At that moment suddenly an immense gale roared by, sending huge masses of clouds from the left. In those greyblack water-bearers raged lightning and thunder. A gigantic, fiery boar rushed forth from the clouds straight towards Mani and Sol, and behind him stately horsemen in full armour came chasing along.

The boar drove boisterous storms of fire in front of him. A horseman in a deepblue coat on a pale horse led the warriors.
Their horses were black as coal; the warriors led them with fiery spurs and iron bridles.
Belching fire from their nostrils and mouths, they looked at Mani with fiery eyes.

Noisily the wild flying host of armoured hunters drew near.

As they chased along, ever larger masses of water generated under the glowing hooves of the stallions; they burst forth from the clouds and poured down on the wood.

On the billowing frothing waves of these floods the horses came riding along.
Fire raged in the heights, and the glowing boar set them ablaze again and again with ever new lightnings.
Red-glowing wolves followed the wild hunt, driving wind and weather ahead of them, and filled the roaring air with their howl.

Mani was terrified and recoiled from the wild host; but her brother comforted her.
“It is a feature of truth, that it is surrounded by a dull coat full of fallacies. The closer one gets to pure truth, the clearer one distinguishes the details of this deceitful magic coat.
These phenomena, that we will meet here for quite a while, always appear when one approaches pure truth from the regions of lesser truth - from untruth.
The deterring or frightening effect of the events in the environment arises only from an inner, own imperfection with which one approaches the eternal field of light of the perfect truth.

“Follow this practical rule and these illusions cannot harm you: you must continue your way unperturbed and without fear. If, however, the events assail you too hard then simply sit down, close your eyes and think of nothing; you will see that everything vanishes, and you can continue your way unhindered.

“But mind you of one thing: do not allow any of these illusions to involve you in any action - donit follow anyone, donit run away from anyone; donit try to take any influence anywhere, donit get entangled in the events you experience here - no matter how overwhelmingly they press on you: simply go your way or just sit down, close your eyes and think of nothing; then everything will disappear more pleasant than it arrived.”
