Ascent of Mount Carmel

Giv mig besked når bogen er tilgængelig

Thomas Merton called John of the Cross “the greatest of all mystical theologians.” This volume represents a contemporary English edition of John's rarely published work Ascent of Mount Carmel, a commentary on his entire spiritual vision. It recounts John's passage through a “dark night” of faith on his journey toward complete union with God. Through this humble wisdom, this classic has become an encouraging companion for people throughout the centuries who are passing through their own “dark night of the soul.”

The soul’s preparation for this union is not that it should understand or perceive or feel or imagine anything concerning either God or anything else, but that it should have purity and love—that is, perfect resignation and detachment from everything for God’s sake alone.

God communicates himself most to the soul that has progressed farthest in love, meaning that its will is in closest conformity with the will of God.

Babak Eftekharihar citeretfor 7 år siden
Not only does it provide no knowledge, but also it deprives us of all other information and knowledge and blinds us to them, so that they cannot judge it well. Other knowledge can be acquired by the light of the understanding, but the knowledge that comes from faith is acquired without the enlightenment of the understanding, which is rejected for faith
