Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the problem of verbalization of mystical experience according to Agnė Budriūnaitė’s work. Despite the fact that the phenomenon of mystical experience is non-linguistic, it remains related to the language, because experiences are interpreted inevitably. Finally, the article highlights the conception of Oneness as “non-religious non-experience”, which can be described as a universal and unique “experience” at the same time, because “the experience” of Oneness is inevitably interpreted in the particular religious and cultural contexts.
