        Dr> my question is to the amount of time that

        Again, I can offer little but a guide line here as my
        ignorance shows. While the following may not be of much help, it is the
        best I can do at this point in time.

       "To master change-nothing is more important than to know the
        time, To master time-nothing is more important than to understand inner
        design, to understand inner design-nothing is nore important than open
        calm" (Chung ho chi)

        The transformations of Heaven can be seen by observing change; the
        trends of the times can be checked by observing images; by observing
        concrete manifestations will the sincerity of people be made known.

       I would gather that to come to the conclusion that you seek, you must
       place yourself in the framework of clarity and openness of mind, and
       meditate upon the outcome.
       For it is all too often what we wish may cloud what is.

       You have seen the changes and the images and have made the necessary
       observations of the concrete. Now must one turn inward to cut through 
       the illusions that may bar the way of the true seeing.

       It is through calm acceptance thru meditation that this open clarity of
       vision will allow one to look again within to see what it is you have
       already perceived.

       I hope that this is of some use , and that you do not think that I have
       take liberties with untoward assumptions.
