5.0 out of 5 stars It's all about Love, Jan 7 2004
By K. Bennett "Thekla" (Westminster, CO United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Bad cover, great book. Hadewijch, a 13th cent. beguine, is the mystic for all times. She walks us through the methodology of Christ who came for all women. She believes in love, lives for love and demonstrates the ramifications of rejection that necessarily ensue when one is devoted to such a path. She never lets love down. She maps a Zen-like cartography of the suffering that accompanies a life devoted to unconditional love, but gives it minimal value. The benefits of a life lived for others far outweigh the temporary discomfort of ego-amputation. She writes letters, poems in stanzas, visions and poems in couplets. Here is a sample of encouragement from one of her letters:

{p.50} Serve nobly, wish for nothing else, and fear nothing else and let Love freely take care of herself! For Love rewards to the full, even though she often comes late. Let no doubt or disappointment ever turn you away from performing acts of virtue; let no ill success cause you to fear that you yourself will not come to conformity with God. You must not doubt this, and you must not believe in men on earth, saints, or angels, even if tey work wonders (Gal. 1:8); for you were called early, and your heart feels, at least sometimes, that you are chosen, and that God has begun to sustain your soul in abandonment.
