Who this is
“He is antiquity's most rigorous mystic: a man who claimed the highest truth cannot be put into words — and then argued his way toward it, step by logical step, and reported reaching it four times.”
The big idea, in the book's words:
“All reality flows out from a single, perfect source — the One — the way light flows from the sun; and everything, including you, secretly yearns to flow back.”
