Conversations with Avant-garde Sages
PRASAD PAUL DUFFY: So that I make myself available to others
who are ready.
WIZARD: When you mention Maharaji, are you talking about
Neem Karoli Baba?
PRASAD PAUL DUFFY: No, not that Maharaji, this one lives in
Hrishikesh, she's still alive actually. She's also the guru to
ShantiMayi who travels around America giving Satsang, if people
have ever heard of her. But he's a traditional guru, and so I spent
time with him, but Papaji was beyond tradition, that's what we
were saying earlier, he's beyond tradition, beyond religion, a true
awakened being, and so many people woke up with him because
he held space for it, he didn't put it in the future, he didn't need to
be in front of a room. When I first saw him that first day in
Satsang, I could tell he would prefer to be watching cricket.
WIZARD: When I met him he was sitting at the kitchen table
watching cricket.
PRASAD PAUL DUFFY: Yes, and he was very agreeable for people
to come into the house, and I would just want to sit next to him,
but the point is he didn't… there was nobody there trying to be a
guru. In all the new age spiritual American gurus that I saw, the
Indian gurus who came to America, they would all identify with
being a guru, they were all trying to get their gig going, make some
money, keep their religion going, whatever it was. And Papaji
wasn't, so somehow my ego trusted him fully because of that. So
I'm a non-guru guru, I just live my life but I'm very active on
Facebook, and I'm very active in what I call with my community
live Facebook.
TRIP: Dude, we are so on the same page, oh my God, oh my God.
PRASAD PAUL DUFFY: I go outside when I'm hanging out with
the friends at these dance concerts. I'm a music promoter I told
you too, the conscious music, so I throw events, and I go to events,
and I'm very much involved with the underground Venice Beach
