Guest guest Posted May 8, 2002 Report Share Posted May 8, 2002 I saw Wayne Liqourman aka Ram Tzu in Duxbury (Boston area) last friday. As some of you may know Wayne's guru is Ramesh Balsekar. Ramesh's guru is Nisargadatta. This was the second time I attended Wayne's Satsang. Last year I asked lots of questions. This year I was hoping to laugh at least half as much as he did. The sacred paradox about Wayne is that, like U.G., although he does not set himself up as a holy man in the business of enlightening people, when one is ready to hear the message, he will appear as a sage. When I listen to most live gurus I don't agree with some parts of what they are saying. I was surprised to find myself agreeing with Wayne most of the time and what's even more important is that as Wayne spoke I knew what he said didn't matter as much because it was Consciousness wrapped in flesh and bones, calling itself Wayne, me, you. Wayne's site is: www.advaita.org Hur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 This bmo has also found itself at two of Wayne's satsangs here in Boulder. This bmo resonates strongly Wayne's words about Nothing as well. Namastè, Davè 'It gets subtler and subtler. That which you think you know, gets subtler and subtler. It's really a process very much like a dog chasing its tail. Your mind is set in motion seeking itself, chasing itself, trying to catch itself. And if you have a mind that is strong, that has a lot of intellect behind it, you can get spinning VERY fast! And you can catch up! You can GAIN, on yourself! And the faster you get spinning, the closer that you gain on yourself and perhaps, if there is Grace, you will disappear up your own ass! And this describes the path of jnana. I don't know what veda or sutra it is in, but that is essentially what we've set out to do: to inquire deeply, to look at that which is asking the questions; to look at that which is seeking; and to find out: is there any substance there? And it's not something that I can do for you. I can sit up here all day and talk about it, and if you trust me...then you'll say, " He's telling the truth, what he's saying is valid, I believe him. " But I am NOT telling the truth. What I am saying here is NOT the truth. At the very best, these are pointers towards that truth, towards That which Is, That which is the Source and the Substance of everything; that Consciousness which is all there is. That which is our True Nature, That which we Are.'
