Conversations with Avant-garde Sages
there is only this moment, and like John always says, the Now,
there is the Now. So that's very easy, isn’t it? Do you think that
that's clear for everyone, that there is no past or future?
TRIP: I think it's pretty easy to get that one personally.
MORGAN CARAWAY: I mean space seems a little more difficult.
WIZARD: Space is illusion. Space or consciousness, what we
refer to as consciousness, is an illusion. And consciousness is…
I'm a lucid dreamer, and my lucid dreams are just as real, if not
more real, than this waking state. But it creates space, it creates
time, it creates everything. But yet when it segways into a waking
state, and moving from one word balloon so to speak of
consciousness into another word balloon of consciousness. And
all of that is happening in a stillness that is Now, it is pure
seamless sentient awareness, and the only sentience is that Now
that is formless, and the sentience reflects off the images to give it
apparent life.
MORGAN CARAWAY: Right, to me it's the light of awareness
moving within itself. And all space really is, it seems confounding,
like God, I'm standing here right now in the dunes near the beach,
and I'm looking and in the distance it looks like there's a walkway,
and there's buildings, and there's everything else. But really all of
those things are just an interpretation by thought of this light
that's appearing.
WIZARD: It's the bifurcating mind that creates space.
MORGAN CARAWAY: Right. The only thing we can really speak
about, wouldn't you agree, John, is here and Now?
WIZARD: That is correct.
MORGAN CARAWAY: That's the only thing we can really
authoritatively speak about.
