"Whereas our outer consciousness expresses itself in words, our inner consciousness communicates in symbols. Throughout history we have used symbolic systems of one kind or another, to enable our inner selves to evolve. These systems are like springs welling up from some deep reservoir which appears to be fed by the totality of our experience of ourselves and our universe. Thus, any profound system of symbology has a universal dimension, through its source."
