Hi Hawkeye,
Yeah my mom named me after the movie. Liberace was definitely flamboyant. Its hard to gauge self-importance by how a person behaves, some people are natural entertainers, and it actually takes a dose of humility to be silly, weird, eccentric, or daring at times. I learned this from a drama class I took, that to entertain in front of an audience you have to give up some rigid ideas about yourself.
I remember I had some books by Depak Chopra, and also he did two cds a while back with music and famous actors reciting poems or singing,...the poems of Rumi. I like Indian mystics, I guess he could be considered a modern one? I know he weaves many perspectives together and I'm sure he's read Castaneda.
Yes, agree. I think as new seers, the attention on the abstract is what is emphasized, removing dualism from the issue, as you said.
