Half way through New Earth and have watched all the classes so far. I did send in some questions as the webcast was on. The next day I look at the message boards and do a lot of reading of other peoples' opinions and thoughts.

We all view the book in different ways. Some are concerned about is there a future when all we look at is the present. In chapter 5 the Pain Body he writes about all the negative baggage we carry around. I'm not sure that we lose that baggage completely as it apparently it is a growing process and our ages may be a factor in how and when we deal with the heavy load.

Once we come to terms or face the reality our outlook changes as well as our body language. We look younger, we feel vibrant. I realized this as when my memory of my past came back and what had happened not just to me as a child but also those adults who were helping and were murdered. Some were police officers and one was a U.S. Navy retired admiral, he was helping a friend in Toronto, Canada. He went undercover and was shot in the middle of the forehead because he wouldn't say who he really was. They knew he wasn't a real cardinal because the real one showed up one afternoon when he was there.

When I remember, I feel sad and don't know whether those two professors ever were really caught for what they really were doing. A release is writing it down and moving on with living once again.

The book New Earth maybe should be titled The New I Am.
