A Gaean adept tells the usurper, "'You were serving Gaea.'" (p. 431) He replies, "'I was serving myself.'" (p. 432) This is self-realization, transcending Gaeanity.
In Shadowlands, when CS Lewis was embittered by his bereavement, a clergyman told him, "This is your grief speaking." Lewis replied, "What was speaking before? My complacency?" Again, self-realization, this time transcending Christianity.
Moments of truth in works of fiction.
