into abiding. And then this seeming Ramana presence shortly
after that left me, because obviously you cannot perceive yourself
as a scribe, perceive yourself as receiving wisdom from another,
and move into abiding too. So that is how that ended was with
that lesson, that it was time to move now from one phase to the
next.
WIZARD: Right on!
TRIP: Everything that you're telling us now, this all happened
before our last, our meeting that we had, like a year ago?
REGINA AKERS: Yes, this Ramana experience was in 2009.
TRIP: I just totally underappreciated you when I met you
[Laughs], I didn't realize, I didn't realize like how nuanced your
whole grasp is of all of this when I met you. I underappreciated
her.
WIZARD: I found Ramana Maharshi for me to be that perfect
mirror, that perfect reflection of what I am. And in that there's no
other, but it's reflecting; it's material plane reflection of the Truth.
His teachings or his conversations for me are my favorite piece of
literature is Talks and it's my bible, so to speak.
REGINA AKERS: Well, you know, it's interesting because first of
all the messages that I received from this seeming Ramana
Maharshi have been published. A friend one day in the shower felt
guidance to start a publishing company and publish them, so
they're published in a book now called The Teachings of Inner
Ramana. And one of the messages in that book is called The
Grace of the Guru. And basically what The Grace of the Guru says
is that the reason that I, meaning Ramana…, the reason that I have
come is to show you yourself. And he said something like, I light a
little campfire in your heart, but when you come you light the
entire chamber.
WIZARD: Yes.
