Morality and mysticism

Abstract

In classical ethical theory it is a customary to base morality with: revelation,
evolution, utilitarianism, deontology, intuition and mystical experience. Th is
article considers only the last foundation of morality, in a mystical experience.
In doing so, mysticism is understood broadly, and it represents the identical
experience, though diff erently expressed in the esoteric tradition of diff erent
religions. Th e ethical problem is that such experience does not necessarily lead
to morality. Looking mysticism in general, it is not justifi ed to use it for ethical
foundation of morality.
