Oooh! Line and verse, thank you!

I totally missed that sidebar, had no idea that Gabriel initiated sorcerers sometimes (apparently most Celestials have no idea of it either). They're still not humble and selfless, though. Even the idea of melding one's flame with the Godhead is a noble ideal, but I've seen such things in practice actually, and they're still fairly selfish. "I am a part of the Greatest Thing Ever" is still ego, it's just a bit less individually so.

Must think on this.
