SPIRITUAL MARRIAGE

UNION WITH GOD

Abstract

This paper tries to discuss the mystical views of one of the grand mystics of 6th century Spain called John of the Cross. He is one of major mystics who have clearly manifested the realistic, ascetic, and valorous Spanish mysticism in their works. His mystical experience began when he was in jail and through the revelations he perceived, trying to reflex his beautiful and valuable experience in his works and writings. Thus, after going through his works one can clearly get to know his mentality over mysticism. Out of his major objectives in this regard is sublimation of spirit and achieving UNION WITH GOD which is known to be as SPIRITUAL MARRIAGE. It should be mentioned that none of other mystics of the time could make us come up with the clear realities of spiritual life except John of the Cross. He wanted to show us a unified goal that exists prior to this spiritual world and the cost it requires. He is one of few mystics that manifest such an affectionate goal in an extremely careful manner, extraterrestrial and vigorous. Though his writings are apparently pedantic and personal, there is no doubt that there are personal experiences lying behind, undoubtedly trying to prove his just words that "God understands that value of our endeavors more than others' efforts to do good to us".Since mysticism has joined basis among the whole religions, as a result, John's views could be compared with those of some of Islamic Mystics including Ibn Arabi and Rabeah Adoviah. This paper seeks to have a brief comparison of them.
