Reverend Verna Talbot, now what the heck, how is she a reverend, this odd but familiar women, mother of my new found friend Johnny, fellow printer trainee, at the preview house on the strip.

The Preview House was that annoying place that showed first run movies, and then quizzed you to death after it was over.

The book on Verna’s shelf read “telephone between worlds” .I to this very day have a copy of that preliminary book on telepathy.

The intense waves from hundreds of acid trips with the attending flashbacks left me in a state of continuous nirvana, my mind so free of clutter, worked as if I was in zazen 24/7.

Wasn’t gone long from my printing job and now had rented a bungalow cottage in a arcade off the strip directly next door and abutting the famous “Chateau Marmont”,and opened “Timeless Occult” the first occult shop bookstore featuring these themes, along with readers like Charlie the palmist, Kit Wilkins who later became a fixture at the bodhi tree and of course myself who did 20 to 30 tarot readings per day.

Starting my first séance service was exciting and due to the synchnocrisity of Verna and me, obviously from the same pod, here we are sitting in the front room of this lovely mansion, I’ve collected the tariff and Verna goes into her thing.

Whoa ,there she goes, spinning into a whirling dervish ,full on spins right into the glass coffee table then right thru, whew god there goes the profit and then some, as my business spine stiffens, then magically a mans voice comes thru her directed to a overweight nice blond woman to my right. OH my god she bleats that’s my dads voice, whereupon some message comes through that she acknowledges is from her dad, this continued around what was left of the table, for an hour or so.

As we finished up, I mentioned the table, staying true to a only good karma biz ethic, the host was so blown away that she blew it off and said we’ll do it again

As Verna and I drove off, splitting the small fortune we had earned, I wondered for the first time in earnest, this is all very real why doesn’t the world  know about this.

Enter the true evil, religion, followed by its scavenger brother government fueled in anger and ignorance, like tunnel vision, from hypnosis ejaculating righteous indignation, there you have it, a mass of stupid followers, being herded by those who put in overtime, just so they can run things and they do.

If there ever was a true medium and there are many Verna was the real thing and great at that.

Years later I have had the good fortune to be involved with Greta Woodrow who maws allowed the thrill of the speed of light and Olga Worrall the healer who worked on me remote from the Para psychological lab at Duke University ,where I immediately went to the bathroom and urinated out foul green puss, a miracle ,YES.

“Timeless Occult” went on over its 4 years to become world famous, with some 60 pages of newspaper headliners and articles launched the last “Jimi Hendrix” film ,”Rainbow Bridge” directed and produced by the Warhol wiz kid “Chuck Wein”, a timeless regular, and a master metaphysician in his own rite.

As of 2006 Chuck just shot a 3 hour interview of me , in which I demonstrated instant hypnosis diagnosis using past-life technique,he’ going to release it with others

Of old Hollywood occult daze.
