The Divine Bridegroom

By Paul Carus and Dr Paul Carus

Book Overview

The Divine Bridegroom is a book written by Paul Carus that explores the concept of mystical union between the human soul and God. The author draws upon various religious traditions, including Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism, to illustrate the idea of the divine as a loving and intimate partner. Carus argues that the human longing for union with the divine is a universal human experience, and that this longing can be fulfilled through spiritual practices such as prayer, meditation, and contemplation. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the divine bridegroom metaphor, such as the nature of love, the role of suffering in spiritual growth, and the importance of surrendering oneself to the divine. The Divine Bridegroom is a thought-provoking and insightful read for anyone interested in spirituality, mysticism, and the search for meaning in life.THIS 30 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Bride of Christ A Study in Christian Legend Lore, by Paul Carus.
