Brazil

Fortaleza is a beautiful city in Atlantic coast of Brazil, the closest major city to Amazon River and Brazilian Amazon. We decided to make trips and tour of the forest but actually stay in Fortaleza which was a beautiful city. More exotic than anywhere I seen in north or South America. Beautiful sky, beautiful buildings, huge library, beautiful Brazilian girls , and very busy night life with all kind of clubs, cabarets and bars and movie theatres.



For me it was a treat because I was single. Whenever I asked Dr. Ilham to come to a club with me, he will politely decline. I wouldn't blame him, the atmospher was so tempting he would have had to stay away from exotic clubs in bars to stay faithful.



Anyways, we rented a two bedroom house in the cities suburbs. Dr Ilham dodn't want the feel of big city. WE found something like New mexicos mudhouses. With thick walls that provided excellent sound and weather insulation and If you don't drive to city, you would think you were in a village from 18th century Britain. With the excption that we had electricty and refrigerator. No TV, but we did have a transistor radio just for case of emergency or weather.

We would talk, discus civilizations, cultures, ancient Egypt, Bakhteria, Persia, Babelion. I learned so much from Dr Ilham about Koshan Budhists, and Ashoka and Kanishka and Grandfather of Aryans Yama or how Iranians call it Jamshed, their traditional drinks which was juice of grains and fruite , and later on Zerostrism and Budhism and fire temples that were burning for hundreds of years that I was all ears.

Our discussion were usualy so intense and time consuming that we had only for occasions of traveling to forest and spending whole day there. And another couple times we just went to the river.



What you see in the next few chapters are the ideas and theories developped from those lengthy discussions. I admit most of it was Dr. Ilhams ideas and concusions but we agreed to put nothing in the book unless we both agreed on.
