So proud are they of their insight into existence, they can’t help but accord it universal and dogmatic application. Hinduism is a great deal more supple and imaginative.

As a young man, Leopold made a conventional marriage to a fellow member of the nobility, Aurora von Rümelin, but he swiftly discovered that his sexual tastes could not be accommodated within the relationship.
