Counterpoint to Reality

How would you like to say you have seen a woman transform into a wolf and attempt to tear out your throat right in front of your eyes? How would you like to say one night that you had been met in the garden at 2 a.m. by twelve foot high demons and dragons, waiting to devour you, while at your feet were thousands of swirling scorpions? How would you like to say you saw an entity, an unexplained being, leap from the mouth of a woman during an exorcism performed in Mexico? How would you like to say you were initiated, along with a thousand other people, into a secret organization in Chartres Cathedral at the stroke of midnight? How would you like to say you have sat in the presence of crystal skulls of such power that it left you totally humbled and an emotional wreck? How would you like to enter a room filled with people, say at a local gathering and consciously, but secretly, change the events taking place to result in something totally unexpected? These and many other strange happenings have been part of my life. When pieced together they trace a tale of the unknown that leads to profound discoveries concerning who and what we are, why we are here, and how we can develop toward the next level of consciousness needed to survive into the future on this plane.
