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

ALBERT NAHMANI: That's right. You can't. That's why it's only<br />

in memory comparisons that one can get an idea of some shift<br />

that, in fact, being in the Now, the I-thought is not aware, the self<br />

not being here, the self not interfering, being set aside, the small I.<br />
