NATHAN WRITES: This post demonstrates the vast multi-dimensional nature of reality. Combined with the statements made by Sri Harold about the astral libraries and how many people go there, read the same materials, and end up writing nearly identical books and stories, we can now grasp how silly it is for people like David Lane to waste all these years trying to prove the unprovable. DAVID LANE REPLIES: You know, Nathan, I was shown Paul Twitchell's own personal copy of THE PATH OF THE MASTERS by Bill Popham at the ECKANKAR INTERNATIONAL HEADQUARTERS in Menlo Park in 1979. I was reminded of this, by the way, by a former high ranking Administrator in Eckankar (who was also at the meeting). He further stated that Darwin Gross, the then living Eck Master, was quite upset with Popham for showing me Twitchell's personal copy. Now what do you think was more likely: Twitchell using THAT personal printed edition of PATH OF THE MASTERS (which he owned) or Twitchell going to an astral library to check out the "Source" Manuscript? If we opt for the former option, we have empirical evidence; if we opt for the latter option, we have astral speculation. By the way, I have noticed that Twitchell's plagiarism of Johnson seems to follow Johnson's typos and page progression as well, not to mention his properly cited quotations. Are they too in the "Astral" versions? I don't mind healthy discussions on this point................... Feel most free to give me your line of argumentation. signed: I didn't write the above; I got it from the Sahans-dal-Kanwal Blue Pearl Lending Library....... Great books on Shabd?
