Proposes an alternative to the traditional psychoanalytical explanation of mystical experiences as regression to infancy, by viewing unitive thinking as a line of cognitive development, and mystical moments as creative inspirations on unitive topics. Draws on classical self-reports by Christian, Jewish, and Muslim mystics, Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, and modern Western peak experiences, and argues that the solipsism of some varieties of mystical union implies unconscious ideas of a love object who is transcendent.
