 Well hi there Jim - live conversation at last eh.

Well, in response to your previous messages, and the signed name 
Merlin, I saw in my mind's eye a bearded patriarch shaking his 
crooked stick at the sky, and thought Looks like fun!. 
 
 Interesting point is it not.  Yes, I have implications of other 
levels of some kind of incarnate forms existing elsewhere - but ONLY 
implications; and implications do not interest me too much, I HAVE 
to know things from first hand experience - the rest is hearsay to 
me (even if it is true). And I am living this life here and now, not 
another one or somebody else's.  The stuff is here and now. 

Yes. Agreed. I asked the question to quickly find out more about the 
structure of this gnosis experience of yours- recognizing of course 
its dynamic and ever evolving nature, as the essence of life 
itself... 

 Fine if you have not got the time or interest to read it all :- )  
There are 6.4 billion people here so they tell me (I have not 
counted them myself) but a tiny percentage of a hell of a lot is a 
tidy bit :-  It gets read a lot every day, and it goes down well 
so they tell me.

Sounds good- once I read some, I *got* the rest, and I tend to read 
anything of substantial length (tens of pages, upward) like that 
anyway. Get the signature, essence, or seed of consciousness of the 
writing and then allow it to bloom in my mind.
 
 Sorry to hear that you have no interest in the world to come (or 
maybe I misunderstood you). But what you and I do today (all of us) 
is the foundation of tomorrow and the kids that will come here. Let 
us make a better world for them to come into than the one we found 
sixty years ago eh. Writing helps, I know. I did not think it would 
when they asked me to do it years ago - but it does make a 
difference. So I was wrong and they were right. We live and learn 
eh. Is it not a waste not to pass on our hard earned experience of 
life - and for FREE to the next generations. I think it is 
important. Experience is not JUST for ourselves.

Again, agreed. I should have said I was not interested in posterity 
in and of itself; 'take care of the present and the future takes 
care of itself'. I have a daughter and always marvel at the quality 
of her soul.

I enjoy writing also, though far briefer than book length. My 
favorite form of communication is through my art, because although a 
wholeness, a complete thought, is created at the conclusion of a 
piece, I am never quite sure what it means, except that the meaning 
is immediate. 


 
 Dick.

   Hi Dick,
 
   Not too interested in posterity, or bleating for that 
   matter...Nonetheless, I read some of what is on your website- 
and 
   find a lot on your website in common with my basic perspective; 
here 
   to BE and live a life both personal and transcendent. (enjoyed 
the 
   few poems I read also).
 
   So perhaps I am just too lazy or disinterested in books in 
general 
   to plow through all of what you've written, and for that I 
apologize 
   in advance, but my question is, given you explanations of the 
   phenomenal world, and the strange interface we enjoy in it, do 
you 
   find evidence of more evolved beings, such as gods and angels, 
or is 
   it purely a world of us BEING?
 
   Thanks

Good luck with your art there Jim - 
the world needs it. Like music it can inspire the mind, elevate the soul and 
expand consciousness. Good stuff.

And good luck with the kido there - 
yeah I love em too, I have five of my own their ages are 48 44 28 25 and 
15 - - four girls and a boy - and a few grandchildren too with more to 
come no doubt. I love kids. We also fostered a coloured girl from the 
slums of Bristol some years back, and she is now a grown woman and doing oh so 
well. So life has been kind to me - 67 and never yet been ill or even had 
a headache as yet - and yet oh so busy - probably too busy to get ill - and I 
have been smoking since I was four - but ssshhh, I am not recommending it :- 


Dick.
