Excerpt from The Open Secret: A Study of Life's Deeper Forces
One of the notable things in that notable book Of the Old Testament containing the prophecies of Ezekiel is the curious vision with which the book opens.
A labyrinth of wheels and monstrous crea tures - the despair Of commentators - is de scribed, where within the beryl-tinted wheels are still other wheels, and again within each wheel there is enclosed the spirit of some liv ing creature. Whenever any draughtsman has sought to make a representation Of these winged cherubim, with their bovine feet and symbolic faces of beast and man, appearing like burning coals, or has tried to Sketch pic tures of these enclosing wheels that were each enclosed by other wheels and in their swift mo tion followed the guidance of the living spirits within - whenever, I say, any artist has tried to depict this vision he has found it impos sible to imagine it without becoming involved in inextricable confusion.
