Dialogues on the Supersensual Life

Description

Dialogues on the Supersensual Life is a work by Jacob Boehme, a German Christian mystic and theologian. This book comprises dialogues between a spiritual teacher and his student, examining the divine and the journey toward the 'supersensual life' — a state of spiritual enlightenment that transcends the physical world. Through these conversations, Boehme addresses topics such as the nature of God, the purpose of human existence, the role of suffering and evil, and the path to spiritual transformation. Drawing from his mystical experiences and insights, Boehme provides a unique perspective on these profound questions. The book is written in a poetic and metaphorical style, with the dialogues often having a dream-like quality. It is meant to be read slowly and reflectively, encouraging readers to deepen their understanding of the spiritual life.

This book has 38,000 words, 59 pages in the PDF version, and was originally published in 1624. This edition, edited by Bernard Holland, was first published in 1901.
