Qui la vita interiore di un veggente e il suo rapporto con gli altri, è commentato alla luce dell’insegnamento delle Guide. Queste ripetono che ogni persona che partecipa a un cenacolo deve assumersi la responsabilità di fare un uso costruttivo di quanto questa esperienza le può offrire, non solo nei confronti di se stessa ma anche nei confronti degli altri. E anche noi crediamo che l’insegnamento non ci sia dato per essere nascosto affinché nessuno possa usufruirne, ma per trasmetterlo a chi ne ha bisogno. Ecco il vero motivo della divulgazione.

This is one of my favorite works of weird fantasy fiction by Lord Dunsany, and is a masterful cosmological piece of indulgent prose that actually contains some sublime wisdom between the lines.
