Probably even simpler: the ignorance and lack of knowledge - the mystic!

 My friends all esoteric - with advanced degrees, often in the sciences, so that about ignorance, I'm sorry ...
Mysticism is defined in general (this link will not give, do not remember where she read) - is the belief that you can and be able to find their own path to a higher power (if you want - to God), without intermediaries.
Mystics may or may not be mages.
Magic - the ability to manipulate energy.
Among the mystics are visionaries, commentators, analysts said.
Most of the artists - natural mystics. Moreover, the Semites, usually tend to ceremonial magic, that is, with the help of signs and symbols, and the Indo-Europeans - to sympathetic - that is, through the image. Apparently, this particular mentality or culture or both of them.
If you want to talk on this subject - write in a personal. Forum still does not know.
