'The eye sees light, but it is by its own light that it knows what it looks at. The eye is a fire, is the sun, the center of origination and the light of reason; and again, it is the Evil Eye...In nature, in dreams, in art, in legends from around the world and in many forms of mysticism, the eye--mirror of divinity--reflects our gaze inwards in search of the self and the Great Being who sees all.; with 129 illus., 16 in color.'
