The examples of your scientifically interested topics cause amazement. This is inherent in a scientist who has a genuine interest in things and the world and the universe. The more you go into detail, the more astonishing reality becomes, and my involvement with science has made me realise how little I know. The wonderment of life itself is the result. Here, at last, I approach where I can forget my self and my identities, experience all the letting go of judgement and morality in the presence of the moment. The image of the elephant, a strange creature of this earth, what, if not astonishment and joy, can it trigger in the wide-open mind?

I wanted to give you a long and detailed answer, but I will leave it at that for today. In the Easter that lies ahead, I feel the tradition of Good Friday and wish you a blessed time from the bottom of my heart. I may get back to you soon and I'm sure I'll respond to one or two things you've said.

Kindest greetings from me
