The warmer phase of convalescence arrives when the convalescent finally casts off the last hearth value: the belief that if there were anything of value at all, that value would have to be metaphysically or theologically grounded. To cast that off is to recognize that by abolishing the metaphysical world we have thereby abolished the merely apparent world.
- ==The warm phase begins after throwing reliance to the supernatural and seeing the natural world as it is.
