286 DATE WITH THE GODS
we can catch any radio station in the world. Before we
start, though, I want you to relax and concentrate. Your
body is going to be like an antenna to these radio
frequencies in the air now. Hold this stone in your hand,
and take this other one and put it next to your head.
What's your favorite radio station?"
"I have several in many places in the world-KFAC
FM in Los Angeles, WABC-AM in New York, Radio
Luxemburg, Panamericana in Lima, KRLA in Pasa

okay ... now, don't move; just concentrate on this."
She placed my keys on top of a rock, and told me to
follow the reflection of the light, just as if I were
beginning my astral projection exercises. This time,

just as I had followed the ray of light when I was astral
traveling.
I must have been there for more than an hour, trying
to relax and feel something. Rama just sat there looking
through my books. Seeing that nothing was happening,
she come over to me and started massaging the back of
my neck and the sides of my head.
When I had astral traveled, I knew what to look for,
but this was a new experience. Now I was supposed to be
sensing the electromagnetic waves of radio broadcast
