Book Overview

""How The Inner Light Failed: A Study Of The Atrophy Of The Spiritual Sense To Which Is Added How The Inner Light Grows"" is a book written by Newell Dwight Hillis that explores the concept of the inner light and how it can either grow or fail. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the atrophy of the spiritual sense and the second part focusing on how the inner light can grow. Hillis argues that many people today have lost touch with their spiritual sense, which he defines as the ability to perceive the divine or spiritual realm. He explores the various reasons why this has happened, including the rise of materialism and the decline of traditional religion. Hillis also examines the consequences of this loss, such as a lack of purpose and fulfillment in life.In the second part of the book, Hillis offers hope by exploring how the inner light can grow. He argues that this can be achieved through various practices, such as meditation, prayer, and contemplation. Hillis also emphasizes the importance of community and finding like-minded individuals who can support one another on the spiritual journey.Overall, ""How The Inner Light Failed"" is a thought-provoking book that challenges readers to examine their spiritual sense and consider how they can cultivate it in their lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
