Rodzaje poznania mistycznego w pismach św. Jana od Krzyża
Kinds of mystical cognition in the missive by John of the Cross

Summary/Abstract: Saint John distinguishes between two kinds of cognition: the natural one and the supernatural one. He divides the supernatural cognition into two more subdivisions: specific and extracted one and general and dark one, which is described as contemplation. The specific and extracted supernatu-ral cognition is divided into physical cognition and the spiritual one. The latter one, according to saint John of the cross, includes: revelations, words,spiritual feelings and visions. Based on testimonies of Saint John questioning the status of clear cognition (in raptum) seems justifiable.
