' Beware what you pray for '...

Beware what you pray for.

Do not ask for the truth unless you know what it means and all that it implies and nevertheless are still willing to accept it.

For if it is granted to you, it will not only purge the evil out of you but later purify the egoism from your mind.

Will you be able to endure this loss, which is unlikely to be a painless one?
