His awakening: with no inkling beforehand he awoke within his skull and found it a sepulcher, came out, found a child wrapped in swaddling clothes, saw three witnesses, heard the storm-like wind, saw David who called him Father, was split in two from top to bottom, fused with the golden living light and rose like a fiery serpent, and the dove descended and smothered him in kisses.

Reasoning
Passage 526310 recounts, in order, the skull sepulcher, the child in swaddling clothes, the three witnesses, the wind, David calling him Father, the body split, the golden light and serpent, and the dove. The chronology dates the start 1959-07-20 (1274, 8963) and the dove 1963-01-01 (8975, 6068), with the whole sequence 1959-07-20..1963-01-01 (7322).

bound · possible
Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [526310] belong to telling lecture nids [17]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1972 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1972 is the MIN across telling lectures.
before 17 March 1972
bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1972 to before 1972-03-17.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 17 (certain delivery 1972-03-17); same premise, finer precision. The phase4 L6a bound on this event is `before 1972`, an envelope over delivery YEARS computed without reading text. Its premise is that the fact is true by the time it is told; on that same premise the DAY of the telling is a strictly better upper bound. Nothing is re-decided — the bound is stated to the precision the evidence always supported. The delivery claim for 1972-03-17 on nid 17 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.
