Dear Susan,

Just a quick reply,
Yes, yes and thank you!

My place once was a "shakti / kundalini" retreat at some point in the past,
called it "CentranCe...". (The word in the logo was written in a circle, the
beginning eating the end so to say. A play on the words: centre, entrance,
trance, transcend and maybe... my one "cent" worth :-). I shut it down just
a few weeks before the Jonestown massacre happened, (remember?). I had
received a vision from my 4.5 (?) year old son as well as a visionary visit
from, what we now may call, an ascended master, to shut it down. There had
also been attempts on my life by two of the retreatants.
What do I do now?
A very intensive one-on-one. Total peri-natal support and comprehensive life
restructuring. Real life, no schemes. One person at a time... And yes, still
attempts on my life... But now there is no fear... nor danger...
Neat how that goes...!

Sometimes I wonder if I am alive or after-life?
Did you know that there is no way to tell, really?
:-)
Ah concepts!!!!!!

Love, Wim
