Description
A Comparative Survey of Hindu, Christian and Jewish Mysticism by Dr. E.M. Abrahams is a profound scholarly work that explores the shared essence of mystical experiences across three major world religions. This book integrates the study of Vedantic traditions, selected Upanishads (Isa, Kena, Katha, Mundaka), Buddhist insights, Christian mysticism, and Jewish Kabbalah.
Abrahams—himself a practicing Jew—presents a balanced, deeply informed account of each tradition. The book is noteworthy for its analysis of The Cloud of Unknowing, a medieval Christian mystical text, and for highlighting how mystics across traditions describe remarkably similar transcendental experiences, shaped by their respective cultural and theological contexts.
Through rich comparisons and philosophical inquiry, the author argues that mysticism transcends religious boundaries. It is a universal path toward union with the divine—expressed variously as Brahman, God, or Nirvana. The book is both a treasure for scholars and a source of inspiration for seekers of spiritual truth.
