Now, you must try to stretch your imagination and to feel these realities because the intellect alone cannot comprehend them. Now, psychological time is your best method for perceiving these actualities. You can feel what you cannot necessarily describe verbally, and know through direct experience what even the physical brain cannot describe nor comprehend, for you are more than the physical brain that you have now. I am no poet but then thinking of one of Ruburt’s poems, then think of the brain, indeed, as a web you form about the inner self. A web works to help you manipulate in a world of space and time which is, indeed, as nebulous and as precarious, and as delicate, as any spider’s web, and hangs indeed in as precarious a balance. You form this and then perceive the world, but your viewpoint is very small and the garden you perceive very intimate, but within yourself you have far greater abilities of perception and you are not limited to Wednesday or Thursday.

(To Theodore) And sometime, for example, you will be able to travel through your tapestry and realize they are illustrations, as indeed you do, but realize it more vividly so you can experience the reality behind them.

I do not know what to do with you. We learned what spices would do way before the present generation got hung up on grass, and we sniffed oregano on the high seas, and we got high on the high seas sniffing oregano. We brought spices up to Denmark, and we had delightful trips, indeed. We also explored and we went down as far as Africa, and then we came back to the fine provincial people in Denmark and sold them the spices that we had left. I was quite a gourmet.

Now, Ruburt will not get his cigarette again, you see. In our sessions I have explained something that I have not mentioned in class and it is this— for every moment of time that you seem to exist in this universe, you do not exist in it. The atoms and molecules have a pulsating nature that you do not usually perceive so what seems to you to be a continuous atom or molecule is, indeed, a series of pulsations that you cannot keep track of. Physical matter is not permanent. You only perceive it as continuous. You cannot perceive the series of pulsations that make it up. Your perceptive mechanisms are not equipped to perceive it.

They are, indeed. You cannot conceivably perceive them. Now, in certain conditions, however, the inner self abandoning its usual reliance upon the physical senses is aware of these periods that would seem to you to be negations.

It is, indeed, in this existence and these nonmoments are moments in another dimension of reality.

It may, indeed, if you like the analogy.

There are, indeed, and the whole self is aware of all of these realities. Now you know yourselves, with no unkindness meant, your own weaknesses and failures, so why should you suppose that the self that you know is the only self that you are. Surely, it has occurred to you that you have abilities that you are not using. Surely, it has occurred to you that there were other realities connected with your innermost existence that were not being expressed in the existence that you know of.

You can, indeed. The mirror is a very good method and the answer to both questions is yes.

You can, indeed. It will help you also, if you realize your reincamational selves are not lost and locked away in some past that is dim and inaccessible.

It is, indeed, and they would not perceive your existence here, for them it would be a noninterval.

It is, indeed, and some evening I will tell you that you had better change your entire conception of the word lives and this is the first hint I have given, either in our private sessions, or in this one, of some rather important material, but think of what you mean when you use the word life, or lives, and see how limited it really is.

Indeed, except that in this focus in which you are now involved, you are not focusing on the full potential of your vitality.

Indeed, you experienced it, however, in a physical manner to make the idea plain to you. You imagined, for example, a heartbeat pulse of that nature simply to bring the idea home to you. You can skip between these beats, you see. Now, the beats altogether make a pattern simultaneously and the pattern is the entity.
