And as mystical experiences can also be called religious experiences in some cultures and contexts, i think the better opiton is to redirect the adrees 'mystical experiences' to the 'religious experience'.
and the article 'mysticism' dont focus on the 'mystical/religious experience' itself.

I've moved the "Mystical experience" sections from Mysticism to Mystical experience, for the obvious reason that this is a related, yet distinct concept. "Mysticism" is moe than "mstical experience." Mysticism is primarily about personal transformation, of which mystical experiences may be a part. "Mystical experiences" as such refer to specific experiences, for which explanations and similarities are beig sought by scholars, and which can also happen spontaneously, apart from any " mystical practice."

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Mystical experience's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

This article says that the term "mystical experience" has become synonymous with "religious experience", but I beg to differ. Surely mystical experience involves a sense of union with the Divine, which religious experience does not necessarily have? Vorbee ( talk) 11:03, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
