E, I did read one of Ouspensky's books once (a long, long, time ago), and while the vision it contained was pretty bizarre, it was if nothing else notable for its astounding detail. It also contained a huge amount of "proof", in the circuitous (and generally fallacious) manner of the time. I've forgotten most of the contents, but I do recall that he devoted a large number of words to proving conclusively that time does not exist. But if you think he was an oddball, take a look at Gurdjieff. That one was really way off the deep end. Something about that period seems to have encouraged such individuals. I recall reading that Maitreya, who according to some SI posts has apparently been resurrected, was much talked about then. Not sure what he/she/it was supposed to have been, as I devote scant attention to such matters, but I'm a bit disappointed that whoever is pushing him now couldn't come up with something a bit more original. Have you ever noted the similarities between messiahs and BB stocks? Maybe we could put Janice to work on some of them... Steve PS Nice work on the sequels.
