Dear Mark,

> Don't make me tell you twice...

Not if you can do it seven times.

 

Mark, I've got you marked all over me, even have you copy righted right over

my third eye. People ask me: "Are you Hindu or something, what is that on

your forehead?" I say: "Oh, that Mark?... Then I wink my first eye, then my

second one , then my third eye." People walk away smiling saying: "Yep,

marked for life, for sure, poor fellow." Hahaha they don't know ... but you

and I do....!

 

Now about that boat, I don't know where you got it from, don't know where

you are going with it.

I can steer you to three ferries though... 'hina', 'maha' and 'vajra'...

translated as 'hither', 'thither' and 'wither'. All three ferries have to

first cross a large lotus pond called 'smither', pretty, muddy and...tricky,

one can get tangled up pretty badly.

When your ferry goes to smithereens, you actually have it made. Most people

don't know that, but noticing from you last series of emails, you are

already smothered enough so I can tell you.

When you get entangled in the lotus growths, (a bit of bardo guidance here)

don't bother to untangle yourself, the stems can help you breath, like a

snorkel, when you submerge... And when you stop breathing and turn to mud,

a very nice lotus bloom will emerge from your 7th chakra.

No, no roses for you... number 7

 

Mark I love you too, Wim

 

PS.

About that number "7",

I thought that "7" was my number, but you know what, I will attribute it to

you.

Actually, I bet you 7 to 1 that we can share that one....

Seven is our lucky Mark.
