A “prophet” in a truck stop in Quartzsite, Arizona, divined Kum’ren Ali and I much about our Road Trip.

He said, “You can call me Small Paul. Paul means “small.” The smallest is equal to the largest, and the second smallest is equal to the second largest, and the third smallest is equal to the third largest, and so on. When you get to the middle, well, that’s unusual.”

He “knew” about my recent experiences with deja vu – and challenged me to try to change the next one.

Small Paul told us the parable of the 3 worms in the Golden Apple, and how the one evicted from the apple was swallowed by a dove

He told Kum’ren, “That’s just like you. You’ve just been swallowed by God.”

Small Paul “knew” Kum’ren had a conflict between music and metaphysics.

He told her, “You made a good choice, but you can do both.”

Then he stared intently into her eyes until a bindi formed out of the flesh of her forehead on her pineal gland reflex – which is also a “traveling” reflex and a “wedding” reflex.

(The raised bump remained for 3 days.)

He told Kum’ren she was married before birth.

He told her, “I’m here to teach you what you already know.”

He told her a healing heals the healer as well as the healed, and that healing is always a “we” function.

He asked, “You KNOW who sent me, don’t you?”

Small Paul also warned us about the crises we were about to encounter on our Road Trip together.

He rapidly recited Cosmic Beat Poetry for 5 minutes, then released us from his spell and went back to drinking his coffee.

Kum’ren and I are now in Sedona, Arizona, visiting Alex & Beatriz Gutierrez. Alex is the author of Mother Mary’s Resurrection: A Businessman’s Awakening Through Our Universal Mother, 2009.
