3.12
The intensity of this tree, bound with its god, isn’t just an intensity (as though an intensity is an intensity is an intensity); rather, it’s a particular intensity. This tree explodes for us.
A tree, too, encounters intensities: pools of water, rich or barren soil, sunlight streaming or rain pouring down.
The gods are those who orient us, where ‘us’ is whatever entity is in question. Every entity opens to intensities, spirits, and divinities.
