The Journey of the Mind to God
Synopsis
A mystical itinerary in seven stages, tracing the soul's ascent from the material world through the human soul to God, culminating in contemplative union.
The Journey of the Mind to God is a central text in the Christian mystical tradition, offering insight into the spiritual life, the nature of divine union, and the transformation of the soul.
Selected Passages
No one enters into himself unless Christ be his guide.
If you wish to know how these things come about, ask grace, not instruction; desire, not understanding.
In this passing over, Christ is the way and the door, the ladder and the vehicle.
