Laura was exhausted, closed the door behind her and dropped backwards on the bed. It was not that pleasant, because the matress was quite hard, as was the bed itself. “Living like a nun.” That thought pleased her. If this was a monastery, she would be glad to call herself a nun. Apart from the lectures, the atmosphere was quite relaxed. People sitting on the grass talking or reading. Others meditated in front of a greenjade buddha, which, though it was only tree feet tall, dominated the gardenarea. It was disturbing to see others handling small computers and other strange apparatus on the tables, which stood mostly in the shade of the upper gallary. Everybody she saw, male or female, young or older, was dressed simple and behaved intravert. But there also was a strong sense of community and care. The lectures were quite different. The one by Jian, the so-called “crazy monk”, had overwhelmed her. On the one hand he tried to de-program them. Not by erasing wrong information and attitude, but by turning it around. The Om-principle he called it. Turn it round and round, a bit of information for instance, feel it, look at it and contemplate, before you come to any conclusion. Take your time and you will learn that much of the information was already present, just stored on the wrong place or ignored. On the other hand he spoke of other kinds of knowledge and of other ways to obtain it. Intuition was an important tool, but it had to be polished and trained, before you could use it as a tool, you can use and trust. After a tasteful, vegetarian meal, El took her to a classroom, filled with computers. The 20 places were mostly filled. In front of the class stood a tall man, dressed in a white laboratory-coat. He wore glasses and he had an attitude. Laura noted “positive scepsis” in her Ebook. He introduced himself as Master Klaas Piters. “My purpose is to make you look at facts in a different way. Reality is something we construct and we create facts to prove it. The earth is round for instance is such a fact. Well, it is not. Earth is a bit bigger at his belt. Earth is elliptic. When you look at earth from the gravity-perspective a completely different picture emerges. Earth looks like a decaing orange.” On the wall behing him, images appeared and Laura copied them to her Ebook. “Speaking of gravity. The moon, the only object in our solarsystem, that doesn't spin, is capable of lifting up enormous amounts of water to create just a normal flood." |
