""Mystical Phenomena Compared With Their Human and Diabolical Counterfeits"" is a book written by Albert Farges that explores the differences between authentic mystical experiences and their imitations by human and demonic forces. The author delves into the various forms of mystical experiences, including visions, ecstasies, and revelations, and compares them with the counterfeit experiences that can be created by human manipulation or demonic influence. Farges also discusses the importance of discernment in recognizing genuine mystical experiences and warns against the dangers of being deceived by false experiences. This book offers a unique perspective on the mystical realm and provides valuable insights for those seeking to understand the difference between authentic spiritual experiences and their imitations.1926. This volume is a treatise on mystical theology in agreement with the principles of St. Teresa set forth by the Carmelite Congress of 1923 at Madrid. This work is based on a course of lectures on ascetic and mystical theology which set forth the traditional teaching of the Church and at the same time directed special attention to present day questions raised by the progress of contemporary science. Mgr. Farges presented these lectures at the University Seminary at Angers for seven years, and at that time the course was a novelty. Today the need of these studies for higher education of the clergy and for Christian apologists is universally admitted. It is this course of mystical theology which the author decided to publish in the present volume.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
