Perhaps I could glean a clue or two about inuition and mysticism. I still
genuinely feel mysticism is just a pejorative label for something fairly
straightforward. ...Is this stuff "not yet rationally explained" and/or
"not yet experienced through the 5 external senses" all people mean by
mysticism?

No. To say that mystical reality is that which is "not yet" explained or
"not yet" experienced gives the impression that we are talking about some
undiscovered country and that some day we will be able to explain it. This
is the wrong idea. The idea is that the mystical reality can NEVER be
explained because of its nature. Its not that we don't yet know its nature,
it is that the nature of it is known to be beyond explanation. Does that
make sense?
Or to put it very simply, DQ is a metaphor for an eternal mystery.
