"I was giving this lecture back in
the 70's and everybody in those days wore white, and they had flowers in
their hair and we sang a lot, and we were all - it was like an explorers
club coming together, and sitting in the front row was this woman about 70
years old and she had - she had a bonnet on with little strawberries,
plastic strawberries, and cherries and things and she had a black patent
leather bag and solid oxfords and a print dress and she was a very - I kept
thinking, she was so unlike everybody else in the audience, I kept thinking
what is she doing here.
I thought maybe she's somebody's grandmother or
somebody brought her or - so I would tell these far out stories that what
happened to me under psychedelics for the most part or deep meditation, and
I'd look over and she'd be going like this, and I thought well maybe she has
a neck problem.
I mean it was inconceivable to me that
she could understand what I was talking about, and she kept going like this
and I kept getting more far out and watching - I mean the whole evening
became focused on this woman.
And at the end I couldn't stand it, the
evening was over.
And I just had to know and I kind of smiled her up -
actually couldn't get away, and she came up and she said oh thank you that's
- the way you said it she said that's just the way I understand the universe
to be, and I said, how do you know?
What have you done in your life that has
put you in the space where you know these things, and she leaned forward
very conspiratorially and she said, I crochet, and that moment of realizing
that just the simplest thing, that in the way she did that took her into
those spaces and realizing at that moment that I had gotten so hooked on my
method, and that methods are methods are methods and people do it all
different kinds of ways..."
