Ernst.

If not perfectly the same, then at least some approximate one.

Falk.

An approximate concept would be useless or dangerous here. Useless, if it does not contain enough; and dangerous, if it contained even the slightest bit too much. Falk emphasizes precision; in Masonic philosophy, a partial truth can lead to profound misunderstanding of the "Work."

Ernst.
