My intention is to become a wizard someday (magician or whatever it suits better). This 'someday' may be tomorrow, after an year, after a billion years or whenever it has to be. After all, I have collected some information for the time I surfed around. Still only theoretical, but well, it seems this is as far as it goes. The only thing I sorry is that with my death all my memories and my information (it is more correct to say, considerations) will be taken from me. In every other aspect, my death will be my relief. From statistical point of view, such experiences are not expected soon (what a waste of time!). The only thing that makes me angry is the way some people are suiting the truth to fit their needs. They do not make difference between 'it has to be' and 'it is'. Also they play the 'game' without being ready to lose and face the consequences of it. And again, if somebody is? They search easy 'morale' way to live. I mean, 'morale' is a good thing but it is just part of the specification of the human being. Being good is not an outside law, or even if it is, that's not the way it works. The federal law is the one that has to frighten the criminals. But they are still criminals, waiting for the moment they will take over this law. And new law will be made I suppose. So what is right to do. The great 'cosmic morale' for me is to do the others what they want you to. That's the only way to be good with everyone and for very practical reasons it is impossible. I wrote too much, I know, but I am in a state of overemotionality, so excuse me. I have no anger in writing this message, or not more than usually. What I need to know is... 1. How to believe someone says the truth? Like you, for example. Ask him? Bad idea... 2. How to collect more information. I had a look at your graphics. The most useful around... That's why I'm writing all this. 3. Isn't it God trying to become the master being that will contain all souls, stepping out of the system by becoming the system itself. That will be good though... my being will be part of his being, but what about the identity survival.

To the Honourable Archwizard of New Zealand, I have been vaguely aware of your presence as a national icon of my country (I'm an Aucklander), although I think my Mum tried steering me away from recognising your existence as she thinks you're unhinged just a little, but I have thoroughly enjoyed reading of your adventures and struggles and I respect you all the more for it. You are definately a NZ role model for activists, and I hope you don't take bigotted hate-mail too seriously. I'm very interested in what exactly your theological beliefs are. (I have yet to hunt down your autobiography, but one day....) Personally, I believe in a balanced Creator-God who is intrinsically interested and involved in the metanarrative, or the 'great story of existence' from it's source to eschatalogical times. I also have universalist tendancies, and a past in wicca, although most would class me as 'christian' these days. I have also spent the past two years studying theology, world views, and have a particular interest in cosmology. As you are probably aware, a scholar named Hiebert speaks about an "excluded middle" when it comes to Western society, saying that there is no concept of what is classed as "low religion", involving shamanism, ancestor worship, curses and blessings and an overall awareness of the supernatural that is present in nations where materialism, capitalism and consumerism have not run so wild. I would disagree that there are elements of this found in Western society, down to primary school levels, where things like chain letters and numerology, and even fear of spirits is very real until we are indoctrinated by "sensible adults" that everything that isnt seen is imaginary, therefore not real, and therefore has no worth. What I am curious about, is how exactly cosmology and the metanarrative plays out in your mind, and what conclusions you have come to. One book which has largely influenced me (and the author as well, as I've heard him speak, then inevitably embarrased myself by having lunch with him and a few others and getting drawn into a heated discussion of whether getting malaria was 'manly' or not...) is "Eternity In Their Hearts" by Don Richardson, and speaks of the concept of a Universal Truth, and I urge you to hunt it down, as it's definately worth the effort. I would be honoured to have an email dialogue with you at some point. Until then: keep well! Your friend Laura K

I can not find words to express my admiration of your adventure. As a writer and weaver of words this is an odd moment. Most of us upon life's great journey are often set upon a narrow path, the safe path by those that love us and seek to keep us from the trials they've had to bear. But you have shed the blinders, the conditioning that keeps so many traveling the same path... You stepped out of the mundane to grasp the magick that is life. To explore it, taste it and fully immerse yourself in the experience. Not many are that brave to abandon all that society demands for "normal", to live within the moment with no regrets. Your journey speaks of a freedom, the kind that few can truly know. We are so wrapped up by our limitations, our society's boundaries and our fear to step out of our comfort zone. I would make on comment on the site here, as a web designer, this feedback page could us a little tweaking...see if you can have your web master do something about fixing the text - bit hard to read the comments. Safe journey Wizard,

Hey Wizard, my Uncle the Arab introduced me to you when I was a little girl and you gave me a book that I think was from the brothers Grimm...It had this weird silhouette picture of a house on a chickens foot. And in the story it would turn around. I must have been five years old!

Wizard new projection of the world To make “the wizard world” a reality. We need to address, where people first come across consumerism and the systems that foster the belief in consumerism. Then reflect on ,how consumerism impact our environment and our consciousness. Creating a better understanding of how the consumerism system works. Therefore being better equipped to dismantle the system. Where do we first come across consumerism? Christmas has evolved into consumerism salebration. Instead of an opportunity to give to less fortunate. As it was attended to be. People may argue otherwise but consumerism salebration is what most children pick up on. Since what child will resist free stuff. There are many thing that contribute to the maintenances of consumerism. Such as advertising, women magazines, business men and the education system. Advertising convince the human mind that more is best Women magazine attack the insecurities of woman and say shopping will fix it. Business defend consumerism. Education system is there to create a mindless working drone. (this a summery of my view on “Wizard new projection of the world”)

I came by your site by chance, and it is cool! I was wondering, could you maybe try to cast a spell for me? One that will protect me from bullies, and make sure that when I grow up I can have a nice life, and be in a time of peace and prosperity? I live in a small country in Europe, maybe you could focus some of your power there, and help me? The country is the Czech republic, if you see this and deide to help me, Mr. Archwizard. Oh, and I think all of the flamers and people that spam are just envious of you.

