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

All of a sudden, at that point I had survived a near death<br />

experience, I survived nearly dying, and I was quite detached from<br />

everything I was dealing <strong>with</strong>, there was a lot of equanimity at that<br />

point. And just through this observing it in a detached way all of a<br />

sudden this inner vow sprung forth really, really strongly from my<br />

heart, and it was like everything sank right into the heart chakra,<br />

and living from the heart rather than the mind starts happening<br />

very, very strongly. And it had already for a long time in my life<br />

that I was more in my heart than in my mind, and didn't<br />

understand why people didn't get along, or why there was<br />

separation in the first place, or the third dimension, it was alien to<br />

me, it felt very, very strange that I didn't feel I quite belonged<br />

about what form it would take, none. And to my great surprise a<br />

few weeks later all of a sudden the light poetry started flowing<br />

through me, and I don't know if one would call it channeling,<br />

because it wasn't really that I asked for it, or something, it was just<br />

I would sit one day.<br />

And it was actually on a day where I had a lovely conversation <strong>with</strong><br />

my best friend, Susan Kahn from emptinessteachings.com, she's<br />

just the most wonderful woman I know, and our common buddy<br />

Michael Jefferies, who does the Eckhart Tolle Meet-ups in Santa<br />

Monica. And we were on the phone having a laugh, as we<br />

sometimes do, and all of a sudden the first poem started coming<br />

through, and I just jotted it down. I was very, very surprised<br />

because I had not written poetry before, I had done a book review<br />

column, and similar things, but written for Miracles magazine, I'd<br />
