Publisher's Synopsis
This book is full of incisive, relevant, often humorous revelations concerning our human condition and spirituality. This book speaks to your core, sparks your imagination, and delights your soul while at the same time calling everything you hold to be true into question. The books read more like poetry than prose, and do not follow a sequential, step-by-step, train of thought from "darkness to light." Darkness and light are two aspects of the same experience. "The Dark Night of the Soul" can be light that is so bright and blinding that we cannot see-or something we take to be light and truth that is neither. The True Light of Revelation makes dark all we ever thought to be true, and, in turn, nothing is better preparation for light than darkness-leading Rumi to observe, "Darkness is the cradle of light." Thus, light makes dark all that we considered being the finest doctrine, and darkness prepares the way for light.
