The Dark Night of the Soul (Search for Reality)

The Dark Night of the Soul (Search for Reality)

An interpretation of an extraordinary work by St. John of the Cross, and Christian symbolism on a mystical level. Its insights are invaluable for modern man s growth. More than three hundred years ago, a Spanish mystic, San Juan de la Cruz, St. John of the Cross, wrote an extraordinary book entitled 'The Dark Night of the Soul.' Though comparatively unknown to the modern reader, this is perhaps one of the greatest documents in Christian symbolism on a mystical level. All the boundaries between the faiths of men are annihilated, not by words, but by the import of the message. The terms used are so broadly derived from the great sources of man s mystical insight, that we find the same thought as we learn in India, China, Egypt, or Greece. The message of this book is from a level of personal inspiration which demonstrates beyond all controversy that man's search for reality is one, regardless of his race, his people, or his time. It presents certain insight which is invaluable to us today. The purpose is not to attempt an analysis of the book, therefore, but rather, to interpret certain parts of it in terms of our present problems and our continuing emergency.
