Love Is a Secret: The Mystic Quest for Divine Love
By Dr. Andrew Vidich

“Over the last 5000 years, inspired leaders and giants of all the great spiritual traditions have produced a rich collection of writings describing the transcendent states of love they have experienced. This book draws on all the great wisdom traditions from Taoism to Christianity, from Islam to Judaism, to describe the psychology of humankind’s deepest spiritual encounters.

“It identifies 10 distinct psychological states common to all spiritual experience. A study of the specific characteristics of each state reveals that mystics from widely different theologies, times and cultures have experienced God’s love in remarkably similar ways. Their words show us what intimate encounters with “The Great Beloved” feel like, and how we can cultivate and achieve these mystical states in our own lives.

“The compassionate wisdom in the pages of this book is a moving testament to the universal majesty, variety and splendor of the experience of God’s unconditional love. This is a book which seekers and students will enjoy for its insight as well as its message of hope: that Divine Love is available to all who seek it with humility and grace, and those who in its radiance are not only transfigured, but empowered to change the world.”

​”This book eloquently describes the real life-work of every mature human being in every great culture of humanity.”  Shaikh Nur al-Jerrrahi ​USA Leader of al Jerrahi Sufi Order.
