Toward the Light (in Danish Vandrer mod Lyset) is an ethical, philosophical and religious work, first published in Denmark in 1920.
According to the publisher of Toward the Light, Michael Agerskov, the work came into being by means of inspiration and intuition through the human intermediary, his wife Johanne Elisabeth Agerskov (born Malling-Hansen), a Danish woman. It contains the following sections:
- Ardor's Account
- The Speech of Christ
- The speech of God's Servant
- Parables
- Commentary
- Summary
- Postscript
- The Doctrine of Atonement, said to be a message from the personality who was once incarnated as Saul from Tarsus (Paul)
- A message said to be from Christ, regarding the misconception that he should be one with God.
- A message said to be from the personality who was once incarnated as Ignatius Loyola, in which he describes the shorter road to the kingdom of God.
Prior to Toward the Light, a book called Greetings to Denmark was published (1915). It contains poems which are said to be from a number of well known danish poets, who lived in Denmark in the late 18th century and in the 19th century. Among those one from Hans Christian Andersen. All these poems came into being through the intermediary Johanne Elisabeth Agerskov.
