::NSFW:: "Whenever, by listening to the hidden voices within me, I succeeded in following the blood instead of the mind (which quickly pants and halts), I arrived with mystic certitude at my remotest ancestral beginnings. Afterwards, in time, this mysterious certitude was strengthened by palpable signs of everyday life. Although I thought these signs accidental at first and did not pay attention, I was finally able, by blending the voice of visible world and my hidden inner voices, to penetrate the primordial darkness beneath the mind, lift up the trap door, and see. And from the moment I saw, my soul began to solidify. It no longer flowed with constant fluctuation like water; a face began to thicken and de congeal now around a luminous core, the face of my soul." Nikos Kazantzakis
