So it is clear to what a degree the discovery— that is,
the revelation— of a sacred space possesses existential
value for religious man; for nothing can begin, nothing
can be done, without a previous orientation— and any
orientation implies acquiring a fixed point. It is for this
reason that religious man has always sought to fix his
abode at the “center of the world.” If the world is to he
lived in, it must be founded— and no world can come to
birth in the chaos of the homogeneity and relativity of
profane space.
