Moments of my life
Lecturer:
I started giving conferences being very young.
Here, not so young, opening the Conference on Parapsychology
(Puerta de Toledo, Madrid), 90s.
On first row, Mariví Dominguín, always encouraging me.
Among the numerous courses I've taught, during the years 1987-1991 I taught classes and was pupil simultaneously in the courses "Pensamiento y Ciencia Contemporánea" ("Contemporary Thought and Science") organised and directed by doctor María Eugenia Rincón (as she quotes in her book "Sofia of Spain, a Woman", Editorial Safeliz, Madrid 1998), for H.M. the Queen Sofia, sharing classes with Octavio Paz, Julián Marías, F. Mayor Zaragoza, Roger Garaudí, Carlos París, etc.
In the aforementioned book, dr. Rincón tells about this with her marvellous style in chapter 24 "with the Queen at the Queen's Fountain." Here I include pictures that were given and dedicated to me (one of all those dedications that I remember with special affection reads "For Dr. Octavio Aceves, in remembrance of the day trip on July 20th 1988. Signed María Eugenia Rincón. Pensamiento y Ciencia Contemporánea").
