"Some might ask, 'Don't all people experience God?' And I would answer yes, but many are not aware of it. The mystic is aware of it." These are the words of Wilson Van Dusen, Ph.D., (1942–2007) an elder who was chief psychologist at Mendocino State Hospital and is a Swedenborg scholar. He is highly esteemed for his innovative work with the mentally ill. Though he considers himself a scientist, Van Dusen approaches reality from the standpoint of multi-leveled mysticism through an empiricist's eyes. He has spent a lifetime in the exploration of spirit. Van Dusen opens up the realm of mystical experience to all by sharing from his own personal experience in a simple, authentic style. Whether he is discussing his unique, out-of-the-ordinary techniques with the mentally ill, the 19th century mystic Emanuel Swedenborg's belief of heaven and hell, his own LSD experiences, or his future writing plans, Van Dusen's eloquence and exuberant passion shine through. "My love of life is to explore mysticism and explore other mystics and make discoveries and then report them back to others - That is my task and that is what I love doing." (hosted by Michael Toms)
