    Dear Platt & Matt,

    Back after holidays and after catching up reading what y'all wrote in the
    meantime...

    Platt wrote 10 Jan 2003 10:05:07 -0500:
    'the challenge is to find such a person [viewing sitting on a hot stove as
    high quality] in experiential reality'.

    Do you think yogis meditating on a bed of nails could be found in
    experiential reality? Are there still Sioux Indians around in that country
    of yours that practice the sun dance, in which they drive hooks through the
    flesh on their breast and pull with their whole weight at a rope attached to
    these while running around a pole in the burning sun?
    There must be more 'religious' practices still around where denial of the
    biological self is experienced as social (intellectual?) high quality.

    With friendly greetings,

    Wim
