所谓神秘主义就是那些不从科学考察和严密的逻辑推理,而是从不可言传的神秘途径得出结论的信仰或思想。它主张人同神或超自然的力量在精神上直接交往,以便从中领悟世界各种事物的奥秘,解决现实世界的难题。在十月革命前的俄国,神秘主义大行其道,已深深地渗入俄国的传统文化中。不过,它不是俄国传统文化中的精华,而是糟粕,是阻碍俄国社会进步的惰性力量。 The so-called mysticism is those beliefs or ideas that are not concluded from scientific investigation and rigorous logical reasoning, but from unspeakable mysterious ways. It advocates direct spiritual contact with God or the supernatural power to understand the mysteries of all things in the world and to solve the real world problems. Before the October Revolution in Russia, mysticism became so popular that it infiltrated Russia’s traditional culture. However, it is not the essence of Russian traditional culture, but a dross, an inert force that hinders the progress of Russian society.
