After the typing,* I had to do some client work, and our own annual tax;** then a week or so on the vegetable garden; now [D[Y]]*** is here, and I am hanging doors. But all the recent to-ing & fro-ing between Mrs. Thatcher,**** other Politicians, and the Churches has convinced me of my personal need to study and know the Gospels.

The three-stage ascension noted above# can be applied to perceptions of Christ: first, as an external (i.e. historical) phenomenon, Jesus; second, as an internalised perception or symbol or representation of an external phenomenon, i.e. #*Christ, the Son of God, taken into your life; third, and finally in this progression, as a Quality within the Mind. Christ is paramount over all Qualities; Christ as Quality.
