是如何受到他们没有的经历（深度吸收）的影响的。
