process of spiritual revitalization. Others transported to new world. Make new life. Create new world. The definitions oftranspire and expire are interesting when com- pared. Expire means: to breathe one's last breath; die. To come to an end; terminate. Transpire means: to cause (vapor, moisture, efc.); to pass through tissue or other permeable substances, especially through the pores of the skin. Does this mean this is the way it will happen?

It was a strange concept, but it began to sound like the aliens knew something was going to happen to our Earth. In anticipation they were preparing another planet for migration. Some humans would be taken in their earthly physical bodies to inhabit that new world. Others would apparently die here, but their spirits could travel to the new world, if they wished, and reincarnate in physical bodies that would be similar to those left on Earth, and therefore would be familiar tothem.

This was what had dashed their hopes, at that time, of creating a perfect world free of defects and disease. Even though they had to settle for the lesser develop- mentas our species adjusted to its surroundings, it seemed that they had not given up on their dream of creating a Utopia, a second Garden of Eden, for humankind. A strange concept, but then every- thing connected with this project had been strange and original to my mind. 224 The Keepers ofthe Garden
