The collection "The Crossing of Silence" comprises an inner journey in three stages. The impossible quest to grasp "The Other Side of Universal History" is that of what escapes sight and reason—night, inspiration, silence… It opens itself to this, to that which grants it access, these "Mysteries of the Emerging Shadow," the advent within us of inspiration, beauty, and the sacred joy of that of which we are not the origin, but mere messengers. These messengers, to fulfill the mission that overwhelms them and gives them meaning, must embrace what flows through them despite themselves in a "sacred epic," the epic of all mystics, artists, and poets.
