Obviously, there’s Christian mysticism, and then there’s Zen in Buddhism, Sufism in Islam, Kabbalah in Judaism, etc.
But was there ever “Mormon mysticism”?
Or is Mormon theology and dogma too rigid for something like that to ever arise?

Hi there,
After some time reading and joining some meditation sessions in different schools of Buddhism I came to realise that if I want to get somewhere I better stick to one practice-tradition.
But I find them all so deep and interesting that it’s becoming a hard choice.
I see Theravada maybe as a more direct technique, but Zen is so beautiful and rich! Tibetan is the one with least points, but I’m open to your arguments if you see it as the best option.
Thank you very much!
Andy
