Once it touches you
It touches in a special way that nothing else has ever done.
Such that often times you shed tears as it hits or strikes you. Such that you understand your old experiences, and present ones better when viewed under its lens.
It grips and dazes you. It sweeps you off your feet and draws you warmly along as you examine along.
As you try to flow along, the profundity of its unique dazzling expressions, explanations and style of writing, dazzles you.
It becomes suddenly increasingly brighter and luminous within and around you. You become joyful as new recognitions flow in and knock themselves into place.
Clarity sets in gradually and you become increasingly lighter and happier, as you are automatically drawn along in the explanations, which, to you, are beyond the ordinary,.
And surprisingly, each time you read a sentence or part of it, new and different recognitions stream in.
In other words, you draw fresh recognitions and understanding each time you open it. It feeds you anew and serves you fresh drink.
It is Inexhaustible. It gives and gives provided you are earnest..
You need nothing else to convince you that this is beyond the ordinary; that it stands on a pedestal of Its own; that it is exclusive; that it is above anything else on earth.
