and yet i am sorry to lose God...

“Imagine: inside, in the nerves, in the head — that is, these nerves are there in the brain … (damn them!) there are sort of little tails, the little tails of those nerves, and as soon as they begin quivering … that is, you see, I look at something with my eyes and then they begin quivering, those little tails … and when they quiver, then an image appears … it doesn’t appear at once, but an instant, a second, passes … and then something like a moment appears; that is, not a moment — devil take the moment! — but an image; that is, an object, or an action, damn it! That’s why I see and then think, because of those tails, not at all because I’ve got a soul, and that I am some sort of image and likeness. All that is nonsense! Rakitin explained it all to me yesterday, brother, and it simply bowled me over. It’s magnificent, Alyosha, this science! A new man’s arising — that I understand…. And yet I am sorry to lose God!”

The imprisoned Dmitri Karamazov as he tries to make sense of what he has just learned from a visiting academic from Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s, The Brothers Karamazov (1880)

odour of sanctity

odour of sanctity
One of the phenomena taken throughout the Christian era as evidence of sainthood is the odour of sanctity: a pleasant fragrance (most often described as the scent of flowers) detected when a holy a holy person dies. If an individual is described (without irony) as dying in the odour of sanctity, this means that he or she dies a saint. The odour of sanctity is particularly associated with saints whose bodies are reported to remain incorruptable after death.

A murder of ravens haunts the Dreaming:
slow wings flapping bleakly
like shadows or old men stumbling,
battle-birds, dark dwellers in the aftermath.
