This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

The latter is pretty good, his other books have similar themes I think.

Patrick White's _The Solid Mandala_ and possibly _Riders in the Chariot_
have quite well hidden kabbalistic themes IIRC; a quick web search only
brings up a discussion of Boehmian theology and _Voss_ -- he is a Nobel
laureate and so *high lit*, you know ;)
