An analysis of the experiences, insights and proclamations by mystics and prophets from various epochs unveils the characteristics of individuals exposed to long experiences and holistic (or integral) cognition. A mystic transformation affects the mode of speaking and communicating with the world. Language with its stereotypical phrases and connotations certainly limits human cognition. However, in the process of their transpersonal experience, mystics go beyond this barrier and overcome cognitive limitations including the flaws of human language. In order to present an altogether “different” space of reality shared by mystics, and to share their proclamations and teaching with a large audience, mystics apply very specific linguistic tools like the metaphor, allegory, antithesis, paradox, analogy, symbol, quotations from the Bible, hyperbole, parallelism, chiasm and, last but not least, parable. An act of viewing the prophecy and epiphany-related language reflecting the authors’ synoptic (mystic) awareness “from the inside” makes it possible to identify archetypal criteria of the mystic experience and to establish the correct meaning of the key expressions (the sacred) and sacral acts of speech.

W artykule przedstawiono refleksje i przemyślenia współczesnego polskiego teologa, historyka sztuki i poety Janusza Stanisława Pasierba (1929–1993), poświęcone relacjom Bóg-człowiek. Rejestrowaną przez Pasierba na kartach swoich dzieł, zwłaszcza poetyckich, historię spotkań Boga z jednostką ludzką, odejść, powrotów, nawiedzeń, nagłych rewelacji i iście medytacyjnych skupień można postrzegać w kategoriach mistyki, eksponującej „przedzieranie się” człowieka ku światłu Bożej obecności. W myśli pelplińskiego kapłana intelektualisty człowiek, a także – przynajmniej w pewnym stopniu – świat, rzeczywistość zdają się być zakorzenione w doświadczeniu mistycznym, odkryte jako uświęcona przestrzeń potencjalnego kontaktu z transcendentnym Stwórcą.

The article presents some reflections and thoughts of a contemporary Polish theologian, art historian and poet Janusz Stanislaw Pasierb (1929–1993), concerning Man-God relationship. On the pages of his masterpieces, especially the poetic ones, the author registers the history of meetings between God and human beings; the history of leaving, coming back, visitations, sudden revelations, and indeed meditative concentration. It can be all perceived – and so it has been done – in the categories of mystique which features man’s „breaking through” into the light of God’s presence. In the view of the priest – intellectual from Pelplin, a man, as well as the world and the reality – at least in some degree – seem to be rooted in mystic experience, discovered as sanctifield space of a potential contact with transcendental Creator.
