I'm involved on integral forums and this kind of question is something that comes up. All I can say is that their is an internal consistency to some of the languages that have developed around mystical experiences. Basically, you can follow the procedures and if you're dedicated enough eventually you will have similar experiences. Is this just expectation? The thing is even people who don't seek mystical experiences sometimes have mystical experiences.
If you're curious about this kind of thing, Ken Wilber might be the best writer to read as an introduction. Or you can join an integral forum where there are people of all kinds of beliefs and experiences but with a highly agnostic bent to the discussions.
