(Today Jane has been really “out of it.” She’s felt a lot of muscular discomfort with her physical improvements, though, making it hard to concentrate. By 8:30, when she’d finished doing the dishes, the overall soreness had dissipated to some degree, but she appeared to be so groggy with relaxation that I hardly expected her to want to have a session.

His life was one of those lives that were finally used to compose the composite image of the biblical Christ.

The great mystery, of course, and great questions, rest in the nature of that inner reality from which man weans (repeated at my question) his religions, and in the power of the creative abilities themselves that bring them into birth (all quite intently). Such activities on a large scale are the end result of each natural person’s individual relationship with nature, and with nature’s source.
