This transcription is in the Zen and CS-KSU file

This file ENDS as follows: ...See, in awareness you have a memory of yourself. This is the amazing thing. A lot of people think that when you enter this absolute state you forget. No. You forget your personality but you remember yourself, you’re aware of yourself. But you can see at any given time, you can see the creation in yourself, in the creation. But that doesn’t mean that you’re identified with it. That you love it, that you want to go back and be making a million dollars. That part is absurd. The whole trip seems to be absurd.
