This article explores the symbolic entanglements between Jewish mystical traditions and the contemporary rise of generative artificial intelligence. Taking the Golem - a mythical anthropoid animated through sacred language - as a guiding figure, I examine how current developments in Large Language Models (LLMs) revive long-standing theological concerns about animacy, speech, and the limits of...

The article examines mystical elements within the Ancient Egyptian tradition. In Ancient Egyptian culture, mysticism was viewed not merely as a collection of religious rituals, but as an esoteric system that clarified the structure of the universe and man's place within the spiritual hierarchy. For the first time, the idea that chosen individuals could achieve enlightenment (attaining secret...

Scholarship on Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai (1689–1752) recognises him as a vernacular Sufi poet of eighteenth-century Sindh, while studies of Karbala have examined its enduring ethical, ritual, political, and mystical significance. However, the relationship between Karbala and Latif’s poetic tradition remains comparatively underexplored. Existing studies often discuss Sur Kedaro as a lament for...

This article examines the question of God in contemporary phenomenology from a strictly philosophical standpoint, namely, the scope and limit of the phenomenological method when it opens itself to phenomena that seem to exceed intentional constitution and eidetic description. From Husserl to thinkers such as Levinas, Henry, Lacoste, and especially Jean-Luc Marion, the study shows that...

This article examines the intersection of Emil Cioran’s phenomenology of temporal decay, Oswald Spengler’s morphological theory of cultural decline, and contemporary neuroaesthetic research grounded in predictive processing and embodied cognition. While both Cioran and Spengler share an intuition of civilisational exhaustion, they articulate decline through distinct epistemological frameworks:...

The rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into everyday life has created new intersections among digital technology, spirituality, mystical experience, and psychopathology. This scoping review aimed to map evidence on how AI mediates, reinforces, detects, predicts, or interprets religious and spiritual experiences at the boundary with psychosis and dissociation.

African thought has long held the body as a primary site of knowing. In Nguni-Zulu epistemology, izinseka names a class of somatic knowing spanning pre-cognitive reflexive response to another’s distress, cultivated empathic sensitivity of caregivers, and refined diagnostic insight of isangoma. Western psychology has typically approached such knowing through a pathology frame, reading somatic...

This article synthesises a framework positioning the cross-cultural practice of secluding girls at puberty as a forerunner to institutionalised religion, tracing its structural roots deep into the Upper Palaeolithic. Integrating ethnographic documentation, portable art, parietal cave art, and socio-cultural history — including European shamanism and the witch cult — the synthesis argues for an...
