Damodar and "One Place"

Daniel,

Thanks. Rather "one" central place, than "the" one. 

And -- it is much more visited astrally than physically; and often without brain-consciousness after the visit ;  something which turns the 'geographical equation' suddenly subtle... if not unimportant, like physical portraits. 

Left side brain can never really grasp things occult.  

That's the reason, by the way, why they are called "occult". Cannot be touched, cannot be named, cannot be seen -- hence, occult. 


Regards,  Carlos.
