Pagans, Gaiaist, Wiccans, etc... Dogma vs Mysticism
 
Many religions have dogmatical and mystical aspects.

For example, Catholics:
Dogma: Baptism, Mass, Fish on Friday, Being Confirmed, Giving up something for Lent, confession, etc. That is what you have to do in order to be saved.

Mysticism: The Holy Trinity, Personal transformation in the Confirmation Rite, the changing of the Eucharist to the Body of Christ. The use of ritual sound and space in the Holy Mass as a means of transcending the mundane. Those things that are mystical and transcend the natural world.

How is these aspects of religion, dogma and mysticism, manifest in naturist religions? Give me some ideas.

If you want a good overview on Wicca.... read "The Spiral Dance", by Starhawk. :2 cents:
