      This comment is rather ironic because the phrase "They don't make them like they used to" is often reserved for trivial and typically unimportant things that are easily replaced or reproduced. Things like tires, clothes or food items. This short book is a masterpiece. It's life changing. You essentially just did what Lewis cautioned us against in the first chapter, you called the waterfall "pretty" with this comment.

      An old bible, i ran across in Corinthians.. Meditate on the word of God and that section mentioned meditation over 10 times as well. So, (those who sat in darkness had a great light wash upon them) this is meditation, when one does meditation right, you will start to see lights with your eyes closed or, if you mediate in a room that is completely dark, you will even see light with eyes open. Darkness shuts down the optical nerve in the eye and allows the pineal gland to work better. If thy eye be single.... its all in the bible... good luck. Oh, i forgot to say, the more meditation one does, they more they understand with out reading a thing, because the connection to God becomes very apparent. If you do it, you just cant deny the connection and this is how we find our for real, God is real.

      Not necessarily. It refers to “the way” which is essentially the core truths that every human have lived by for a very long time. There are minor differences and small developments of “the way” that people have lived by but the way has generally remained throughout time.

All such statements are unimportant. The pupils left ⬅️ to do the work no respectors of value. Their words are they appear to be saying something important. All values subjective and trivial, they are dealing with a boy, ten years hence, a controversy.
