Mar. 23rd, 2014 02:47 pmI really enjoyed this book. I was surprised by how upbuilding it was. I enjoyed the points about the idea of a resurection.
I liked the insight:
In the palace of the king there are many rooms and there is a key for each one. An axe is, however the passkey of passkeys, for with it one can break through all the doors and all the gates.
Each prayer has its own meaning and it is therefore a specific key to a door in the Divine Palace, but a broken heart is an axe which opens all the gates.
