Looking closely at these times, when people, by inserting such days or weeks, expressed, as it were, the non-coincidence of human calculation with the course of the cosmos, and when the priests regarded these times as sacred weeks, provides all the more reason for anyone who wants to find their way into the course of human development. For in such holy weeks, which made it so very noticeable that the thinking of the gods is different from that of men, in such times when this difference becomes clear, the way can be found from the gods to men and from men to the gods, if the hearts of the gods and the hearts of men are in harmony.
