Abstract: Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze the religious mysticism in literature: Shaping the integration of philosophical thought in Germany. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Religious mysticism in German literature fused transcendent spiritual experiences with emerging philosophical ideas. Works by mystic figures like Meister Eckhart challenged traditional dogmas and bridged the gap between spirituality and rational inquiry. This synthesis enriched modern German thought and fostered a legacy of reflective intellectual exploration. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Hermeneutics theory, phenomenology theory & semiotic theory may be used to anchor future studies on religious mysticism in literature: shaping the integration of philosophical thought in Germany. Educators and practitioners should integrate religious mysticism into curricula and creative programs to foster a balanced dialogue between analytical and experiential modes of thought. Policymakers are encouraged to support initiatives that fund interdisciplinary research and educational programs at the nexus of literature, mysticism, and philosophy.
