“A divine revelation should not consist only in uprooting us from the world’s profanity in order to install us statically within a sacred world, in the bosom of which we could continue to lead almost the same life we led in the profane world.

Sacred forms, rites, symbols and the Scriptures are basically conversion-makers, which means that we are never done with converting, never done with understanding, because they perplex and surpass all understanding.”
