They are so essential to life that those who are unaware of, repress, obscure, or run away from these essential mysteries are not fully alive---and may be essentially dead. These are not mysteries of ignorance. They are mysteries which deepen with familiarity and knowledge on the part of people who are willing accept, affirm, and enjoy the meaning of the mysteries. Among the mysteries of life are: birth, passages and growth; visions, imagination, and creativity; instincts and intuitions, friendship, sexual dialogue, personal bonding, profoundly significant chance occurrences, parenting, and death. To be unaware of, repress, obscure, or run away from such essential mysteries is to be dead or dying. The sponsorship of such deadly activities will not make much creative difference even if it be sponsored by religious, educational, or political institutions. Respectability offers no protection. It is tragic when people mystify that which is not essentially mysterious. They thereby obscure the character of essential mysteries---by making it appear that mysteries may be eliminated through knowledge. It is thus difficult to distinguish between that which is mystified (although not essentially mysterious) on the one hand, and that which is essentially mysterious. The difference can not be made evident to those who deny that there are any essential mysteries, and can not be made evident to those who perceive everything as mysterious. The meaning of life is wrapped up in its essential mysteries, and when they are banished life does not survive for long. Among the mysteries of life are suffering, tragedies, double binds, forgiveness, reconciliation, and being alone. Efforts to totally eliminate such mysteries unwrap life and leave it meaningless. Successfully solving all the "problems" of life while banishing the mysteries of life---does not make life meaningful. Thus the technocrat who solves all of life's "problems" does not thereby make life meaningful or worth living, even if there are no technological bad side effects to any of the techniques used in solving the "problems".
