Soul Calls Six ~ Dark Night is about the Dark Night of the Soul and assurances of the hidden Divine Presence.

Sri Gyanamata, in the book God Alone has written: “If, in the darkness, the mind never wavers, if love and longing never grow weak, it is then that you prove to yourself that you really have the love of God.”

The Dark Night of the Soul is one of the universal experiences of the spiritual journey which is referenced by spiritual traditions throughout the world. Into every sincere devotee's heart comes, at least once, the experience of The Dark Night of the Soul.

St. John of the Cross said there are two types of the Dark Night of the Soul; the one experienced by the striving devotee, and the secret, deeper, darker night, known only to a few who have traveled far on the way to enlightenment.

Each type of Dark Night has as its purpose the furthering of the devotee’s patience, perseverance, endurance, surrender and unconditional love for God. When all seems lost and only those attributes are capable of manifesting, and in so doing with great absorption, is the devotee propelled onward and upward on its journey to Oneness.

The stages and nuances of the Dark Night are many and varied, but common to all is the feeling of being spiritually lost, adrift; bereft. The greater the love for God, and the deeper the communion has been, the greater the sense of darkness, loss, and bereavement. The devotee intuitively knows this dark night of the soul is a gift from the Divine with hidden sublime blessings, and that only Divine Grace can lift the veil.

In Soul Calls Six ~ Dark Night we find the devotee calling to God from the depths of spiritual loneliness with a one-pointedness urgency that eclipses the worldly view; crying for realization of that great Divine Love it knows is there, but cannot feel.

And then The All Compassionate Divine answers – “Oh, My Little One, hang on to Me; I’m here; rest now and let Me comfort you. Don’t be afraid; your Dawn is coming; soon you will know Me.”

~*~*~*~

The communion inherent in the Soul Calls Music Meditations is often a reciprocal one, in that not only does the devotee call to the Divine, but very often the Divine speaks to the devotee through them. The Soul Calls are a catalyst for the Divine Romance.

Echoing the mystics of the ages, English lyrics and classical Indian instrumentation peacefully carry you inward ever closer to the Waiting Presence of the Divine.
