There are more errors in Back to the Beginnings than I like. This is what happens when you don’t have anyone else to copyedit. Only a few of them affect meaning, fortunately. The most important of these is on p. 31, where “tree or pillar” should be “Tree or Well.”
Other important ones are:
p. 98, sixth paragraph – change “right” to “left.”
p. 103, tenth paragraph, fourth line – “centered” should be “balanced.”
p. 105, second paragraph – after “some in each one,” add “and pour their medhu over it.”
p. 116, eighth paragraph, fourth line – “centered” should be “balanced.”
p. 138. After “and I will follow it” add a new paragraph reading, “She then drinks the medhu.”
The rest are just typos, most of which can be figured out from context..
