Trimming off the rest of this post is unnecessary.
I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse.
I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in
uncorrelated tabulations and then deleting the emails.
(I know this loses interesting correlation data, but if
resondents want anonymity it's hard to avoid.)
I know that this anonymity promise depends on trust and that
you have no particular reason to trust me. Someday, I hope.
I will post results Saturday.

feet was immersed in darkness. Somewhere a
yak began to bellow as if sensing that a new day would soon
be upon us. Five in the morning Tibetan time. About
eleven o'clock by the time in England, I judged. Gently I
nudged the old lama who was dozing lightly. "Time we
went into the astral!" I said.
"It will be the last time for me," he replied, "for I shall
not return to my body again."

Slowly, not hurrying at all, we again entered the astral
state. Leisurely we arrived at that house in England. The
man lay there sleeping, tossing a little, on his face there was
a look of extreme discontent. His astral form was encom-
passing his physical body with no sign yet of separation.
"Are you coming?" I asked, in the astral. "Are you
coming," repeated the old lama. Slowly, almost reluc-
tantly, the man's astral form rose above his physical body.
Rose, and floated above it, reversed, head of astral to feet
of physical, as one does. The astral body swayed and
bobbed. The sudden roar of a speeding train nearly sent it
back into the physical, Then, as though a sudden decision
had been reached, his astral form tilted, and stood before
us. Rubbing his eyes as one awakening from sleep, he gazed
upon us.
"So you want to leave your body?" I asked.
"I do, I hate it here!" he exclaimed vehemently.
We stood looking at each other. He seemed to me to be
a much misunderstood man. A man who, in England, would
not make his mark on life, but who in Tibet would have his
chance. He laughed sourly, "So you want my body! Well,
you will find your mistake. It does not matter what you
know in England, it is who you know that matters. I cannot

looking for salvation and finding it not (Isaiah).
Calling of the Gentiles by Jesus Christ. Is. 52:15; 55:5; 60, etc. Ps. 81.
Hosea 1:9: "Ye are not my people, and I will not be your God, when ye are
multiplied after the dispersion. In the places where it was said, Ye are not
my people, I will call them my people."
728. It was not lawful to sacrifice outside of Jerusalem, which was the
place that the Lord had chosen, nor even to eat the tithes elsewhere. Deut.
12:5, etc.; Deut. 14:23, etc.; 15:20; 16:2, 7, 11, 15.
Hosea foretold that they should be without a king, without a prince, without
a sacrifice, and without an idol; and this prophecy is now fulfilled, as
they cannot make a lawful sacrifice out of Jerusalem.
729. Predictions.--It was foretold that, in the time of the Messiah, He
should come to establish a new covenant, which should make them forget the
escape from Egypt (Jer. 23:5; Is. 43:10); that He should place His law not
in externals, but in the heart; that He should put His fear, which had only
been from without, in the midst of the heart. Who does not see the Christian
law in all this?
730.... That then idolatry would be overthrown; that this Messiah would cast
down all idols and bring men into the worship of the true God.
That the temples of the idols would be cast down, and that among all nations
and in all places of the earth. He would be offered a pure sacrifice, not of
beasts.
That He would be king of the Jews and Gentiles. And we see this king of the
Jews and Gentiles oppressed by both, who conspire His death; and ruler
