Αγαπητοί συνοδηπόροι — Dear fellow travelers
Before I wrote any of this down, I asked his permission to use real people and real situations. I have never forgotten the answer.
“I know exactly what you want to do. Use this whole work as a motive, as a springboard, for your own unfolding first. But let the Paraclete himself decide its course. Whether it affects the consciousnesses beside you, as you put it, or leaves them entirely indifferent, is not your concern. Try only that it be deeply pure and absolutely objective. Truth and sincerity hold the power of the intentions of Creation.”
— Elder Petros
That is the whole shape of my role. Not a teacher with a message to land. A witness under instruction to be accurate, and to let go of what happens next.
It is also why I have not tidied myself up in these pages. I record the times I argued, sulked, misunderstood, and walked off annoyed. Accuracy was the assignment.
Good journey, Fellow Traveler
