I wish I had saved all the comments that I have received relating unusual or spiritual experiences. I received the most shortly after I published the first book, for that had the most sales. I received a quite a few of private letters from people relating their experiences over the years. There was an amazing number of people who mysteriously heard bells or encountered a mysterious stranger.
Then over the years I have received some odd ones from people who think they were someone important in a past life wanting me to follow them. These past lives range from Jesus to John, to Paul to John the Baptist to Joseph Smith. The Joseph Smith guy was particularly upset at me for not following him and condemned me to hell. He hasn't been on [the discussion group] "David's Outcast" as far as I know, and I would not have sent him that direction.
I was glad that Cheri had a spiritual experience after reading Book Four as the grand tour was one of my favorite parts to write. A number of people have expressed intense feelings over the part where I am instructed to bless the universe.
I have also received a lot of comments from people who have had spiritual experiences from saying the Song of the 144,000.
