Now you are dealing with methods that have been known through the ages and other civilizations than your own have learned them, some have mastered them. You will not progress individually or as a race until you realize that you form your own physical reality from your thoughts and feelings, and that you can manipulate matter through you mind because your mind creates it. Alpha I is a very simple method of learning to control physical matter through realizing that you do yourselves make it and can direct its flow and direct the energy available to it.

What you do in Alpha I, in healing, is already what you do unconsciously without realizing that you do so. You manipulate your own inner organs constantly. Your thoughts form their reality, cause their illness or their health, and in Alpha I you do this at a level of awareness that you can recognize. Until you learn to manipulate the world that you know, and constructively and creatively, you will not be able to manipulate the inner realities in which you already live but instead will be swept merely within them.

Now in Alpha I you can step aside from your daily self and let the knowledge of your deeper identity rise up where it can be recognized and accepted and acknowledged and its abilities used. You can, with training, feel the miraculous knowledge and heritage that is within your atoms and molecules, be aware of the capsule consciousness within them for they have a knowledge of all the other life forms of which they have been part, and this you can admit to your consciousness.

Now and I will close my Ruburt’s eyes, so that no one knows to whom I am speaking. Under certain drug experiments, and experiences, the memories within the selves rise up and shout. The structure within the neurons is no longer a dead thing but the structure is a reality that speaks; and the reality speaks quite loudly in terms of heritage, of experiences encountered long before your physical form knew itself. You perceive realities of which the physical form is aware, but the ego is unaware. Now these realities can become a part of your awareness without drugs. You do not need them. You need merely to admit the vitality of your own consciousness. It is your own.

Now I would not force you into any state of awareness, far be it from me. You are all in Alpha I, and I did not force you into it. Now bear with me for a few moments, realizing as you do so that there is in reality no distinction between the atoms and molecules within your precious bodies and the atoms and molecules that fly about the room quite innocently and free; realizing also that there is great space between the atoms and molecules within your body, and that if some very small person were flying through they would find your bodies as large as a galaxy; realizing also that the skin that seems so solid to you is very open, indeed, and does not separate you so much from the universe, as it connects you with the universe; and that there is little division between the atoms and molecules in those knees and those legs and the atoms and molecules that form the floor upon which the legs and knees seem to rest.

You are hypnotized, and you hypnotize yourselves daily, to believe there is only one reality, the physical one that you know and so I would call it, you see, a state of being—hypnotization, where you are freed from a compulsive demanding focus upon physical reality, and where your consciousness is allowed some freedom to pursue its own nature. Where you are to some extent if only momentarily, released from the compulsion to experience your own reality in terms of time and matter and physical form.
