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

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.

"Sariputra turned to the Buddha and said, 'Yes, Oh
Master, the end well justified the means and brought much
good.' "
The Lama Mingyar Dondup smiled at me as he said,
"You were left for three days outside the Chakpori, you
thought you were barred from entry, yet we were using
a test on you, a means which was justified in the end, for
you progress well."
I too am using "a means which will be justified in the
end". I am writing this, my true story-The Third Eye
and Doctor from Lhasa are absolutely true also-in order
that I may later continue with my aura work. So many
people have written to ask why I write that I give them
the explanation; I write the truth in order that Western
people may know that the Soul of man is greater than
these sputniks, or fizzling rockets. Eventually Man will go
to other planets by astral travel as I have done! But Wes-
tern Man will not so go while all he thinks of is self gain,
self advancement and never mind the rights of the other
fellow. I write the truth in order that I may
