The Dark Night of the Soul

The complete surrender of our ego self, the figurative death of the separate self, contrasts with the beauty and light of joy that is always shining within. Paradox is the language of the spiritual journey.

The Garden:

This is where our divine connection “goes dark” and God as we have come to know God appears to withdraw. After having a even a limited connection, this withdrawal is nearly unbearable. This is where we must remain until we are called back into the light of the Mystical Marriage. We do not conquer the dark night: the dark night shatters us, removing our illusions and ego needs.

Affirmations and Meditations For Your Consideration:

I am called to the Light. I Am the Light. I am Spirit, hovering over the face of unconsciousness. I am the essence of the All That Is. I Am That…I Am.

I am called to Illumination. I am the Enlightened One. I am the Realization of Light in the formless and in form. I am the Light in the shadow. I Am That…I Am.

I am the Light of the World. No one comes to this Consciousness except through this awareness. I am the Light in the manifest and in the unmanifest. I Am That…I Am.
