Thanks for you input micjer which is much appreciated.
The mystical is a challenge to the intellect because it is not measurable,
The intellect is the wrong instrument much like trying to measure water or air with a ruler.
Yet there is much anecdotal evidence of the nonlinear non-dualistic -Oneness -the province of the mystic.
Those who have experienced coming back from clinically proven death have a fairly uniform story.

love your DH quote below,

At some point, the illusion breaks down and the opening for the start of the spiritual quest commences. The quest turns from without to within and the search for answers begins."
