Abstract

Richard Rohr says that ‘John of the Cross and Teresa of Avila were part of the “final supernova” of non-dual, mystical consciousness in the 16th century, before it all but disappeared for five hundred years in the wake of the Protestant Reformation, the enlightenment, and the invention of the printing press’. 1 So let us hope that this book is one of the signs that this ‘final supernova’ is reappearing.
