Hi Robert,

Thank you for your friendly "welcome to the club". I think we all want the same. We want to know the truth, or at least we like to enhance our understanding towards that what surrounds us and how all things work together in order to satisfy our intellect. We are no fools. Before we look at a proposal, an idea, it must make sense. I think this view is what draws us together. Allow me to introduce myself and tell you where I come from, what has been my life, and why I like to join your group assembled at your forum in the quest of "a Theory of Everything", in order to propose and defend my theory of a "unified Mind".

I was born in Berlin, Germany, on June 21, 1929, the longest day of the year. To my mother, I was the "sunshine boy" in her life. As a young child, I saw the Russian Army move into Berlin, putting an end to a senseless war. I saw dead people in the streets, women being raped. Electronics were my choice and fascination at the time. I build a few radios as long as the market was there and industry had not picked up since the Russians had collected all the radios when they came - for security reasons - I am sure.

From there on, after things had stabilized, I had a pleasant high school time because there were nice kids, and I took my time to finish my studies in Electrical Engineering in Aachen when I was 30 years of age. (My father, a business man, had always been very supportive of me.) After working for Telefunken in Berlin for a couple of years playing with single side-band transmitters, I took the big step and immigrated to Canada with a job lined up already at the R&D Laboratories at Northern Electric in Ottawa, engaged in microwave design. Now I was in the position to have a family on my own and live in peace and trust away from the battle grounds of the past. This, to me, was the purpose in life. In quick order I had a wife and 3 kids, with Heidi, now my wife, nagging me to join the Baptist Church to become "organized" and "be normal", instead of nurturing Sunday morning hang-overs, wasting valuable family time.

Inviting Jesus into your life, in effect giving up and handing over control, this is pretty tough. What is if you don't like it? The question rises: Can you go back to where you were before and cancel the whole thing, or are you "caught forever" in somebody else's clutches, making all the wrong moves? They say to give up control and pass it on, you make a deal with Jesus, in person, straight, no middle-man, and You may ask whatever you want, no kidding, and it will be given to you. Wow! Can you imagine, like getting a free wish for letting the genie out off the bottle in a fairy tale setting? So, what is it that I want?

I had everything I wanted, or could possibly think of. I had invested my mother's money wisely to buy an apartment block which really took off, then I bought 2 miles of gorgeous waterfront property along Okanagan Lake in "Beautiful British Columbia". All plans were ready for a recreational development including a resort, stunning homes, a recreational vehicle park laid out in perfection, and finally, to top it all, a meditation retreat thought for spiritual enhancement and relaxation. (I had joined TM before. Transcendence was the attraction, and the discovery that there are different states in Consciousness.) Then all went bust, just to show me who is boss, and whom I had trusted with looking after my life, my family, and all my affairs. Still, I never suffered in physical terms. I always had a roof over my head.

What did I asked for? "Wisdom" of all things. I should have known better. Do I want to make a fool out of myself and start believing in spooky things, apart from one's own solid training in no-nonsense engineering? I had my reservations. I thought this was a trick, a make-belief, like selling instant sin-forgiveness certificates or stunts like that. Did I get it? What: "wisdom"? Well, in my own mind, I have no questions anymore. All I ever wanted to know has been answered through my own writings. All these things have been "revealed" to me. I asked for it, so I should not come now and bitch and complain. How does it work?

There are 2 voices in each of us: the "loud-mouthed ego" and the little one, one's "inner voice". At the beginning, this "inner voice" is very faint, and one has to become very quiet in order to hear it; but it appears to have contact with ones own "higher self", the one who should know better. Today, I have a loving wife and lead a happy and care-free life. Heidi and I have been studying and living the "Course in Miracles" which Heidi has come home with one day more than 30 years ago. All my wisdom derives from there, and all my questions have been answered how to put matter and life and memory together in one simple theory. So, what do you think? Am I preaching, or is there room to discuss Creation and Its physical and spiritual Aspects in a 5-dimensional environment?
