"Infinity is immanent everywhere and accessible, in principle, to all. But no one can ever be fully purified, or fully prepared, for an encounter with the Infinite. Accept it. Embrace imperfection as the starting point in any ascent. The lotus flower ascends and emerges into the sunlight upon a stem that stretches down into the darkest depths."
