The curtain defines a threshold

like a spiritual object, a threshold between a dweller and a visitor at the Welcome Habitat. The curtain serves to heighten a sense of anticipation and expectation and it makes ugly things beautiful. 

"I imagine some of you have questions of our visitor," s/he said, breaking the ice. 

S/He answered all questions with a minimum of words. 

"I noticed their smile, I think, when I asked them the question about feeling anything. Did you see it?"
"Do you think they were delusional or was it real?"
"It certainly felt real to them."

"An elevation experience is ubiquitous."
"But elevation with others?"
"I could see you are skeptical, maybe cynical?"

"Yes."
