Hi Rachel,
I'm a student at Royal Holloway University, London, and I just thought I'd write to say thank you for sharing your wonderful experiences on the Odin with us in this beautifully written and thoughtful blog.
Your experiences have been the source for a lot of my research on the Odin, and your personal touch and reflections have been infinitely more useful to me than any text book.
Thank you for sharing!

John --
Thank you. I have read about Royal Holloway. I love that the spirit of the Odin is touching you, and thus, them. May the touch and spirit and truth-in-bodies of the Odin spread from you further, like ripples in a net of light.
Eugenio's books kept me alive for three years. When I felt most desperate or isolated, I would read his writings. His search, his craving for the search, and his commitment to the search, comforted me.
Roberta Carrerri said, at the beginning of Odin Week, "We have invited you here to witness the Odin. So you know this has existed."
To witness.
You, too, are becoming a witness of the Odin. I encourage you, if it feels right, to attend an Odin Week and experience the transmission directly. The Odin will not be here forever; theatres, like performances, are ephemeral.
May you continue to follow your path faithfully, wherever it leads.
