Richard Ireland leaves tomorrow. He has three demonstrations (or shows as he inadvertently called them) Saturday and will fly to Phoenix on Sunday.  We discussed clairvoyance today and have come to certain conclusions.  The ability in many psychics seems to be devoid of spiritual endeavour.  Peter Hurkos book, Psychic, gives evidence to this.  Kudabox states that nothing higher exists, only certain forms of black or white magic. It appears that this is only an opening of a certain mental ability.  These powers come as a natural development in sadhana but as we discussed with Dimitri and Ericka are not ends in any way and should not be commercialized or used other than indicated by the Higher Guidance.
 
Dimitri and Ericka left yesterday for three months in Europe and on their return will live in Stanford, California.  We have developed a strong inner relationship during the past six years and I am grateful to Mother for bringing us together.  Eckhard Karnash and his friend Hans came to the restaurant Thursday evening.  He saw Dr. Irelands performance but as was expected, had no comment.
 
Chinmoy called today and told us how to go about getting a visa.  He is building a large group of disciples, many Puerto Ricans especially, and is given great assistance by Sadhana whom he has renamed Alo.  
 
We visited Sam and Eric last week and brought Richard Ireland along.  That evening Richard spoke about his going into trances and having the great masters speak through him. He spoke of visits by K.H., Blavatsky, Sri Aurobindo and John Kelly.  We also had a very humorous demonstration of Richards gift that same evening.  We had dinner in Chinatown and stopped at the Catholic Churchs bazaar on Mott Street.  (There is a note inserted here  June 18, 1967  I dont recall what this indicates)  Richard and Anne wanted to play a wheel of chance and I agreed on the condition that Richard cheated by using his precognition to determine the number.  The odds against winning were fantastic.  There were at least 30 numbers and seven or so digits (spokes) between each number.  One section between two of the spokes was painted red and the arrow had to land on this.  As the lady was about to spin the wheel Richard said that he would like the dog on the second shelf.  She looked at him strangely and spun the wheel.  Richard put his money on #17 and Anne and I bet other numbers.  I felt immediately that number 17 would come up but Richard would not let me bet with him.  As I expected, #17 hit exactly on the red line and we walked away with the prize, a huge dog we called Sum Luck.
