Darkness Visible: Awakening Spiritual Light through Darkness Meditation
This explores the spiritual and therapeutic practice of retreating in physical darkness to explore inner light. This cross-cultural method helps develop mental clarity and creativity by experiencing complete darkness over prolonged periods. Drawing from various indigenous and spiritual traditions, the book demonstrates how even for a short period, complete darkness can bring about remarkable clarity and mental stillness, providing a springboard for creativity, intuition, and spiritual development. The authors draw on their experience as teachers of this method and the many cultures that include this practice in their spiritual traditions.
