Mystic and occult are not they from the same root, both are hidden.

union with God. The Occultist uses Intellect; the Mystic Emotion. The 
Occultist watches Ideas embodying themselves in phenomena; the Mystic 
unfolds the Divine within him that it may expand into the Divinity 
whose Body is a universe. These sharp-cut definitions are, of course, 
true only of abstract types; the concrete individuals shade off into 
each other, and the perfected Occultist finally includes the Mystic, 
the perfected Mystic finally includes the Occultist. But on the way 
to perfection, the Occultist must evolve, pari passu, his 
consciousness and the successive vehicles in which that consciousness 
works; while the Mystic sinks into the depths of his consciousness, 
and cares naught for the bodies, which he disregards and abandons. To 
borrow two well known terms: the Occultist tends to become the 
Jîvanmukta, the liberated Spirit residing in material bodies; the 
Mystic tends to become the Jîvanmukta, the liberated Bodiless One. 
The Occultists rise, grade by grade, through the Hierarchy; the 
Mystics become the Nirmãnakãyas, the Reservoir of Spirituality, from 
which are drawn the streams which irrigate the worlds. Blessed, holy 
and necessary are both types, the two Hands of the One LOGOS in His 
helping of His universe.
