Second Installment

Hello Emma,

My name is Pluto, and I am a friend of T---, who attended DALS with you last April. T--- and I attended DALS for the first time together in 1995 and life hasn't been the same since. We both have been on a journey since that time, having had many powerful and transformational experiences with the knowledge that the DALS experience evokes. Both of us have facilitated workshops for BCAL and have come to the realization that the "real" experience lies somewhere beyond what is written in the workbooks and said in the workshop.

T--- and I, from time to time, challenge each other with the question "what's next?" I think that both of us intuitively know that we are destined to take the DALS experience to the next level, and this is a reminder for us to reconnect with that path. Lately, it seems to me that we are approaching a pivotal time, which will bring all of us (T---, myself, C---, among others) together for this purpose...sort of a mile marker, if you will. After my continual pestering about this, T---'s reaction was that I should email you. His intuition is that you are a part of this "soul group" which is forming.

I believe that our purpose will crystallize very soon, and we will be called to make this... whatever it is...manifest. So I feel compelled to invite you to try and answer this question as well...What's Next??

Sincerely,

Pluto

P.S. You may use the email address above or my home email address...or if you think I am completely insane, you can just ignore this!

Actually, Pluto IS completely insane, which is what I love about him. Since I'm at the Minneapolis airport right now, the analogy that comes to mind is, "flight DALS is preparing for take off. All ticketed passengers are asked to board at this time."

Pluto, I will be in Columbus, OH this week, but I will be checking e-mail and voice mail every evening.

You know, this conversation could be started by us, and spiraled (like in spiral dynamics, Pluto) out to different people. Maybe we need one focus question. Maybe the question is, "What's next," or maybe the question is, "What is this DALS thing REALLY about?" We already know that it is much bigger than accelerative learning. But if it's not just about learning, what is it?

Anyway, you two get to know each other. Enjoy.

T

Dear Pluto,
Thank you for your e-mail. You use the term "insane" like it's a bad thing! I actually prefer the term genius and that's what I believe we are. Yes, I believe I am part of this soul group that is forming and there could likely be others as well.

My experience of DALS was that it confirmed the path I am traveling and introduced me to some wise fellow travelers - T--- and C--- among them - and now you. What I experienced was that many areas of my life are coming together in a completely consistent fashion. I like the metaphor of "flight DALS" and others that bring to mind the sort of quantum expansion in awareness that is occurring at this time. I attribute it, in part, to DALS and to other experiences in my life – the persistent beckoning of the Universe to seek greater levels of awareness. I don't think that makes me insane, but it certainly makes me impatient. I agree that this may be a pivotal time, but don't know exactly what that means. To me, the question, "What's next?" could be answered by "Whatever we want (or choose, or manifest, or...)” I’m not sure THE question is "What is this DALS thing REALLY about?" either, although I think that is certainly a great question and I want to explore it. It is probably a good starting point.

I want to manifest applying the principles in all aspects of my life. For me, I think A big question is, "How can I/we take these principles as applied in my/our own life to teach, evoke, invite others to join in a transformational journey that will lead to greater awareness for us all?" Does that sound too grandiose, too head-in-the-clouds? I don't believe it is, but there may be a lot of questions that come before this one, such as...... "What's next?"

I've talked to T--- (and to a lesser extent C---) about our purpose in life and find those to be remarkably in alignment. Pluto, the cool thing for me is finding like-minded people who are actively striving to move to the next level of growth. I've often thought I must be insane because I see beyond what most people see and I see patterns others can't even conceive.

I look forward to more conversations with you and with all of us. Also, I look forward to hearing more from you about your path and what this all means to you.

My question back to you, Pluto.... and to T---.... is "What does this look like in the physical realm a year from now?"
