509:1 A similar state of high development is to be assumed for a great Celtic hero like Arthur. who were he to be re-born would (as is said to have been the case with King Mongan, the reincarnation of Finn) bring with him memory of his past: unlike the consciousness of the normal man, the consciousness of one of the Divine Ones is normally the subconsciousness, the consciousness of the individuality; and not the personal consciousness, which, like the personality, is non-permanent in itself. This further illustrates the Celtic theory of non-personal immortality.

Good Morning!
I have just been enjoying your site and am wondering how I might get a copy of the “Celtic Doctrine of Rebirth” article for my own information only.
I look forward to hearing from you.
