Hi Morten,

You can challenge me or my views all you want. But my views and 
research are really a cover for what I have uncovered through 
spiritual and meditation revelations. These will be and have been 
given out in bits and pieces on my website. Now, the truth about 
this is buried in there somewhere. It is hidden in part because I 
hid it. But I have the okay to begin giving out this in detail and 
in no uncertain terms.

My work is cyclical and contains the truth based on lifetimes and 
thousands of years of destiny and not just the so-called now. We 
will never agree until and unless you come up to where I am and I 
will show you on the inside what the truth is about much of this--or 
as much of it as you can stand. The bottom line is the connection 
that we all have is more than we can bear.

Namaste

Netemara
