Written on a scroll smuggled to him by one of his guards, his songs are the ultimate expression of the spiritual seeker's journey from estranged despair to blissful union with the divine. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAfter escaping his captors, John fell into a state of profound ecstasy and wrote \u003ci\u003eDark Night of the Soul\u003c\/i\u003e. Later, he added an important commentary to his poem to guide other searching souls along the arduous path to communion with God. Mirabai Starr, a scholar unaffiliated with the Catholic Church who has studied Buddhism, Hinduism, and Judaism, lends the seeker's sensibility to John's powerful text and brings this classic work to the twenty-first century in a brilliant and beautiful rendering.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThomas Moore, Ph.D., wrote the phenomenal #1 bestsellers \u003cb\u003eCare of the Soul\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eSoulMates\u003c\/b\u003e as well as many other successful books.
