Ecstasy: Union With God Through Mysticism?

Ken Blanchard's trainer Jim Ballard talks about ecstasy:
PAGE 238, Mind Like Water: "We are realizing our need for an ecstatic dimension to life. Jung [Carl] said that ecstasy is an archetypal quality, which is to say that humans are made for transcendence."

So Does Tony Campolo:
"Beyond these models of reconciliation, a theology of mysticism provides some hope for common ground between Christianity and Islam. Both religions have within their histories examples of ecstatic union with God."
