Now you form the physical image that you know unconsciously. Because you see it in a mirror and experience its reality you take it for granted that it is real. Even our friend, Edgar, believes that he has a physical body. As I told you I have some difficulty at times explaining to my own friends that you so believe such a hallucination is real. There are other portions of your reality also formed by your thoughts and emotions however, that are not so obvious to you. You are not aware of them and so you do not accept them as a portion of your own experience and yet they do exist. I am not referring now simply to probable selves. I am referring to what you may call freewheeling energy that you release filled with your own intent and emotional coloration which has a reality in other spheres beside your own. This reality acts within the physical fear though its main existence is not within it. It has therefore an electromagnetic effect within your system although you cannot perceive it physically. It is a psychological reality or a psychic one if you prefer. Now each of you, to some extent or another, build up such forms as you may refer to them. They are conscious. All form has consciousness. You give birth to them automatically. They are a product of your own psychic and mental and psychological activity and so they exist whether or not you perceive them. They are extensions of you from your point of view. They can almost be considered as extra perceptive mechanisms that exist apart from the physical one. They formed through concentrations of energy. Now when you use all of your energy to manipulate in the physical reality there is little left to form such images. When you learn through relaxation to accept life spontaneously and to trust to your own inner being then this energy is released. You become, therefore, more effective.

But energy forms depend upon strong, very powerful concentrations of energy whether thought or emotion is involved. These are in your terms, excesses of energy that shoot out from you like stars but coalesce into a shape and a form. They are usually the result of, in your terms, a long term build up of energy although the same effect can be reached by one extremely powerful image or thought. There is however a difference. Now I have always referred to myself as a personality energy essence because it was true and also because it sounded very safe to Ruburt. You could not argue against it. He did not have to say that I said I was a spirit or I was some sort of a White God or that I was an illuminati. The term was simple and he could accept it. It is a lovely term if I do say so myself. I will stick with it always. I will see that Ruburt puts it in his introduction.
