Abstract

Nepalese Lang addressed the root theoretical system encompassing the human mind beyond the field of open and longing, which is still involved with the subject "beyond Qiemu", "insight into the mysterious" and "religious naturalized" and other projects. These topics appear in Lang's system there can be room to play, especially in the "mystical insight", the Lang's system can listen to the Holy Cross by John to talk about "contemplation" of the experience and further breakthroughs and inspiration. In his reflection on man's desire to know, Lonergan emphasizes the fact that there is a transcendent exigence heading for a religious conversion. As to the question whether man's transcendent exigence may open up for different stages of mystical insight, Lonergan does not seem to concentrate much attention on this aspect. But, this lacuna may possibly be filled up if we visualize an encounter of Lonergan's system with St. John of the Cross' theory on contemplation
