The Cherubinic Wanderer, By Angelus Silesius, Compiled and Edited by Marilynn Hughes – A German Mystical Poet who wrote in the form of couplets in the 1700’s. His mystical and out of body travel work has held the imagination of spiritual seekers for centuries.

A mystical and philosophical work written by the 17th-century German theologian and mystic, Johann Georg Gichtel. The book is a deeply introspective spiritual journey that explores the nature of divine wisdom, mystical experiences, and the soul’s relationship with God. It is often considered a key text in Christian mysticism, emphasizing the inner, personal path to spiritual enlightenment and the union of the soul with the divine.

The book is presented as a series of dialogues and reflections that describe the author’s mystical journey, or “wandering,” through various spiritual realms and experiences. The title refers to the “cherubim,” heavenly beings often associated with the highest form of wisdom and understanding in the Christian tradition. In the context of the book, the cherubim symbolize the wisdom and divine knowledge that the soul seeks to attain.

The Cherubinic Wanderer focuses on the inner experiences of spiritual ascent, where the soul seeks union with God through meditation, prayer, and mystical contemplation. The work delves into themes of divine love, grace, purification, and the deeper understanding of God’s presence in the world. The book’s language is highly symbolic, filled with allegorical imagery that invites readers to reflect on their own spiritual paths.

Gichtel’s teachings in The Cherubinic Wanderer emphasize the importance of inner silence, self-discipline, and direct communion with God, presenting the reader with a mystical roadmap for personal transformation and spiritual awakening. It explores the profound truth that wisdom and enlightenment are not found in external teachings alone, but through direct, mystical experience with the divine.

For those interested in Christian mysticism, esoteric spirituality, and the pursuit of inner transformation, The Cherubinic Wanderer offers deep insights into the nature of divine knowledge and the soul’s journey toward union with God. It remains a significant text for those on the path of spiritual discovery and enlightenment, guiding them to explore the inner realms of the spirit.

The Shepherd of Hermas, By Hermas of Rome, Compiled and Edited by Marilynn Hughes – Hermas of Rome, 2nd Century, Translated by Rev. F. Crombie, M.A., 1885 – This text was considered a book on par with the Book of Revelations in the Early Church. It is a very intense, highly shocking, apocalyptic and visionary text that all who wish to understand the early Christian world should read. It is a fantastic mystical and out-of-body experience.

One of the most significant early Christian writings, regarded as an important text in the development of Christian thought and practice. Written by Hermas, a Christian of the 2nd century, it is presented as a series of visions, mandates, and parables, offering a deeply spiritual and moralistic view of Christian life and salvation.

The text is divided into three main sections: Visions, Mandates, and Similitudes (or Parables). In the Visions, Hermas recounts a series of mystical encounters with a shepherd, who serves as both a guide and a divine messenger. These visions explore themes of repentance, the nature of sin, and the divine mercy offered to those who seek redemption. The Mandates provide practical instructions and moral guidelines for living a righteous life, urging believers to repent, practice charity, and maintain faith in the face of trials. The Similitudes (or Parables) are allegorical teachings that use symbolic imagery to convey deeper spiritual truths, providing insights into the nature of the Church, salvation, and the relationship between humanity and God.

The Shepherd of Hermas was highly regarded by early Christians and was even considered by some to be scripture, though it was ultimately not included in the New Testament canon. Its teachings emphasize the importance of repentance, the power of the Church as a guiding force, and the necessity of moral living in preparation for the second coming of Christ.

For readers interested in early Christian literature, The Shepherd of Hermas offers a valuable window into the spiritual and ethical concerns of the early Church. Through its vivid imagery, moral exhortations, and emphasis on divine forgiveness, the text provides timeless insights into the Christian journey of faith, repentance, and salvation.

Bridal Mysticm: An Overview, By Marilynn Hughes – Bridal Mysticism was first identified in the Old Testament and continued into the New Testament and found itself expressed very vividly in the lives of certain saints who came to be known as the Bridal Mystics. In the scriptures, God’s love for His people was often characterized as a similar relationship to that of the Bridegroom and the Bride. It was typified this way to show the ecstatic love and mystical union which can be achieved between a human person and the divine, wherein God becomes in a sense ‘the lover.’ This happens in mystical and out of body travel experiences.

‘Bridal Mysticism: An Overview’ takes you into this fascinating subject in the religions around the world and then more specifically in the lives of the Catholic Saints in whom this concept was perfected.

“This is a beautiful book about love, ‘Bridal Mysticism: An Overview.’ It is not like many “love” books about love, but about the only TRUE LOVE. Some parts left me speechless with tears in my eyes. This could be perfect Valentine’s present for my wife (but I will wait for her birthday) with many lessons of True Love in Jesus for both of us. Although I read many authors summarized in this book, showing common theme from all of them magnifies tremendously the whole aspect of bridal theology. Thank you for your book, your work. Love Greg” – Greg, Reader, USA
