This will be a very difficult period for you, but it will not be so for long. 2You cannot remain in darkness, and this will be the way out. 3Look as calmly as you can upon your hatred, for if we are to deny the denial of truth,11 we must first recognize what we are denying. 4Remember that knowledge precedes denial,12 and that the separation was a descent from magnitude to littleness.13 5And so the way back is to retrace the way to magnitude.
