You had breakfast and read the paper. Jadah
has been curled on your chest for a while. Carol is going to lunch at one
o’clock with three of her retired Blue Ash Elementary teacher friends who
volunteer at Bethesda North Hospital. You are curious as to the top three
Angelic Close Encounter rules you will choose. – Amorella
0835
hours. That’s funny, Amorella – ACE rules. The ace does rule in cards – luck of
the draw – all that. It is a reminder on the odds and an accidental hand – a
string of straights. That’s all I remember about card games. Poker, Hearts,
Bridge and Canasta are the games I remember but poker and hearts are the only
ones I remember playing. There were several games played originally when cards
were popular in the eighteenth century. I used to know them. Jonathon Swift highlighted
them in his poems, as did Alexander Pope. Gin Rummy might have been one and War
or allusions to it, another. I think it is time for a short nap.
The sun is trying to peek through the
clouds, boy, and you want nap time. – Amorella
0851
hours. I’m tired. Carol woke up early and wanted to have a conversation about
knee replacement. I obliged but then couldn’t go back to sleep.
1240
hours. I made minor grammatical corrections to the rules and have the top three
in bold.
Add and post. – Amorella
1242
hours. I have not chosen the order yet.
You have. The three are in the order your
heartansoulanmind would have them. – Amorella
I will reverse numbers 3 and 4 to make this correction.

Angelic
Close Encounter Rules
1. The
observer must recognise what and who she or he is from the top to through
bottom of her or his heartansoulanmind. Forgive yourself and stand with dignity
as the human being you are, nothing more, nothing less. Be damn well ready to
stand. This is not a time to grovel.
3. Let the
world go. The world is in its place; this place is not of the world and you are
as a momentary guest – be polite and respectful but also honest to the core; no
arrogance or malice – you are a being without body, heartansoulanmind only, be as clear as
your imperfect glass will allow. The observer can question the Angel with an
open, honest and even defiant heart.
4. No pretending. No falseness accepted; let all thoughts go concentrate on being what is left when no thoughts only consciousness exists.
5.
Do not think to apologize for being human. To think otherwise is a profound
arrogance. In such a profound experience ne cannot know whether she or he is
Innocent or not. Accept your full humanity with dignity; respect the Angel in
its Being. Humility will rise in the sincerity of this course. The Angel
‘knows’ the observer better than the observer is able to know her or his self.
6.
This is a Necessity. Will the heartansoulanmind to accept any human
failings and/or the most terrible of thoughts that rise in the moment. Will
these fear-gathering thoughts go away in peace.
7.
Being nonphysical, only heartansoulanmind, the observer’s nakedness is
overwhelming. The ‘light’ is the sense of being observed by Nothing imaginable
or by an Angel, not ‘light’ in the physical sense.
8.
The Angel comes to the observer not the other way around. Distance between the observer
and the Presence is understood, though logically the observer might assume she
or he is within the Angel or its Conditional Region and nothing else exists.
This appears to be a natural occurring spiritual experience.
9.
The Angelic ‘light’ shows that within its Reality; the observer does not appear to exist.
The Angelic light shines through the observer creating this effect. The
observer exists and does not exist at the same time in this Angelic setting.
This can be very disconcerting.
10.
Nothing can be done about this spiritual experience. The event happens. The
experience is beyond the observer’s general nature. This is a rule caused by being both
of/with Nature and in a ‘Beyond or Before’ setting both at once.

Afternoon.
You watched “King Henry VIII Court” on PBS while Carol was at lunch then you
both did several laps at the community center. Carol did six and you did five,
so you both walked over a half mile with you resting at the end of each lap. –
Amorella
1619
hours. You did not count my extra lap from the car and back.
That was not a lap, boy, that was a walk. –
Amorella
1620
hours. I dropped the rules into a clear Dead 9 and it adds up to 485 words so I
don’t really see us using the set; anyhow, I don’t know how you could anyway. I
was thinking of continuity of the rules as well as the practicality of doing
the work.
That leaves you some three hundred more
words to drop in. – Amorella
1626
hours. I will have to think of something.
How about some humor with Merlyn observing
Richard Greystone writing the rules in his dream and realizing that Richard
wrote them not himself. – Amorella
1629
hours. I can see the humor but I can’t imagine the reader would.
It could show that Merlyn’s in the same ‘here
and not here at the same time state that Richard found himself in being
addressed by an Angel. – Amorella
1631
hours. That’s too weird, Amorella.
It’s there if you want to use it. Post. -
Amorella
2119 hours. Snack supper and we watched last night’s “NCIS”
and “Person of Interest”. Carol is upstairs reading and I am not feeling too
productive; might as well head up soon too.
Let your fingers work Dead 9 first. –
Amorella
2124
hours. I’ve got nothing, Amorella, but I’ll stare at it for a minute or two.
2202
hours. I have it at 743 words. I will clean it up in the morning. Some shape
shifting of letters will have to do for some modern Thomas somewhere. I will
have the chapter online sometime tomorrow and be done with it for now. I am
ready to move on.
Post. – Amorella
2205
hours. I think this Dead 9 was completed in a place between consciousness and
unconsciousness, a place not unlike the Hinterland, a shoreline path between
two great seas.
