One of Henry Corbin's great contributions to spirituality is his insistence on both the freedom and the responsibility inherent in the exercise of the creative imagination that lives in each of us. The visionary recital, the récit, is an account of the form of human life lived to its fullest and most sacred potential. It is a form of life to which we can all aspire, however varied our paths, and however often we doubt ourselves - however often we fall. The Path always opens out ahead. I have tried to articulate some sense of this challenge in other places. I make available here the final chapter of After Prophecy (without the notes) for those who may not have access to the book, in the hope that some may find it of use.
