The book is a guide to self-discovery and understanding, and focuses on the importance of self-knowledge in achieving spiritual enlightenment and inner peace.The Cell of Self Knowledge is divided into three parts, each of which explores a different aspect of self-knowledge. The first part discusses the nature of the soul and the importance of understanding one's own inner being. The second part focuses on the virtues and vices that shape our character, and how we can cultivate positive qualities such as humility, patience, and compassion. The third and final part of the book explores the relationship between the individual and the divine, and how we can achieve spiritual union with God through self-knowledge and contemplation.Throughout the book, Pepwell draws on a range of philosophical and religious traditions, including Christianity, Platonism, and Neoplatonism. He also incorporates anecdotes and stories from his own life and experiences, as well as those of other spiritual seekers.Overall, The Cell of Self Knowledge is a timeless and thought-provoking work that continues to inspire readers to this day. It offers a powerful message of self-discovery and inner transformation, and encourages us to cultivate a deeper understanding of ourselves and our place in the world.And therefore, what so thou be that covetest to come to contemplation of God, that is to say, to bring forth such a child that men clepen in the story Benjamin (that is to say, sight of God), then shalt thou use thee in this manner. Thou shalt call together thy thoughts and thy desires, and make thee of them a church, and learn thee therein for to love only this good word Jesu, so that all thy desires and all thy thoughts are only set for to love Jesu, and that unceasingly as it may be here; so that thou fulfill that is said in the psalm.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
