Relationship of Mysticism with Woman


Woman has been a 'mystery' to men and even man-kind since times immemorial!
So a query/question/inquisitiveness/curiosity/etc... about the relation between mysticism and woman is logically obvious!

There is also a spiritual angle to it. That is our interest here...

A gift from mother nature.... that often lies dormant due to lack of awareness about the value of maintaining self-awareness, this gift of intuitive aspect of mind often goes untapped. Yet, more than often, it gets tapped by situation, in a contextual fashion, leaving it to 'chance' as to how it gets evolved. It is here that the rituals and traditions had sought to enrich the life of a woman as also gently initiating her into spirituality. Now such 'value-additions' to life has withered away with stormy invasion by modernity!

Is it the upsurge of this aspect, when unawares, makes a woman look like a mystery? Is it not different to counsel a person, the very approach, technique and tools differing from that of psychiatric 'treatment'?

A very generalised answer is unlikely to appeal to the 'urgent' mind of present day!

So, I contend with just a passing reference, and quietly reproducing the answer I attempted to give for this wonderful question!

What is the relationship between women and mysticism?
Can anyone explain? Any special relationship?

My answer:
Yes!
Women are 'naturally' gifted with more of intuitive aspect, most of which gets converted/utilized/manifested into emotional form.... Now, whether they are conscious of it is a subjective question.... Mysticism is to do a lot with intuitive aspect of the mind...
Emotions have never obeyed logic... so the manifest form... that is emotion.... which defies logic, looks mystic too... and therefore the seeming relationship!
If a woman gains awareness over this emotional aspect, it deepens the 'reach' into the intuitive aspect, and then, the reasonable-ness enables her to demystify herself from herself, not necessarily from others :)
