Mark 13 - 'See these great buildings?' 'Yes, I see them, but not one stone of them will be left standing on another', with the wars and rumours of wars, the sun darkened and the moon failing, and the lesson of the fig tree. Neville reads none of it of the visible world: the buildings are the structures of the mind. We all live by structures built by other men; no one goes through a university without building them in order to get a degree, passing his examinations on a memory test based on ideas of men who preceded him. Not one of these, from Plato down, is without some truth, and not one is completely true. All the different teachings of the world are Babel, which means confusion. They come down not collectively but one by one in the mind of the individual, and only what is built from a vision survives - the temple not built with hands. So bring the buildings down by putting something in their place.

It has nothing to do with the visible world, but all to do with the structure of the mind. Some structures of the mind stand for centuries, but they will finally come down – not collectively, but one by one in the mind of the individual.
