Investigations of mysticism often focus on the past, while largely ignoring current developments.

This book contributes to a reversal of that trend with a rigorous examination of a wide selection of contemporary Buddhist and Christian authors. The focus is on the intriguing intersections and subtle divergences now emerging in areas such as ineffability, nonconceptuality, paradox, inverted agency, unity, and self-dissolution. The analysis combines the theoretical framework of cognitive linguistics with a range of methodological approaches, from discourse and thematic analysis to corpus linguistics.
