Alexander Smit Interview

Memories of Alexander Smit

alexander smitAlexander Smit was a Dutch student of Nisargadatta, who taught advaita for 20 years and died in 1988. He was a contemporary and friend of Wolter Keers, frequently mentioned here. A close friend, John Tuinman offers his recollections of a meeting with Alexander Smit:

A  memory comes to mind of the first day I met Alexander in 1988. I walked into the room where he was sitting relaxed in a chair with one of his hands leaning on the chair arm. I thought, "He seems very relaxed." It was something about that hand that touched me. I sat dawn and he looked around the room to see if anybody was new.

He saw me and asked: "Why have you come?"

I  blurted out: "Self-realization!" because I had been searching for years, yearning like a hungry dog for that divine bone called Self Realization.

Then Alexander asked me: "What do you mean by the 'Self' and what do you mean by  'Realization'?"

The effect of those questions nailed me to my seat.
