An article in the Independent Weekly (indyweek.com) from August 27, 2008
"The Two Faces of Bo Lozoff: Fall from Grace"
"There comes a time when an individual becomes irresistible
and his action becomes all-pervasive in its effect.
This comes when he reduces himself to zero."
Mahatma Gandhi
now how the heck do you do that?

From 1985 to 1990 I worked on an experiment in the very strange field of Instrumental Transcommunication (ITC), which is an attempt to bridge the gap between the physical and other planes by means of material devices. The project failed, but in time this kind of work could become significant. Here are some pictures from those years. (The Gallery is also listed on the Physics page; the paper, from 1998, is a little too whacky for anywhere but here!)

Who Am I?
Who am I?
I am not the thought.
What thought?
The thought that I am not the thought is the thought that I am not.
Who am I?
I am not the mind.
What mind?
The mind that thinks the thought that I am not the mind
is the mind that I am not.
Who am I?
I am not the breath.
What breath?
The breath that feeds the mind that thinks the thought that I am not the breath
is the breath that I am not.
Who am I?
I am not the song.
What song?
The song that sings with breath that feeds the mind
that thinks the thought that I am not the song
is the song that I am not.
Who am I?

Lyrics to A Sufi Song, from Ananda Songs
I
f the Beautiful One is not
standing ready in your heart? The flame in his eyes has seared away
every veil!
curtain, afraid of what you cannot
see?
