Excerpt from Krzysztof Gibaszewski's novel In Search of That Something:
"The guy was in a bright room with no walls, ceiling or floor. He was surrounded by blue. [...] In front of him he saw four figures, dressed in brown, invisible habits with large black hoods pulled up, from under which no face could be seen. The figures blended with their surroundings into a single blue. They were members of the tribunal. Between them and Guy, a little to the left, stood the accuser, who was making a speech. [...]
- From the footage we saw, it appears that the accused rejected the favor he received. And he received a lot. Enlightenment, a calling to great things. He could have been a prophet, but he abandoned it. He chose mammon and carnality. For this, there can be only one punishment I request. Life. I demand for him the punishment of doumarcia. Life until he dies. [Let him live among people who will never understand him [...]. That will be his punishment. Because he knew, and did not pass on the knowledge, did not expand it or use it for anything good. For this he should once again be banished from paradise. For the original sin of omission."
