Let us consider the first case, the unaware Spirit. Each of us, each human being, awakes in this raw, violent, disturbing world knowing nothing of who or what we are. There is a mystery to this existence which permeates life even to its very beginnings, and that mystery may be summed up most readily with a single word, a question: “Why?” And although this despair begins as only a mystery, an untouchable darkness, as life in this difficult world progresses and we are indoctrinated into the culture which surrounds us, occasionally tiny pieces of our spirits become visible as the Potentiator of the Spirit, the Lightning, strikes, showing us one of the deep secrets of our hearts – only to have that tiny piece of our spirits caged, cornered, isolated and demonized. Prior to the veiling, the spirit was never demonized, but only mysterious. Now, after the veiling, it is both mysterious and feared, awesome and terrifying, for the secret truths contained within the spirit will, of necessity, challenge any attempt a culture may make at standardizing the human experience.
