mystical union

Divine soul fusion

Mystical union is a state of spiritual oneness with the divine, often described as the soul merging with God or ultimate reality.

The term appears across religious traditions—Christian mystics speak of union with Christ, Sufis of dissolution into Allah, Hindu practitioners of merging with Brahman.

The experience typically transcends ordinary consciousness and language: She described her mystical union as both annihilation and completion.
