Warm Greetings, I've had a further communication from Dr Dan Burisch
via his Assistant Director which has been kindly forwarded to me by
Bll Hamilton, Director of Skywatch International. I had an interview
on the George Noory Show on April 15 in which Dr Burisch was invited
to appear and this invitation has been extended to him. I also
intend to reply to the following message so I hope we continue to
hear more from Dr Burisch, and that a public dialogue is maintained.

In peace,

Michael Salla, PhD

Dr. Salla,

I have been authorized to send you a response to your reply to Dr.
Dan Burisch. For now, Dr. Dan is being restricted as to what to
communicate so his Assistant Director has been kind enough to
attempt a reply on his behalf.

To: Dr. Michael Salla

Re: Follow-up comments to your letter to Dr. Dan BC Burisch

Dr. Salla,

Dr. Dan Burisch has been made aware of your recent letter, and as
his ability to communicate with anyone outside our 'community' has
been severely restricted due to recent events, I have been asked to
try to relay his thoughts, as well as the position of the research
team with respect to your well crafted and thoughtful letter.

True friendship appears to be a thread winding its way throughout
the body of your letter. And indeed, Dr. Burisch values true
friendship very greatly. It is a rare and treasured gift, to be
cherished as we wander through the difficulties of this world.

Perhaps, the number of true friends we acquire in this lifetime is
intentionally kept to a small number because of the fact that we
feel so moved by that relationship that we often suspend our own
best judgment in order to preserve and foster a deepening of that
bond.
However, in the case of Dr. Burisch, and indeed most of us involved
in this research, the raising of true friendship over best judgment
cannot be permitted, no matter how tempting it may be, since those
aspects of friendship such as mutually beneficial projects, good
manners, apparent respect and assistance can all be a 'glamour'
obscuring a hidden agenda.

Even if that hidden agenda appears to be full of virtue, such as the
mitigation of human suffering, it comes perilously close to reaching
out, or touching the Fruit of the Tree of Life; an action which
cannot be condoned by anyone on this project.

Comparing Dr. Burisch to Gilgamesh or Prince Siddartha who set off
upon the noble quest to mitigate human suffering, or to seek
immortality so that nobody would ever again have to experience the
pain of loss of a 'true friend', is tantamount to a carefully
disguised maneuver to direct or guide his caring and humanity-loving
nature in a direction which appears on the surface to be worthy and
full of great virtue.

Actions (conversion of the observational nature of this project into
a technology of any form) even to alleviate human suffering, or the
pain of loss in such a manner would be tantamount to touching the
Fruit of the Tree of Life.

As to the question of whether the J-Rod asked permission before
flooding Dr. Burisch with mental images - Dr. Burisch regards this
as a personal matter between the J-Rod, himself and God.

And finally, disclosure of the extraterrestrial presence, regardless
of whether it concerns the factions of the J-Rods with which we have
become familiar, or other extraterrestrial entities which are
unknown to us at this time, it is Dr. Burisch's position that such a
disclosure is not an issue over which he has any unique position
which might help to promote a particular outcome.

We in this project agree that we have been placed in a very unique
position: we have been chosen by the Majestic 12 to perform an
important task, albeit a humbly small task when considered in the
overall panorama of Terrestrial and Exopolitical agendae. But beyond
that, we have been chosen by The Creator, as evidenced by the
Spiritual Entities surrounding this Project that help to guide our
small steps. They always remind us to honor the admonition to 'look
but not touch' the Fruit of the Tree of Life which we have been
given the honor to study. It is unwise therefore for any of us to
believe that Providence has placed us in a unique position whereby
we could help promote any particular outcome, since by so steering
or manipulating the observations, or our actions concerning those
observations, we might ignore the very founding Tenet upon which our
work has been sanctioned by the Creator of All Life.

While we are always moved to consider the ethical and moral
questions surrounding disclosure and our work on the Lotus, we will
not continence any maneuvering with regard to any aspect of our
observations, our actions, or our conclusions. This we do with
respect for the Creator of Life and in humility as human beings.

Sincerely,

Marcia A. McDowell, M.A.
