Dear Albert,

"There is no new thing under the sun." Ecclesiastes 1, 9.

I have posted your e-mail on my site. What is unusual about it is that you are the only writer published there who seems to agree with my approach.

I was gratified to learn that you also have been exploring the software metaphor. Linguistic science appears to be similar to decoding software. You seem to equate mysticism and linguistic science when you write, "This ability to penetrate into the hidden meaning of languages is what the mystic has at his disposal."

I don't believe the non-theist writers published on my site would similarly regard mysticism as a form of science, rather they seem to be of the opinion that mysticism is an attempt to known that which they regard as "imaginary," and which I regard as the realm of neural software.

Is the transcript of your lecture on Mysticism available online? If so, I would like to link to it.

Peace,
