You've mentioned several times about the effect of public adulation on public figures, and as a music performer (strictly small time) I've often half-joked that my drug of choice is the performance high. I can see quite easily how musicians get sucked into drugs chasing that high.
My firstborn is pursuing a professional performing arts career in ballet. He is currently Master Councilor of his chapter of DeMolay, has a hearty respect for ritual and old ideas, a fair amount of natural ability to sense non-physical entities, the usual dash of familial precognitive dreams, and is a baptized practicing Christian. Is gifting him Mr. Knight's book a good choice, or is there a better option for such a young man? He will, of course, do with it as he pleases, at this point my duty is simply making him aware of resources that he might not otherwise find.
