up the glands, guts, and gusto

seems to this reader that the
value of a magazine, such as
The ABERREE, is in no small
measure the response and response-ability of the readers
as participants in this spectator age.

couldn't more completely disagree. 'Time' is relative.
'Process' is relative. 'Becoming' is relative'. 'Unfoldment' is relative. And the
relative is mutable, subject
to the individual's will which
is the individual 's actions.
Eventuality is 'speeded up' by
the consideration of things 'at
hand' as events. Full consideration of this last sentence
will be (or can be) of great
practical value to the individual. When we stay mentally
centered in being, 'becoming'
and 'process', 'unfolding' all
contract and vanish back into
their native nothingness. Then
we accept, permit, recognize,
and realize that 'ultimate',
'goals', etc., always have
been -- being with the sense of
hereness , no wness , and -' I am
that I am'. 'To be or not to
be' is the big lie...

"The FDA has no power to
concern itself with religion,
as such. It does concern itself
with sharpsters peddling weird
mislabeled contraptions, fluids, compounds, some toxic,
some dangerous. The FDA is understaffed, inadequately financed; does not operate at the
behest of organized medicine.

"George M. Lamsa, an Aramaic scholar, has translated
the Christian Bible from its
original language, the Aramaic.
The Aramaic Bibles have always
been used in that area, and
the original meanings and localities are understood. Consequently, we, who have translated from the Aramaic, to
Greek, to Latin, to English (I
should say King James English)
are the baffled recipients.
"In the Near East, Christians may divorce and remarry

Lamsa) Jesus never really forbid this. He referred to an

An entity seems to be actual
or real in its own phenomenal
space and virtual in the other
space. The virtual part is analogous to a stereographic image, but has at least some
mass. It seems to be a kind of
skilful trick of the sort, 'I
can't tell you but I can show
you'. (ED. NOTE -- ? ? ? ? ? ?)"Have now encountered three
classes of Apselians: (1) The
beatnik variety; (2) a mediocre variety -- 'square', humdrum, and dull as ditchwater,
about whom you'd meet on a
downtown street or at a church
or PTA meeting; (3) a psychotic and/or mentally retarded
variety, who are psychiatrically ill in various ways. The
translocation is a sort of
fusing of two images, much like
learning to see a three-dimensional block instead of two
flat pictures when looking in
a stereoscope. The transfer
from P(l) to P(2) and back appears to be instantaneous, so
probably no physical transfer
of mass takes place. The particular phenomenal space of
'my' entities looks very much
like this one except that it
seems a little poorer and dirtier, much in the way an older
city looks dirtier and poorer
than a newer city. Apparently,
only the beatnik entities are
good looking of these three
varieties. The mediocre ones
range from plain to homely ;
the psychos (what few I 'saw' )
are real messes." -- Fred Hand,
