This is an automatically translated description

The publication includes The Climb of Mount Carmel and The Dark Night, two closely related treatises by St John of the Cross, a famous Spanish mystic, church writer, and poet. In both treatises, the author describes the path that a soul filled with love for God takes as it strives to reach perfect union with the Creator. An integral part of this path is the purification of the soul, the active aspects of which are described in Climbing Mount Carmel; the passive aspects of this purification are described in Dark Night.
