“The Quest of the Holy Grail, the Search for the Stone of the Philosophers - by whatever name we choose to call the Great Work - is therefore endless. Success only opens up new avenues of brilliant possibility. Yea, verily, and Amen! the task is tireless and its joys without bounds; for the whole Universe, and all that in it is, what is it but the infinite playground of the Crowned and Conquering Child, of the insatiable, the innocent, the ever-rejoicing Heir of Space and Eternity, whose name is MAN?” MenChildrenWholeJoySpiritualityUniverseNamesSpacePossibilityHolyStonesTasksEternityInfiniteBoundsPhilosopherBrilliantEndlessInnocentConquerRejoiceQuestsGreat WorkAvenuesHeirsAmenPlaygroundsInsatiableHoly Grail Book:Little Essays Toward Truth Source: Little Essays Toward Truth
