It is said that before creating the world, God first drew its boundaries. Everything in nature confirms this, starting with a cell and its membrane. And if the skull did not exist, where would our brain be? This is exactly the function of our skin too – it serves as a boundary.

Even when you build a house, you have to begin with the frame, for if there were no walls, where would your house be? We have to understand how boundaries apply in the spiritual realm too. Before summoning spirits of light to help him in his work, a magus surrounds himself with a circle; and disciples also know that, if only through thought, they must draw a circle of light* around themselves so as to preserve their spiritual energies.
