I think there is a lot of truth in that.

It does not matter that only a few in each generation will grasp and achieve the full reality of man's proper stature-and the rest will betray it.

It must also have wide repercussions, and will likely bring about, or contribute to, a shift in our understanding of ourselves and our relationship to the rest of the universe.
