Want to achieve that level of honesty, a direct wire that goes from experience to words, unmanipulated. Roberts volume needs to be upped though. Thank you for this interview.

Talk is cheap, as is ideas. No idea is one's own.

Many have noticed that Saltzman has become the very thing he puts down: A self-proclaimed “wise one” with a self diagnosed awakening, sticking there neck out, and telling people what’s what. He has a rather high opinion of himself! “I am a man of wisdom” - Robert Saltzman “I’m telling a story, and so did Nisargadatta. I think my story is better than his, and I’ll tell you why. I could be completely wrong and you can laugh at me. What? He’s better than Nisargadatta? Next thing he’ll be saying that he’s just as good as the motherfucking Buddha! Well, I kind of am saying that so let’s cut to the chase.” - Robert Saltzman

I have no idea of what it is to be Robert. The best truth I know is from Jesus words when asked by a disciple which laws should be followed . Apparently He replied : "We are Jews , so we follow the Jewish Law , but if you but follow these two things I tell you -all else is covered : Love God with all your heart , soul , and strength , and Love others as if they are your self ." (my paraphrase) . When I was 23 I read a book on Hopi Indian medicine plants as understood by the shamans . It told me that psilocybin is a medicine for contacting God . Some months later , out of the blue , a friend gave me a small handful of dried psilocybin mushrooms . For some reason I put it in a sandwich and ate it . 20 minutes later I began to feel disoriented and regretted my decision but something told me to tough it out. I was in a peaceful rural setting with friends who I lived there with . Night had fallen . I sat in the forest for sometime not far from the others , just watching the scene . Something inspired me to be fully present , and at times I began to ask for more clarity - more information. This information arrived , seemingly through the crown of my head . I became joyful , relieved of psychodramas , a feeling of utter redemption filled my heart. As this continued , I laughed , cried with relief , and became aware of Light flooding through my crown . As I relaxed in this Light I felt an indescribable Love . I became aware of this Light being filled with symbols I didn't understand - like hierolglyphics , geometric shapes , maybe Sanskrit symbols etc. As this continued and I went deeper and deeper , I became aware of the source of this Loving , Living Light. I felt it to be God . I asked a question of this Source of All things and was inwardly answered immediately. (I won't share that but suffice it to say that this answer filled me with indescribable joy , and I felt the Light pouring through me ). This experience was entirely beyond anything in my experience or imagination. Decades later I still cannot explain it as anything other than as described .How simply wonderful........ GOD IS LOVE .

I don’t think there is any way for a human to speak directly about awakening without appearing to know something that others don’t , or appearing to have something others don’t have . I will say that R.S’s books punched me right in the face this time . I heard so much . I read his book in the past and it was different this time . He does help with his talks and books
