• On previous occasions when God incarnated on earth, the bliss of recognising Him in the incarnation was vouchsafed only after the physical embodiment had left the world, in spite of plenty of evidences of His Grace.

You will be convinced that the basic reason for this is the fact that this is the Supra-worldly Divinity in Human Form.

I'm even flattered! It's what success is like. I'm happy I seem unreal to them, it means I'm doing a good job.
