Mystical theology - Shinpishingaku (English spelling) theologia mystica
It is a branch of Christian practical theology, and together with ascetic theology, it constitutes a branch of spiritual theology. Ascetic theology regards concrete human actions as a means to reach God, the ultimate goal of life, as active human activity, while mystical theology considers them passively, that is, as the result of God's special activity in the individual. It emphasizes contemplation and preaches mystical unity therein. Because it is centered on so-called mystical experiences, it is difficult to conceptualize, and it mainly focuses on the interpretation and criticism of symbolic phenomena and expressions.

キリスト教実践神学の一部門で,修徳神学とともに霊性神学の一部門を構成する。人生の究極目的である神へいたる手段としての人間の具体的な行為に関して,修徳神学がこれを能動的な人間の働きとしてとらえるのに対して,神秘神学は受動的に,つまり神の個人における特別な働きの結果として考察する。ここでは観想が重んじられ,そこにおける神秘的一致を説く。いわゆる神秘体験が中心だから概念化は困難で,象徴的現象,表現の解釈,批判を主とする。
