解説
Explores the journey beyond union, beyond self and God, into the silent and still regions of the Unknown.
In this profound spiritual memoir, one woman chronicles a journey into the deepest reaches of contemplative silence-a silence that begins as a gentle inner stillness and expands into something vast, unsettling, and ultimately life-shattering. What starts as familiar solitude in a seaside monastery chapel becomes an encounter with the unknown so complete that it unravels the boundaries of memory, identity, and selfhood itself.
Across days of overpowering stillness-where ordinary tasks dissolve into moment-to-moment survival and consciousness flickers like a failing candle-she discovers that the silence she entered will not fully release her. When the world finally returns, it returns changed. Something is missing. Something essential. And then, in a moment of startling clarity, she sees the truth: the self she once knew is gone.
What follows is an intimate and unflinching account of spiritual dissolution and awakening-of a joy so immense it floods the soul, and a loss so total it reshapes the meaning of faith, surrender, and God. Drawing on personal experience rather than doctrine, this narrative echoes the great mystics while remaining wholly original, compelling, and deeply human.
