Dear Mr. Leong,

I am unaware of anyone in Southeast Asia who practices Itlaq Yolu. If

you would like to Skype, just let me know.

Hi Millicent,
Thanks for the reply, I got the book “Masters of Wisdom of Central Asia” a
while back.
Maybe one day you will write a book about your own experiences after
your encounter with Mr Hasan Shushud in Turkey back in the
seventies… cheers:)

Dear Beat,

I’m afraid I don’t know anyone in Switzerland/Europe who knows

the breathing. (And certainly, there might be!).

I speak only English. If your English is strong enough, we can

Skype.

You are always welcome to email me.

Respectfully,

Millicent
