[...] The same kind of activity occurs in the child’s dream state as it learns to handle events before they are physically encountered. [...] Some dream events are more real to the child than some waking events are — not because the child does not understand the nature of experience, but because he or she is still so close to the emotional basis behind events. Some of the exercises I will suggest will put you in touch with the way events are formed.
[...] Yet symbols are simply examples of other kinds of quite “objective” events. They are events that are what they seem to be, and they are equally events that do not “immediately” show themselves. One so-called event, therefore, may be a container of many others, while you only perceive its exterior face — and you call that face a symbol.
[...] Dream events “come together” in the same way that the universe does. Events, therefore, cannot be precisely defined. You can explore your own experience of an event, and that exploration itself alters the nature of the seemingly separate event that you began to investigate. [...]
[...] You are the physical event of yourself put into a given space and time, and because of the conditions of that framework, within it you automatically exclude other experience of your own selfhood. The greater event of yourself exists in a context that is beyond your usual perception of events. [...]
The formation of events is initially an emotional, psychic, or psychological function. Events are physical interpretations, conventionalized versions of inner perceptive experiences that are then “coalesced” in space and time. Events are organized according to laws that involve love, belief, intent, and the intensities with which these are entertained.
Again, the events that you perceive come packaged in time sequences, so that you are used to a certain kind of before-and-after order. [...] It may seem that psychological events have the same kind of structure, since after all you do perceive them in time.
When you ask: “How are events formed?” you more or less expect an answer couched in those terms. [...] The origin of events lies in that creative, subjective realm of being with which you are usually least concerned. [...]
The other events within the symbol are as legitimate as the one event you perceive.
Basically, events are not built one upon the other. They grow out of each other in a kind of spontaneous expansion, a profusion of creativity, while the conscious mind chooses which aspects to experience — and those aspects then become what you call an objective event.
Events are attracted or repelled by you according to your loves, beliefs, intents, and purposes. Your world provides a theater in which certain events can or cannot occur. [...]
