In this book Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee describes the intoxicating intensity of his own spiritual journey, which began when he was sixteen. Three years later he met his teacher and felt a sense of belonging beyond this world. The events that follow over the next twenty-two years tell of tremendous love, psychological breakdown, craziness, bliss, and the slow work of balancing the two worlds-the inner world of the spirit and the outer demands of everyday family life. This autobiography tells the ancient story of a spiritual transformation, one that took him into the terrifying depths and pushed him beyond every limit. As it made him vulnerable and empty, love showed him her hidden face.

He describes the way of mystical prayer and of listening with the heart. He offers valuable insight into power and the spiritual life: how to use one’s power to break free of restrictions and live the joy of one’s divine nature.
