new research institute

[Tom]

With astral projection and the internet, I'd imagine that people living all over the world could help. I'd certainly be interested in helping too, even considering how far from Australia I'm from. Actually, how hard is it to move to Australia? Is it easy to bring a pet cat? Are jobs readily acquired? Not that I'd be moving just to participate in the research. I heard it is a nice place to live.

I'm in Sydney and would love to participate. I don't think it's very hard for Americans to come to Australia. The job situation is good not sure about the cat, it might have to be checked out or something first.

Hi Tom!

Australia is a great place to live!
Your cat would have to go through quanrantine...but I'm not sure how long that is. 3 or 6 months I think!

The cat would have a 180 day quarantine, but the first 150 days can be at its home in the country it is coming from. I live in a "category 4" country, which makes bringing a cat (or dog) more difficult than a category 1, 2, or 3. The 180 days starts with the first test for rabies. The last 30 days are in Australia in a quarantine facility. It is something like $12 per day to house a cat in a quarantine facility.

An international research program wouldn't be so bad, right? With astral projection and the internet it wouldn't be too difficult to coordinate research and share information.

I like to imagine that in the far-gone past, they had real mystical schools full of ancient books, and housing hundreds of hopeful metaphysical adepts. I t would the greatest thing in the world to be in a modern day version of that. It would be so nice to be in a place were your daily concerns all have to do with helping you and others move forward in your abilities (obviously there would still be relationship concerns and such, I just mean, no job, no school, no house you have to take care of, nothing but your inner journey and the day to day life around the center). The only thing wrong with it is that people have taken that idea, made it into some crazy cult thing and screwed up the whole idea.  Ben

Mr. Bruce,
I am interested in the research institute you are hoping to create, which you mentioned on the Art Bell show. What sort of people and skills are you looking for to be involved? I am very interested in seeing if I might particpate and be of help in some way. Thanks.
