About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from The Science of Symbols Setting Forth the True Reason for Symbolism and Ritual, Their Relation, to the Teaching of Christ, and Their, Necessary Adoption by All Forms, of Religious Expression

There is a belief, I trust no longer a growing one, that all our traditions, ideals, and enthusiasms can be classified and catalogued, and their proper uses as satisfactorily stated and learnt, as the bones of our bodies or the bits of our bicycles; and while this belief prevails Lit sterilises every attempt to approach this subject from a more natural, a more spontaneous, a more imaginative and less mechanical point of view.