Hello Jack, I met you today and yesterday (the odd looking chap with the glasses, bad moustache and bleached orange hair) You're incredibly interesting, but there was a 9 month old German baby sitting in front of me, who I could fascinate by blowing my cheeks out; so I only listened to 95% of your talk. I'm starting a month long course at the University on Monday (I know I should be fishing, but tragically, I've never fished) so I won't be able to watch any more of your soap box based antics for a few weeks. Finger's crossed the weather's still good in April - may try my hand at orating, though it'll probably take a few tabs of acid to upstage you ;-) Take it easy, SBD

Even though our traitor media and Big Brother media are exposed as gaybos or mother's boys I mean very hard women and softy men and TV is child-abuse not child-support, as a result, our people are too far gone down the obese-diabetic- sugared-violence-fix-tv-addicted-big-car-big-oil-big-war- consumerism trail- Say Heil! to the New Fascists - ie all of us! But a sort of "she'll be right kiwi fascism". Only the Green Party rails against our SIS army invading Afghanistan, killing afghan people for oil and America's Drug Empire and giving out The Victoria Cross for it! And as usual calling the patriotic, invaded, injured, murdered afghan folk, evil "insurgents"! So now you recognise me Brian John Evans "The Talkback Terrorist of NZ" Hi my old friend.

While in Christchurch as part of the U.S. Navy's "Operation Deep Freeze" in the late 80's to early90's I remember spending many a pleasant afternoon listening to this amusing and highly educated gentleman speak on any and all subjects.

I was about 7 when I saw you phone god (amongst other things). 1975 or thereabouts. What a quandary for a kid. I thought a while that it was for real, then that it was make believe, then that you might be mental. Finally it struck me as art and the art was the questions created in my mind. Thank you for a lifetime of questions. You have been a great male role model. My parents had to drag me away and I pestered them for more for ages. When I studied anatomy I dyed my labcoat black with stars and crescents - at the same institution of your first official wizardship, oddly. I sang in rock bands for those magic moments of group mind. When I took up IT, it was consciously (partly) to perform mysterious wizarding acts. I'm currently engaged in the alchemy of creating money from nothing in the markets. I'll tell you if it works, but I suspect once I've had a good read here, there might be a new road round the corner. You're a hero.

Hi Wizard, Just a note on the first time you noticed the Australian tourist campaign 'so real its unreal' - I recall quite clearly in April 1994 seeing posters with this byline along with your image in the summit buildings of the Chch gondola. - Just so you know; I notice you mention it was October 1994 that you first noticed the campaign. Also from recollection it was a promotion managed by the Autralian Tourism Board - not 100% sure how the promo material got there but I distinctly remember it - mainly because I thought your image combined with a cheesy catchphrase just didn't ring true.

Message:
O Great Wizard, thank you for yourself.

Message:
@ Jacqui I was under the impression that he only spoke from November to Easter, no doubt due to a wizards robe probably being not that warm, so I expect November. My question for the wizard, is where can one learn the trade in the uk (if this is possible) and are there any wizard exam tricks you would be willing to divulge? Also kudos on being a bit different.

Message:
Hello Dear Wizard, You might want to watch this, an argument between your prophet Marshall Mcluhan and the novelist Norman Mailer. About thirty minutes worth of watching, and of some value. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23V9U_616aw&feature=related Your insights are enlightening. I agree with your notion that future prosperity and indeed survival lies with the Shaman. I also think that the shaman had significant sway in paleolithic history, would you agree? Respectfully, Johno

Lovely to see wizardry still has an official place in modern society. Instrumentalising interwebs for thy purposes is very good and don't mind the ones who need a lot of blingy stuffs and say thou oughtst to delete thy site for it was disturbing. Bling for the dim wits, cosmology for those who still know how to handle a paperback book =^___^= Living on an mainly silicate planet, I am pretty sure, it is just and reasonble to use "silicon generators" to transcede mankinds collective consciousness into a worldwide network, that, lately too, functions on basis of silicates. =^.^= Being connected, mankind could prosper beyond bling blings and vegetative, mere egologic, statements like, deletz itz, itz disturbingz mez. =^.~= I sense thou art not feeling well these days, hence I send thee my best wishes for thy health, wholesomely.

Dear collegue How do you find others to share common thoughts? As a practising Druid (No, not the white-Tablecloth over the head and mistletoe-munching, sickle-wielding kind of re-enacting Druid), I find it hard to find kindred spirits. Impostors and gurus as well as consuming followers are to be found behind every shrub (as you know), but as a follower of Aristotle and the old way, trained as a lic.phil. II, philosopher and publicist, I find it very hard to find people, who are interested in organizing a happy, sustainable living even for themselves, instead of consumerism. So I prefer to talk to trees (as the "Uncle Thain" or as you say "Tane Mahuta"). – No I am not nuts, but certified sane and quite happy – I just lack the opportunity of sharing thoughts with kind souls. If you are interested in sharing thoughts on the old way, or maybe grant me some seeds of your wisdom how to get connected, I would be happy if you stepped by on http://www.druidenwissen.ch or directly dropped me a line on .

I heard you speaking to Jim Mora on RNZ about your love of film especially those made during the silent era.
