BACCHUS

A symbol of the Higher Self incarnate in the lower nature.

"To the ordinary reader the name of Bacchus suggests nothing more than revelry and drunkenness, but it is now well known, that amid all the abominations that attended his orgies, their grand design was professedly 'the purification of souls,' and that from the guilt and defilement of sin." - A. HISLOP, The Two Babylons, p. 22.
