46. good idea... ok.
Lahiri Mahasaya (Dead 115+ years ago India)
HWL poonjaji (Dead 10 years ago India)
Rama, Frederick Lenz (dead 8 years ago New York)
Padma Sambhava (dead 1000 years ago tibet)
Gangaji, Antoinette Varner (living www.gangaji.org)
Adida, Franklin Jones (living www.adidam.org)

In my party, if the guests would accept such an invitation itself would mean they
felt an outer meeting was in order, something unlikely indeed given the sorts
of beings to start with. So, "if" my guests were to accept the invitation, the
party would be 6 fully enlightened souls and myself.

I would serve the guests a meal of cold waters, sparkling and natural. Coffee
would be served generously, along with any spirit of the bar that fancied an
interest. Likeley the champagne would be extroadinarily expensive, more than
i can afford, probably i'd have to sell my soul into debt to purchase a champagne
worthy of my guests. But the honour of their grace in my life would be most
deeply welcome.

So, the intent of the party would be enlightenment. Little more can be said,
except that in even considering it, here, now, i am moved to tears of joy
to have ever heard of the list of persons i would like for dinner.

As enlightenment is without preconception, there is little point on planning
a discussion.

The table would be set a round table with 7 chairs. Vegetarian fare would
be served otherwise, along with fine deserts. Available to play would be a
middle eastern band and a troupe of belly dancers, if the guests so desired
tantric enlightenment dancing in a thanka painted tomorrow.
