This is an account of my search for the relevance of the arts in nature and in human existence. It deals particularly with an experience that is derived from communion with beauty and harmonious order through all the arts and in the wonders of the natural world. its particular significance lies in the fact that whereas other levels of enjoyment in the arts can be accounted for by accepted beliefs, this 'high' or 'peak' experience defies explanation because it its intensity and total otherness from ordinary human experience.
