   Funny.

   Incidentally, Wittgenstein’s notion of the mystical (das Mystische) is similar to Vedanta’s idea of Brahman and he was certainly influenced by the work of Schopenhauer. But alas, he did not receive the mantra.

     Also, after writing his Tractus, he seriously considered becoming a monk and leaving everything behind. Interesting fellow.
