In this panel we will discuss contemporary approaches to mysticism and human sciences. We are convinced of the fact that both mysticism and science, begin from interior experience of certain persons. This subjective experience in order to be objective science, must conform to established rules and laws accepted by scientific community. Both mystical experiences and scientific findings have their implications in social life. Since social life is lived in particular context, each panelist will be presenting this theme from their particular field.
