Proiectio Projection

In the vessel. A small amount of the finished stone is cast onto molten base metal, which is transmuted. It is the moment of use, and it comes last.

In a life. The deliberate application of what you have become to the people and situations around you. It is lived as purpose: not assigned from outside, generated from within, and quiet enough to last.

Where would what you have become be of use this week?

The Inner Circle

A letter with each new episode: the sources behind it, a passage from the primary text, and the question to work with. Nothing else.
