Chapter 5

This chapter explores the idea that history represents a gradual decline or limitation of the sacred, yet the sacred continues to manifest itself in new and spontaneous ways. It emphasizes that despite the repetition of sacred manifestations across societies and history, each moment holds the possibility for a fuller and more complete revelation of the sacred.
