desertcart.com: Dark Night of the Soul: 9780875162157: St. John of the Cross: Books

Review: Great classic, easy to read translation into english - I recommend this book and this very affordable edition, only way could be better is if Dover Books sold it even cheaper! In this book, San Juan de la Cruz guides the reader through a extensive prayer meditation and ensures the reader understands what the prayer meditation is about and does it right by his instructions. There's a mini biography at the introduction of the Saint's life. Great book to read at least once especially if you're a catholic otherwise a participant in the eucharistic churches.
Review: embark on a path of discovery, growth, and transformation - The Dark Night of the Soul (DNOS) is a profound and transformative book that delves into the depths of human experience, revealing the mysteries of the soul's journey. Written by St. John of the Cross, a 16th-century Spanish mystic, DNOS is a spiritual guide that navigates the reader through the darkness of the soul, illuminating the path to awakening and transformation. The Dark Night of the Soul represents a profound period of transition and awakening, where the individual is called to shed the conditioned self that no longer serves them, making way for a new, more aligned way of being. This process is not unlike a rebirth, where the old self is dissolved, and a new, more radiant being emerges. The book is a powerful exploration of the human psyche, revealing the depths of human suffering and the longing for transcendence. St. John of the Cross masterfully guides the reader through the darkness, offering a profound understanding of the soul's journey, and the process of spiritual transformation. It's a journey into the unknown, where the individual is called to let go of the familiar, and embark on a path of discovery, growth, and transformation. The book is a testament to the power of spiritual transformation. It's a reminder that we are not bound by our limitations, but that we have the power to transcend them, and emerge into a new, more radiant being. Highly recommend The Dark Night of the Soul to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the human condition, and the journey of the soul. It's a powerful and transformative book that will leave you changed forever.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ highly recommended
*by A***Y on October 14, 2011*

The Baronius Press hardback edition of "The Dark Night of the Soul" is superb (I haven't seen their paperback). Some translations are pretty bad , and make the dark night even more obscure. Baronius Press have used an old translation which lights up the dark night which St John of the Cross writes about in his short love poem to God , and his accompanying explanatory prose. The book has been beautifully designed and produced in a manner to assist the reader to focus on and absorb St John's writing. It is a book to ponder , to return to (it has a ribbon marker) and to be a "manual" in some ways for the whole duration of one's spiritual life. There are many editions of St John of the Cross's Dark Night of the Soul using various translations , but if you are serious in learning from St John , I would highly recommend this hardback edition from Baronius Press.
