The Cloud of Unknowing is a classic work of Christian mysticism written in the 14th century by an anonymous author. The book is a spiritual guide that teaches the reader how to reach a state of contemplative prayer, in which one can experience a deep and intimate connection with God. The author emphasizes the importance of letting go of all preconceived notions and concepts about God in order to enter into a state of unknowing, where one can encounter God in a more profound way. The Cloud of Unknowing offers practical advice on how to cultivate a contemplative prayer practice, including techniques for quieting the mind and focusing on God's presence. The book is written in a simple and direct style, making it accessible to readers of all levels of spiritual experience. It remains a beloved and influential work in the Christian tradition, inspiring generations of seekers to deepen their relationship with God through contemplative prayer.And therefore take good heed unto time, how that thou dispendest it: for nothing is more precious than time. In one little time, as little as it is, may heaven be won and lost. A token it is that time is precious: for God, that is given of time, giveth never two times together, but each one after other. And this He doth, for He will not reverse the order or the ordinal course in the cause of His creation. For time is made for man, and not man for time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
