<strong>Conversations</strong> <strong>with</strong> <strong>Avant</strong>-<strong>garde</strong> <strong>Sages</strong><br />

experience the spaciousness by leading up to it through a method<br />

of Self-Inquiry, really looking at the I thought? Or is that simply<br />

confirm something you've already experienced?<br />

WIZARD: <strong>The</strong>re is no I-thought. When you go to look for the Ithought,<br />

it's not there. So the I-thought is just a belief, like Santa<br />

Claus, it never was. <strong>The</strong>n that leaves you <strong>with</strong> no place to hang<br />

your hat, there are no nouns left.<br />

TRIP: Well here's the thing about that, okay, now I'm just<br />

possibilities, so to say that… God, nothing limits her, right,<br />

nothing and nobody limits her, just using that as a little analogy,<br />

and nothing limits her. So to say or to think that, okay, there is a<br />

timeless spiritual, eternal insight into true nature is the way, or to<br />

say that the higher reasoning, is the way, or to make any<br />

commentary about the past is true, is correct, but you can add all<br />

the other commentaries as well as being true and correct, every<br />

possible approach is available and is correct. What sets any<br />

limits? What defines what is possible or what is not possible, if it's<br />

not just an impression in thought? Having said that, what you're<br />
