This review is from: Signature of all Things; of the Supersensual Life; of Heaven and Hell; Discourse Between Two Souls (Paperback)

Boehme saw the relationship (Signature) between God and Man in all things. This relationship pertained to the outer (nature) as well as the inner (the eternal being). There is spiritual beauty within his writings and much to be gained from this Christian Mystic.
