[...] It is a process of self-discovery. [...]

[...] This is the way the book of poetry that I finished early in March, Dialogues of the Soul and Mortal Self in Time, began.

[...] Yet beneath, the inner self is quite aware of the great thrusting creativity that occurs in dreams, and realizes that the source of individual energy has nothing to do with such superficial concepts as the nature of good and evil.

You have what you may think of then as a split action, where one portion of the self, the inner ego, is allowed to travel through the other states of action that compose the whole self, purposefully as a director, and retain the knowledge thereby received.

[...] Later on, using self -hypnosis, you can experiment to see whether or not you weigh less when you suggest that you will become lighter and lighter.

[...] There are obviouslyconnections between the psychic and physical self, and there is no reason why you should not begin to investigate these for yourselves.

Ideally that force is to a large extent self-protecting. [...]

In a capsule: Self-disapproval. [...]

[...] (Pause.) Personalities strongly (underlined) given to the need for self-punishment will consistently misinterpret such information, or any information.

[...] The ego will simply be bypassed, but the other layers of the self, the neurological structures particularly, will continue to operate as always. [...]

[...] So Peg is rearranging the furniture of her mind; and as you might visit a new residence and move some of your belongings into it before you have officially made it your own, so she has for some time been examining her new environment, and been in tie process of transferring her self to the new location.

[...] So she sees him as the self that he knows, and also as the people he has been, and already looks upon him with new eyes.

[...] For one thing, men who perform seemingly evil acts but who believe those acts to be right and justified, can be carried along in relative safety for some time before their errors catch up with them, because the power of their own self-approval is so strong.

This does not mean that they will not face consequences, but their self-approval provides a sturdy rudder that holds them often aloft, where most men might perhaps be drowning in the same circumstances. [...]

[...] While your religions are built around an enduring kernel of truth, the symbolism used was craftily selected by the inner self in line with its knowledge of those root assumptions you hold as valid in the physical universe. [...] The symbolism itself, however, was simply used by the inner self. [...]

[...] Remember he is to trust the inner self. [...]

[...] This gives the inner self freedom. [...]

(To Doug.) I want you to know that you are on the right track and that you can trust your spontaneous self. [...]

[...] You can only get glimpses of truth and you can only understand and interpret these glimpses if you trust your inner self and your intuitions. [...]

[...] You had to realize that a certain amount of spirituality was necessary if the inner psychic self would grow. [...]

His circumstances of birth made it difficult for him to overindulge in the rich things of life, although his present mother used rich foods as compensation for other things, and this example opened Ruburt’s eyes and actually started him on the road to self-discipline.

[...] The trouble in the past has been a lack of discretion and self-discipline. [...]

Killing except for self-protection will be paid for. [...]

Both involve culminations formed by various levels of the self, and yet are impressed into the physical organism. They must be registered by the physical self in one way or another, if the information is to become at all conscious.

[...] Some impressions however have their origin within inner reality, and the personality is receiving information not available to the egotistical self. [...]

[...] Both are methods of bringing deep knowledge closer to the realms of the egotistical self.

I may return briefly, but in any case I do now activate those coordinates that do increase feelings of self-love, exuberance, and well-being.

[...] For you both again, I activate those coordinates that quicken your own inspirations, revelations, and self-healing.

(10:50.) If you think, however, that the self as you know it is the end or summation of yourself, then you also imagine your soul to be a limited entity bounded by its present ventures in one life alone, to be judged accordingly after death on the performance of a few paltry years.

[...] While the inner self is aware of this connection, the present self has been fooling itself to some degree, for it did not accept the intuitional knowledge. [...]

[...] I said it was beside the point—but beyond that it is somewhat self-defeating. [...]

I mention this so often because, again, I do not want either of you to become self-righteous, for such an attitude narrows any road. [...]

[...] Each atom and molecule contains, as I have said, a generalized consciousness, in which all of the basic laws are known, and also a limited but definite self-awareness.

This self-awareness in each atom and molecule determines what sort of cell or combination that the particular atom or molecule will form. [...]

[...] My second self answered a question I had asked: “Why certainly, don’t you see how it works by now?” or words to that effect. [...]

(“The reason why some lose-weight groups succeed in their therapy, at least momentarily, is that belief in the worth of the self is stressed. [...]
