These are foolish, insane ideas of yours about Upasika, Henry, wretched thoughts — the mirage thrown upon your brain by some of those who surround you... Do not take as an excuse your honesty. Honesty without Justice is like a drunken watchman’s bull’s eye — made but to throw light on his own distorted features leaving all around him in greater darkness still. . . You wrong her from beginning to end. You have never understood Upasika, nor the laws thro’ which her apparent life has been made to work since you knew her. You are ungrateful and unjust and even cruel. You take maya for reality and reality for illusion. I have said and shall say no more, and now if you don’t listen and believe what I now tell you I shall have to turn Karma into a new direction.
