Exploring the mystery of mysticism

The Woodbrooke Quaker Study Centre in Birmingham, where birdsong overpowers the sound of traffic from the nearby main road, was again the setting for the annual conference of the Quaker Universalist Group. The theme chosen for the gathering, held between 5-7 May, was ‘Exploring the Mystery of Mysticism’ and this was looked at from the perspective of different faith traditions.
