Sinopsis

Acknowledged as one of the greatest of the western mystics, Jacob Boehme was born in 1575 at Old Seidenberg, a small village in Silesia.á A shoemaker by trade, Boehme&rsquo,s whole life was spent in contemplation and prayer, seeking spiritual enlightenment. áHe was rewarded with piercing visions of God and the nature of reality, revelations which he set down in a series of books.á The Clavis is perhaps the most accessible of all these tomes, a detailed, yet succinct, account of the nature of God and Creation, and of humanity&rsquo,s role within the unfolding evolution of the Universe.In 1895 the Reverend Dr. Alexander Whyte bemoaned the lack of a Boehme biography, suggesting that a compilation of the many biographic details scattered throughout his works would give the student a better insight into his thoughts and ideas.á W. Scott Palmer took up the challenge and the result, The Confessions of Jacob Boehme, serves to shine a light on the doubts and temptations that lay on the path to Boehme&rsquo,s eventual enlightenment.
