Lancelot’s lack of moral fiber speaks of the spiritual nature of human beings. I have had a spiritual mountaintop experience and then come down the mountain to repeat the mistakes of the past, instantly becoming as forlorn as before. It is this internal lack that speaks of our ongoing battle between our desires boundaries.
