“As for The Numinous Way, I
do now incline toward the view that this ethical Way of Life, which I
have developed, is now independent of me, a complete philosophy of
life, and can and should be judged as all such Ways, all such
philosophies are judged, on their merits or their lack of them,
independent of the life, and wanderings and mistakes, of those
individuals who may have brought such Ways into being, or rather, who
have presenced something of the numinous in the causal, just as the
life of an artist, while it may or may not be interesting, does not or
should not detract from or colour an artistic, aesthetic, judgement of
his, or her, works of art.”
