No other book of its typeuntil the appearance in 1946 of Aldous Huxleys The Perennial Philosophymet with success to match that of her bestknown work, Mysticism, published in 1911.This book is Evelyn Underhills translation of the medieval spiritual guidebook called The Cloud of Unknowing, written by an anonymous English monk. At the core is a mystical approach to Christian prayer, in which God is found not through rote knowledge, but through blind love. It has been described as Christianity with a Zen outlook. J.B. HareThe Cloud of Unknowing (Middle English The Cloude of Unknowyng) is an anonymous work of Christian mysticism written in Middle English in the latter half of the 14th century. The text is a spiritual guide on contemplative prayer in the late Middle Ages. The underlying message of this work suggests that the way to know God is to abandon consideration of Gods particular activities and attributes, and be courageous enough to surrender ones mind and ego to the realm of "unknowing", at which point one may begin to glimpse the nature of God.
