money represents. And so we felt that it was more helpful, and<br />

particularly <strong>with</strong> this Western market, it would be far more<br />

effective to charge rather than to not, in most cases, in every case<br />

that's not necessarily true, there are instances.<br />

WIZARD: I've got a calling to do a retreat in the mountains and<br />

not charge anybody anything, and everything seems to be falling in<br />

place. I think I might call it Onederful. I'll send an invite when I<br />

get it together, or when it gets me together [Laughs].<br />

TRIP: Well I'm lucky because I have my local friend and mentor<br />

here in the <strong>Wizard</strong>, and he's been unbelievably helpful, and<br />

confirming, and affirming my realization. But I think it's amazing<br />

that anyone can call you up and for $60 an hour to spend an hour<br />

<strong>with</strong> you on the phone. If somebody is serious about their own<br />

spiritual wellbeing, that is an amazing bargain.<br />

WIZARD: It's a bargain. It's priceless.<br />

WIZARD: We haven't heard anything about Penelope.<br />

NICK GANCITANO: Yes, she's sitting right here.<br />

WIZARD: Talk about attractive. [Laughs]<br />

NICK GANCITANO: She is, yes, she is just wonderful in every<br />

way. And she just waved. [Laughter]<br />

WIZARD: Hi, Penelope.<br />

TRIP: Well we didn't get to even half of what I wanted to ask you<br />

because I was interested in all the folks that you've got on your<br />

bookstore, some of them I haven't heard like Joseph Benner, I'm<br />

not familiar <strong>with</strong> him. <strong>The</strong> rest of them I am, but I would have<br />

been interested to hear about your interactions <strong>with</strong> those folks.<br />

Lots of other things I would have loved to have spoken <strong>with</strong> you<br />

about, maybe you can come sometime.<br />
