If you are discussing Blake you are discussing one of the greatest spiritual giants ever. You might just as well discuss St. Paul, for they had exactly the same visions, the vision of reality. Tonight we can cover only some of his gift to the planet. In his "Auguries of Innocence" he says: "To see a World in a Grain of Sand

Hold Infinity in the palm of your palm
And Eternity in an hour." What is the sequence? The best inanimate part of the planet, a grain of sand, and in it to see a world.

And now he comes to space: "Hold Infinity in the palm of your palm." And then to time: "And Eternity in an hour."
