He gives the wheat: we must reap and grind and bake it. -Evelyn Underhill \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn these two classics, British poet and mystic Evelyn Underhill shows herself to be one of the most authoritative modern voices on mysticism.

Underhill's goal is to guide her readers on a journey toward mystical consciousness, to teach them to see the eternal beauty beyond and beneath apparent ruthlessness.\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbba\u003c\/b\u003e, first published in 1940, takes as its starting point the seven phrases of the Lord's Prayer, using them as a means to propel the self toward union with God.
