Review on mystical traditions

By comparing different mystical traditions and their methodologies for producing a well balanced healthy person we discovered a considerable number of similarities. It is obvious that at some levels and instances these mystical traditions must be associated with each other. The OIDA therapist is therefore open and tolerant to all mystical traditions, even though the final outcome of any OIDA therapeutic session will depend on the capability of the therapist to actually help the patient to accept and apply the healing potentials of a particular mystical tradition.

Mystical traditions should give us support to reach the healthy state of existence or the healing circle. When we talk about mystical traditions, we generously presuppose that a true spiritual fundament of some higher revelation exists behind a respective faith-system. This higher revelation is based on some background and antiquity and is backed up by a content of transcendental values and messages. We do not assume the right to judge how authorized or not authorized a mystical tradition really is. OIDA-therapy does not want to influence the faith of the patient.
