You've felt it your whole life.
That restlessness nothing satisfies. The hunger that remains after every achievement, every relationship, every attempt to name it or numb it. It keeps returning — patient, persistent, undefeated.
What if that ache is not a problem to be solved? What if it's the very thing leading you home?
THE GREAT LONGING reveals what the ache actually is — and where it leads. Something is drawing you toward Union with God — and toward the True Self hidden beneath everything you built to survive.
This book maps the entire journey:
The Path — Union as the cosmic principle at the heart of reality. The Great Longing as the Spirit who drives everything.
The Passage — The dark night, when the false self falls away. What remains when everything you constructed is stripped. The True Self revealed — not achieved, but uncovered.
The Return — Contemplative prayer as the practice that holds it together. Living in presence. The Wedding Feast that waits on the other side — not just peace, but joy.
This is not abstract theology. It is a map written by someone who walked the passage. The insights came through contemplative prayer, through the small yeses that opened into something given.
Whether you are just beginning to notice the ache, or you are in the middle of a dark night and wondering if dawn will ever come, this book offers both understanding and practical guidance.
The Great Longing in you is the same Longing that created the universe and is gathering scattered souls home. It is God longing for God — through you.
You long because you are Longed for.
Trust the ache. It knows THE WAY.
