LLAM:  "Yawn evil forces yawn?"  What kind of title is that?

ROY:  It annoys me when something or someone living in fear bothers us.  I thought we were transparent to all of that.

LLAM:  Generally we are, but your words are the give-away.  You said 'transparent,' not 'invisible.'

ROY:  Oh yeh.  Bit of a technical difference there I suppose.

LLAM:  We're very well protected, after all we have Kebloth, Kath and the rest watching over us, but there will always be the occasional guerrilla action against us.  Or gorilla action.

ROY:  You made a joke!

LLAM:  I try!

ROY:  I suppose I'm forgetting my roots, but why would something evil seek to pull us down?

LLAM:  You are indeed forgetting your roots.  Are you that far way from living in constant terror and anger?

ROY:  Perhaps I am.  (looks thoughtful)

LLAM:  And?

ROY:  I recall some things very well, actually.  I couldn't imagine genuine altruism, or people acting without selfishness or fear.  That wasn't so long ago.

LLAM:  You've changed some, yes.

ROY:  One would kind of hope!  Man, it was so hard at first......  I clearly remember walking to the market one morning and realizing that the world is not a threat.  That was about five years ago.

LLAM:  We had just arrived here, I remember that day also.  I had thought, that must have been the end of a very long process for you.

ROY:  The only time I ever recall living without any fear was one day - one day, mind you - when I was seven.  My mother was happily occupied two houses away with a neighbor for three or four hours.  I was in the backyard playing with my dog and building a magical castle in the birdbath.  By some miracle she forgot about me.

LLAM:  The memory is giving you a warm glow.  Literally!

ROY:  I'm glowing to you?

LLAM:  Yes, and I do believe that it's the sunlight from that day stored within you.

ROY:  Am I supposed to say "huh?" here?

LLAM:  (smiles)  Normally you might!

ROY:  I got the explanation of what you meant with what you told me.  You're saying that all of our days are stored within us?

LLAM:  As well as a cellular system can store information, yes.

ROY:  You mean, it's not a perfect system.

LLAM:  No, not really.  It's kind of like a Microsoft operating system, it does what it wants, not what you want.  And it does this in a physical system that is always replacing its components.  It actually works remarkably well, I must say.

ROY:  What about you?  You've no physical body by normal definitions, at best you're a group of photons, right?

LLAM:  Perhaps a combination of photons and neutrinos would be a better description, although not a comprehensive one.  That is, if Dr. Harms doesn't mind me appropriating his terminology.

ROY:  Why the neutrinos?

LLAM:  Structured things need a framework is the best that I can say here.  This is actually something akin to the subject with which we began our conversation.  You've said any number of times that we appear as little balls of light when you truly perceive us.

ROY:  Sara has said the same thing.

LLAM:  It's a convenience which is modulated by perception.  I "see" myself in the same way, but I know that my........photons, as it were, are clustered around a framework of neutrinos.  Normally, can you see your skeleton?

ROY:  No.

LLAM  I had a concern you might start talking about how you were injured and your bones were sticking out through your flesh.

ROY:  Not yet.

LLAM:  If you wished, you could see your skeleton, or your internal organs.  But you have no need, so you do not.

ROY:  I have no desire, either.  But you're describing how certain kinds of "healers" operate, in that they can see a person's insides.

LLAM:  Like telepathy, I guess, it takes a bit of practice.  And inclination.  But see here, in saying that I'm composed of photons and neutrinos, this is just one more convenience by which we might understand ourselves.  It is better taken as an analogy.  Now, in keeping with this analogy, let us say that a person who lives more by love than fear, well, let us say that that person's "body" is composed of photons.  A person who lives largely in fear is composed largely of neutrinos.

ROY:  I suppose that this is the origin of equating "light" with "good" and "darkness" with "evil."  I always thought that human language determined things like that.

LLAM:  As an operating principle, it does.  But then if you think about it, what determines language?

ROY:  Okay, I see, I've been saying that language is a kind of a priori "given," that nothing precedes it.  Hmm! 

LLAM:  Well, everything has a father.

ROY:  I don't believe that you're quoting Picasso at me!

LLAM:  You have a habit of quoting Cicero at me.  (smiles)

ROY:  So, if we are occasionally visible to the forces of fear in the world it is because we share the same basic make-up on this level?

LLAM:  Yes, inasmuch as we share this photon - neutrino structure.
