Our extroverted society has vilified and made humanity incapable of dealing with the important state of being called loneliness. Social media and mass media have made us more isolated to one another, eroded our sense of real community, and robbed of us of the coping skills to handle those sacred times of inner contemplation. Great masters and artists in the past gained their Gnosis through understanding the opportunities of revelatory loneliness; but this ability is slowly vanishing under the chatter of a noisy world impeding us to glance inwardly or at the deeper sources of our being. We bring light to this dark shadow that is eroding the collective consciousness and hiding our access to the collective unconsciousness. We explore the philosophies, psychologies, and theologies that championed the holy temple of loneliness. We take example from past luminaries who found great truths and unified humanity in their voyages into the oasis of loneliness. We learn that even while in solitude we are never truly alone, and never will be.
