When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; Until Iwent intothesanctuaryof God; thenunderstood I their end.

-Bible (Old Testament)
Psalms 73:16^17.

And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and fora rockof offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

-Bible (Old Testament)
Isaiah 8:14.

We were now actually in the inner sanctuary of the Nanda Devi Basin, and at each step I experienced that subtlethrill which anyone of imagination must feel when treading hitherto unexplored country† My most blissful dream as a child was to be in some such valley, free to wander where I liked, and discover for myself some hitherto unrevealed glory of Nature. Now the reality was no less wonderful than that half-forgotten dream; and of how many childish fancies can that be said, in this age of disillusionment ?
