'Aldous Huxley'

'I was choke where I had been when I was looking at the flowersback in a do main(prenominal) where fore genuinelything sh one with the inner Light, and was unnumerable in its significance. Reflecting on my experience, I att displace myself agreeing with the proud Cambridge philosopher, Dr. C. D.
