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

WIZARD: That's correct.<br />

REGINA AKERS: And maybe three. I think that in my inquiry<br />

one of the things that I've gotten to that I know, obviously again<br />

the idea that I am a woman can be questioned; I have seen that, I<br />

have questioned it. <strong>The</strong> idea that the thinking mind is me can be<br />

questioned; I've seen that, I can question that. <strong>The</strong> idea that the<br />

world is real can be questioned. But this presence, this Beingness,<br />

this existence, that can't be questioned. I cannot question is there<br />

something here? Is there a presence here? So that's another fact.<br />

Now what that is can be inquired into, and can be discovered, and<br />

can be realized. But Course students used to always say to each<br />

other, “I exist but you don't; you're in my dream.” And when you<br />

hear somebody saying that to you, you know that there's<br />

something that's not right. You may be completely confused about<br />

who or what you are, you may believe that you're an entity that<br />

you aren't, but there's something here, and that's something that<br />

we all know.<br />

WIZARD: <strong>The</strong> Now is irrefutable.<br />

REGINA AKERS: Right.<br />

WIZARD: <strong>The</strong> I thought is a belief, and <strong>with</strong> the belief of the I<br />

thought, that's the root of the tree of thoughts is the I-thought,<br />

self-inquiry goes to the very root of beliefs. And when you see the<br />

I-thought is no more real than the tooth fairy, and the belief<br />

structures start to fall away, the Now itself becomes what we all<br />

are. Any words or a pointer to that divinity, or that omnipresence<br />

is synonymous <strong>with</strong> Now. And it's indivisible, we all share it, it's<br />

beginning-less, and endless, birth-less, deathless, it's all of the<br />

adjectives and pointers that we use to point to Truth <strong>with</strong> a capital<br />

“T” of our non-physical existence or seamless sentience prior to<br />

the appearance of bodies and differences.<br />

REGINA AKERS: "Is" is a word that really seems to resonate for<br />

me, just…<br />
