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.
