' The Messenger '...


In the case of persons who are not consciously seeking for the reality or truth, the glimpse may also come but may be turned away, refused, and rejected.

This may happen because of their earthy character, materialistic belief, or excessively outgoing orientation.

The first faint beginning of the glimpse is suppressed and its importance simply unrecognized.

Even if its hushed gentle beauty is momentarily felt, it will be pushed aside as mere daydreaming.

Thus these people deny, unwittingly, the messenger and lose what could have been a precious chance to discover what is best in them.
