What does MYSTIC mean in Scrabble?
noun
A person who seeks direct spiritual union with God or ultimate reality through contemplation, prayer or inner experience.
A mystic claims knowledge that comes not from reasoning or ordinary senses but from a personal sense of the divine. Traditions as different as Sufism, Christian monasticism and Jewish Kabbalah have all produced famous mystics, and their writings are still read for their imagery. In casual speech the word can also be used, sometimes loosely, for anyone who speaks in a dreamy or enigmatic way. Mystic can also be an adjective, though mystical is the more common form.
