An
essential task and opportunity toward ameliorating the
15%/85% divide: Education is a crucially important
avenue for dissolving this great concern for all of
us. What's available in one side of the equation needs
to be made accessible across the whole continuum of
Humanity.

My
focus now is to discover the right mutual attractors, especially
like you, whose vitally important works need to be translated from
the professional / academic realm to that of the rest of us.
I honestly believe this is crucial to ridding ourselves of
the 15/85 divide. And
these ideas need to be seen in a wider context of similar ideas,
which lends its own credibility to your work.
Reading and integrating your revolutionary ideas and works makes me
keenly aware of what seems to be one of the underlying drives of why
I do what I do; it is part of 'my calling'. And that is to
bring vital information, wisdom, methods found in one sector of
society into the awareness of another sector that might not
ordinarily be disposed to look where it is to be found. Also,
bringing one way of looking at something into proximity with other
views, 'languagings', relevant data -- maybe that's like
revitalizing, enriching the soil for future crops, or adding to the
seed stock so it stays strong.
I want to bring your conceptual brilliance from the privileged
ethereal heights of global institutions and academia into the hearts
of 'the rest of us.' To some degree that could be said to
translate roughly with the 15/85% divide. And I need both your
permission and help to do that.
Rhea
A. White's Exceptional Human Experience Paradigm
For example, during the early years of what led to this web project,
I was already looking to create an inclusive framework in which to
bring together all that I was learning from all these many fields
[religion, spirituality, parapsychology, medicine, biology, physics,
the field of personal human experiences .. etc] in some way that
made it more accessible as a whole subject or field. There
were certain structures already available that did not suit those
intentions. In the main, people have turned to religion and
parapsychology in order to explore much of what I was then immersed
in, but each of these came with delimiting, bothersome strings of
assumptions attached, and the languaging in both cases could also be
problematic.
Eventually, I was led to the work of Rhea A.
White, which saved me
from the felt need to reinvent the wheel. But it quickly
became apparent that her work as well, as it was, would not be
accessible to most people because, let's face it, Rhea was long
accustomed to addressing parapsychologists, who, like people in
other professional fields had developed a kind of vernacular that
may as well be Greek or higher mathematics or something you'd read
in a proctology journal. And by far, most people who are not
parapsychologists are not going to read
it.
Sometimes I felt nearly rapturous reading her works, because there
is a kind of power of knowing from direct Experience
["exceptional human experience" / EHE] that, insofar
as one is changed by their EHE, as she clearly was by her near-death
experience, it really infiltrates all hir thinking, feeling, and
expressing. And here was this stunning wisdom, knowing,
maturity, beauty, brilliance, straight out of the higher worlds
where such a soul would be at home without a bodysuit life!
But in the lingo of parapsychologists. It softened over the
years, because after she retired from her professional life, she was
more and more in touch with 'just us folks' who had had these
Experiences. But by this time her
terminology was quite solid; she now had a well developed and
tested "exceptional human experience paradigm." It
would be up to others to bring this into easier accessibility of
people who would not otherwise have a clue about her insights and
the great gifting of this remarkable woman, this "project
of transcendence." Rhea, by the way, became a great
mentoring influence for me over the years.
It's
RAW, but there's more! ...
which
I feel is one of the most important pages
of
this presentation to you.
