What he sees, and is, in that deeply withdrawn state, is not the same as what he experiences later when he is back in the outer world again. The transformation is not steadfast and abiding. There, he was superhuman; here, he is all too human. Even his remembrance of it will necessarily be in terms of what he himself once again is.
