Dear Peter, <<I, like Rawn from whome I caught this from, am extremely contagious and should be approached with extreme caution >> Thanks for the warning :-) I know how to progress quickly now :-) ...You could have said it before :-( This reminds me of a science-fiction novel I read a few years ago ("Snow Crash") which postulated that *information* was a virus (lots of analogies in the way they spread themselves). So concepts and paradigms may only be vectors... Well, I must confess that the idea crossed my mind some time ago that there was a possible analogy between akasha as the source of the Elements, and the basic idea in Matrix. Those filmmakers take their inspiration somewhere, I guess. The same idea is expressed by Castanadea (the Eagle as the source of everything) and Monroe (the "M" field). Even Newbies can have fun : I myself start having glimpses "on the spot" during the day like "well - this shortcoming of mine may be due to a bad expression of Earth" or something of the sort. Is it a bad symptom, doctor ? :-) Cheers NB __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com
