Susan Cain

“When LVL finally speaks, it's of many things, but especially of what Sufis call "the journey". This, he says, is his deepest interest, and really there are three of them. The first journey is from God - the journey where you forget that you ever had a divine union in the first place... The second, of remembrance, is the moment of grace in which "you begin to look for the light. You look for prayers and practices to help you. In the West, this is known as spiritual life. Many techniques have come from East to West to help you connect with soul. Every human has his own way of prayer and glorification. And you need to find a spiritual teacher." The final journey is in God - you're taken "deeper and deeper into the divine mystery.”
