Street Survey #37
Based on a true story ... not mine, somebody else's.  A bright German woman called Maggie's story - whom i met randomly, non-sexually at a Nimbin campground in 2018. 

Street-survey #37
Excuse me sir … excuse me, my name’s Dulan Drift, i’m doing a survey on- 
 
 Fuck off dickhead 
 
 (crestfallen) Oohrrr …   (re-energized) Ah, excuse me madam how are you today? 
 
 (suspicious) Uhm …, good.  You? 
 
 I’m great, thanks!  My name is Dulan Drift!  If I could just get a minute of your time, I’m conducting a quick survey on- 
 
 Uhmmm,   not really,  Dulan.    I’m busy ...   I’m … 
 
 (look sad) Ohr, ok … i understand.  Thanks anyway for stopping 
 
 (taking pity, sighing) What’s it about? 
 
 (energized) It’s about Revelations … ! 
 
 Revelations ? What, like The Book of…?  Sorry, i- 
 No, no, it’s not like that - it’s not religious - just normal revelations . If you’ve not had one, sorry for wasting your time -   just a few quick questions.  Mainly one 
 
 I see …     so what was the question? 
 
 Sorry Madam, can i get a first name for my records - feel free to make one up 
 
 Ok, it’s Maggie 
 
 Thanks Maggie.  Respondents report that from a … (leaf thru notes)  lost state  there came this revelation   -  changed-my-life is a common testament 
 Did-   Can  you remember  how exactly you got from  ahr   … a mess of details   -    to   the  ah  Revelation bit?      Was it a process?     Did- 
 
 Hmm.  Ok, it happened … I don’t know …   something happened that was already happening.   I saw something that was already there.  Is that an option … ? 
 
 Fuck yeah!

 
 
 In my instance, it was … LSD assisted … i must admit.  Perhaps that’s not permitted in your survey? 
 
 Everything’s permitted in this survey Maggie!   It’s the unveiling i’m researching.  The mental-logistics of getting from A to B  - the revelation station 
 
 Ooh-kay, but i didn’t travel between them - more like i bi-associated A&B - in a situation that was ripe for their combination.  Kinda hacked it incidentally 
 

 
 I see. So …  it was a sudden transition? 
 
 Not  really  -  coz it comes with built-in familiarity.   It’s not an arrow-of-time thing   -  it’s an inkling inkled  - you’re at the finish line before the race begins 
 
 Cool.  So what was your revelation exactly, if you don’t mind me delving? I know i said one question … 
 
 Well … the central point was simple:   The Universe is a pattern  - a generated concept of its audience 
 I’m a tiny speck in that - but still share in the overall collective  -  everything’s connected 
 
 Oh, that’s nice.     But it could be said that’s like: everybody knows 
 
 Sure. That’s the point.  Everybody does know.  But we’re taught to ignore significance - even when it’s staring us in the face.  Guess that’s why it’s taught  
 
 Nice observation! 
 
 A revelation is an unforgetting as much as anything 
 
 Ohr.  So was there any psychological benefit in all of this? 
 
 Well, once you’re in, swimming in that pre-existence solution,  it’s like pick-a-problem -  the societal dross flakes retrospectively off.  A shape, ripples through you into place  
 
 Whoa 
 
 The ride, the vibe,  from there, is yeah … open sesame 
 
 Right on Maggie!  That’s really helpful.  Thanks for your participation! 
 
 Your welcome Dulan - have a nice day!
