At one moment during the Board meeting* I was asked: If they rejected me, would I ‘move Heaven and Earth’ to be ordained? ** I said[:] Certainly not; I tried to explain this; and ended up, rather to my own surprise, saying that I would await instructions. So that is what I shall do: instructions from the pattern of internal and external events (ie inner and outer happenings). I am already doing it, and receiving and perceiving them, and acting upon them.

All good clean fun.
