I pointed out that everyone who had been invited to come to the island has already embraced the privilege of the PUL, and made a commitment to humanity, as a privilege, to uplift it, just like Erica has made it. "Our individual commitment has been made in different ways perhaps, than Erica has expressed it, but the same commitment exists," I said. "The love that we bring to one-another in this everyday commitment, which we have cause to celebrate, is real, profound, and it has been founded in many ways on a profound scientific footing. Our footing is rooted in the recognized reality of our being, the Principle of Universal Love that we cannot get away from anymore, that brings to light the universal marriage of mankind as an undeniable reality that we are already experiencing in our life in countless different ways. It is still a privilege, though, but one that we tend to celebrate more and more."

      I explained that Indira had recognized this privilege almost immediately. "We met in late afternoon at the airport in New Delhi," I said. "We drove into town, had supper, went for a long walk afterwards. Then, in the same night the recognition unfolded that love could only exist in the universal dimension, otherwise too much of it would be missing. That's when the privilege was acknowledged that is expressed in the principle of the universal marriage of humanity. We acknowledged it joyously, because it accords with the recognition that love can only unfold in the universal domain where it isn't encumbered with countless limits. The two aspects became one, and they gave us the freedom to act accordingly.  Consequently, as soon as we arrived at Indira's apartment, I sent an e-mail off to Fred with a funding request for a medical van that was required to give Indira's love a wider expression." I explained that the van was requested by both of us to serve her as a more efficient infrastructure for the much-needed effort to turn the tide in India towards uplifting the status of the Dalit people, the lowest class, called "The Untouchables."

      "This really happened, and not long ago," said Indira. "It enables me to help many more people, but more than this, I can see a shift in the people's attitude towards themselves and even towards others. What we started made a big difference for all of us, especially in my life. Now we are beginning to discover that we always had this privilege to become angels in this way."

      I nodded. "And then, there is Heather," I said after taking a sip of fruit juice. "I am extremely proud to know her, especially of her accomplishments in the important field of universal love that she gave herself the privilege to become involved in. Heather and I go a way back in exploring the Principle of Universal Love, all the way back to my bewildering experience in East Germany where I met a whole lot of unbelievably exciting people. Right after coming back I met Heather. Our first weeks together we equally bewildering in wide open, although somewhat different way. We knew that we needed to tear down the barriers that divide humanity, from the sexual division to the social division, to the economic division, all the way to the political division. But how to do it? Heather became an expert in countering all of them, but not immediately. There lay rough years in between when disaster struck and none of us knew how to proceed. But she remained with us, unsinkable by the worst storms. Some of the storms took us a long time to get out of. Now Heather stands at the forefront of a global effort in fighting for the survival of Africa. That's Heather, a giant! And yes, sex is back in the foreground again, but on a much higher level than ever before, even while it remains on the sideline."

      Next I spoke about Olive. "With Olive it was the other way around," I said that. It was her love for humanity, her compassion, and her commitment to uplift the whole world, which brought us together in the first place. Yes, sex had a place in the foreground, too, and likewise on the sideline, and it likely always will remain that way."
