One
of the hardest things in the World is to accept, as you approach the
+C†I~ point on the Outer Circle, that even if you do everything
correctly, you are going to be sent back* into that World from which
you thought you had escaped, to do what you are told to do to the
best of your limited ability. It is so nice to think that you are
about to achieve all there is to achieve: but self-examination
suggests otherwise.
So
where is my fundamentalist friend? Who has entered his life? The
answer** – I think, but do not know – is Raphael,*** the affable
Angel, the Companion of pilgrims, **** Christ seen still from the
Outer Circle: “Do not be afraid; peace be with you. Bless God for
ever.”#
*{Somewhere
in one of the 2 books he leant/gave [to] me, is an intriguing
reference to a Christian clergyman apparently saying something
similar: that when you have found or come to Christ you have to turn
away again. (My recollection may be inaccurate.)}
**I
am not now happy with this. <900916>
***(Remember
that these are only names.) <880315>
****(This
seems an arrogant presumption) <880321>
[Presumably,
the arrogance is in the presumption that that is where the
fundamentalist friend was.]
