"Ein spiel der Worte, in dem das 'urwirkliche' atmet"
the birth of the mystical word according to Carl Albrecht
Anikó Daróczi
pp. 231-238
In this paper I am going to look at the way the physician and mystic Carl Albrecht (1902–1965) described the birth of mystical words. Carl Albrecht started his career as an internist and was initiated in the secrets of psychosomatics and hypnotherapy by a collegue. He began to heal his patients with hypnosis. But within a short time he found that he was achieving only temporary results with this method, and decided to teach his patients some meditation techniques too – he was convinced that meditation could heal the whole person.
