Phone Home E.T. - An Extra Terrestrial moment.

A few weeks ago it was my job to clean out an old filing cabinet fully of 'Mani Jewel' paraphernalia. The Mani Jewel is our small shop located at the Temple in Maryland. The Mani Jewel is a church shop except its Buddhist!

In this filing cabinet I found all sorts of 'blast from the past' 1980s promotional material that the Mani Jewell had been sent from various vendors. My fave is this one - the title says it all; 'E.T. 101'. The 1982 Stephen Spielberg film E.T. with cutie-pie ET's signature phrase "E.T. Phone Home" had a few inspired beings (otherwise known as earthlings) riding on it's coat tails for interstellar advertising purposes!

The real clincher is written on the back! "Did you arrive on this planet without a set of instructions? Have you ever secretly suspected that you were adopted – from another, less dysfunctional world? Is your genetic coding giving you trouble recently? Do you vaguely recall a reason for being here but are pretty sure your current job’s not it? Hang in there. This book’s for you E.T. 101.’"


 And if you want to chill out after reading E.T. 101 try these 'chakra tuned' crystals bowls.

 Or tune in to the direct source - music from the Pleiades.


I think I will now 'go home' and straighten out my antennae!
