Gracia Bennish is an artist and photographer and a longterm Scientologist, featured this week in the Houston Chronicle blog, in which she says: “I would say one would be very pleasantly surprised to experience the ability to vastly increase one’s perceptions.

I’ve also added a YouTube video — a concert of Chick performing The Ultimate Adventure, an album to accompany the science fiction novel of the same title by L. Ron Hubbard.  Performing in this video are Chick Corea... Read more
