Coffee Shop Mystic has officially launched! Happy New Year 2008!
After many hours of getting computer-headaches from assembling the Coffee Shop Mystic community I am proud to say that it is at last launched! As of January 1, 2008 mystics from across the world can come together and banter, pontificate, raise collective eyebrows and generally learn from each other in a large and interactive social networking environment.
Coffee Shop Mystic is a community for free thinkers who are sick of toll booths on their road to understanding the world they live in. Philosophy, metaphysics and theology does not have to be elitist, stuffy, secretive, or costly. Coffee Shop Mystic provides a digestible and modern system for mystical studies and discussion for normal everyday people. So . . . pull up a chair, meet some people and learn some stuff.
Along with the community's launch comes the first issue of the Coffee Shop Mystic
eZine. This monthly eZine will collect all the activity of the site from the prior month, ad some interesting tidbits about the community and collect other odd collectibles we found along the way. If you would like to be highlighted in the eZine, be sure to post your blogs, articles, music and videos at Coffee Shop Mystic!
What are the Mystics Saying?
They are saying, "What is Mysticism?"
Fair question. Especially concerning a site called Coffee Shop
Mystic. Fortunately for you, there is a lot of content about just that topic with the site's inauguration. I think that is in part due to the notion that most people will be wondering. The article
describing the site goes into some detail on that topic, but another article aptly called
What is Mysticism? may also help out in that department.
These articles all strive to lay it out in a digestible way. Mysticism is more than just philosophy. It is more than science. It is a complete way to question this world and find real solutions that not only work for us in everyday life but for mankind in general. It could be the study of anything ranging from the current world situation or what astrologers thought four centuries ago. It is all those things that make us wonder "why".
Sound interesting? Come on in and discuss what
your mysticism is by joining Fedora's group designed just for that discussion:
Coffee Talk.
Come on in and make this the community I hope it will be. All free and all for our own enlightenment. Whatever that may mean.
