The Divine Shekinah seeks deliverance from exile to heal a world desperately in need of Her wisdom.

If they choose the path of righteousness, love, and forgiveness, Her light can return to the world. Will the mission succeed? Will the divine feminine return to the world? The Shekinah calls to all of us to find our own way to ‘knit the world back together.’

About the Author
Leah Chyten has been a philosopher since youth. Her essay “Life as a Creative Unfoldment” won state recognition as the most original graduation speech in the state of MA. Before attending college she homesteaded in Maine, where she raised animals, children, and vegetables and compiled a collection of songs, poetry, short stories, and a novel. After reluctantly leaving the woods to study psychology and spiritual traditions she became a psychotherapist, workshop leader, and teacher of spirituality. She currently lectures and facilitates groups that explore all facets and dimensions of human potential.
Reviews
"Leah Chyten’s Light Radiance Splendor is at its essence a beautiful love story between humanity and the Shekinah, the feminine aspect of the divine. Unrelenting in its depiction of the human drama, it begs each character to respond with forgiveness and love in order that She may return, and offer Her much needed guidance to a world in desperate need of healing. The book is masterful in presenting universal themes in a deeply personal way. Reading Light Radiance Splendor is a consciousness-changing experience."
