Conversations with Avant-garde Sages
BENJAMIN SMYTHE: No, not to swim in, just to sit next to.
[Laughing] What was the gathering like for you?
TRIP: Well in that sense of heightened oneness that we're all
sharing there, as you looked around the room in any room that
you were in, or any little group of people that you were in, each
and every person was so beautiful, so magnificent. Something
about being in that space brings out the deliciousness of life in
every one of them.
So I guess we're all here probably because we've been so touched
and moved and uplifted, we feel joyous, we want to share that with
other people. But the sharing doesn't take place so seamlessly all
the time, like I found myself at gatherings where people are still
suffering and they have no idea what we're sharing right now. It's
not always necessarily going to be the case, you're not going to be
able to be in a room full of people that are all opening really
coming, feeling open, and able to share. But it is grace when it
happens and comes together and that's what we just came from.
So I feel refreshed, everyone feels very refreshed, refreshed in our
connection.
BENJAMIN SMYTHE: Yes, that's nice.
TRIP: And we're psyched that it's going to keep on going tonight,
and you're going to be participating in a Satsang tonight at the
Barn at Valhalla. It'll be a lot of fun, anybody's welcome and it's
starting at seven o'clock. Come by. It should be a lot of fun; it's
going to be a bit cutup I'm sure.
BENJAMIN SMYTHE: Yes, well it's a lot of sitting, I try not to do
too much, so the questions dictate what happens, so if you don't
like sitting in silence with yourself, you probably won't enjoy it in
some ways. I'm not warning you, but suit yourself whoever is
listening. The one thing that I wanted to say about the gathering
of oneness is it only takes one person to experience that, so it's fun
to gather together with likeminded people to feel the oneness, and
then go to Tar Heels game in the basketball arena and you'll have
