Early this morning, when I should-could-would have been dreaming, perhaps, I started writing up an invocation/invitation/description for this event, inspired by recent exchanges here. I did not get to finish putting it together, so glad you got this page up, @douggins. This is the beginning of how I wanted to frame things:

## Cosmos Café [2020-03-20] - Countering the CoronaVirus of the Mind

> Beyond facts and factoids, there is a zone. Let us call it the 5th dimension, wherein time and space are born and die—some call it the quantum foam; others, consciousness itself—the ontological primal, the incorporeal jelly-like substance we’re made of. _Let’s meet there._ No facemasks needed. Keep your skin cells to your self. Let your love light shine through virtual face, hands, gestures, and (weather permitting) well-tempered words. We are all zoomers now. Songs and crayons/paper welcome, and new faces come in from the social isolation of the retracting global dome—a nestweaving of birds appropriates the moment, gathers in the shady sun of still-brown branches that shiver and grow.

I particularly wanted (would still like) to ask:

- How can we understand “CoronaVirus” from different metaphysical points of view?

- What is the significance of Cornavirus for our _times_?

- What is the occult emergent opportunity that Cornovirus perhaps presents for world change? What kind of _good ideas_ might be possible to manifest and realize now that weren’t before?

I also thought I’d share Mirra Alfassa (aka The Mother’s) account of her encounter with the Spanish Flu, via @Matteo, who sent this to the members of the _Savitri_ reading group after our last event.

My final questions for now:

- What is the occult reality of CoronaVirus?
- Who is CoronaVirus in the subtle realm?
- What is the relationship between CoronaVirus and God?
