All manner of things shall be well
When the tongues of flame are enfolded
Into the crowned knot of fire
And the fire and the rose are one.
(T.S. Eliot – “Little Gidding”)
La tradición es la fe viva de los muertos. El tradicionalismo es la fe muerta de los que viven (Jaroslav Pelikan).
Dear Raúl,
I trust this missive finds you well. Your blog is indeed a delightful pursuit. The thematic choice is most commendable, and I would implore you to grace us with your prose more frequently. The excerpt you shared from Little Gidding warrants some reflection: the phrase ‘All manner of things shall be well’ resonates with a profound sense of assurance and hope amidst the tumultuous uncertainties of our world. Do you find yourself inclined towards the concept of apokatastasis?
Yours sincerely,
