—good evening and good morning, all in one merry tumble. I have looked in on you so to speak this morning, this afternoon and this evening, and with Ruburt’s permission. That is the reason for my bizarre greeting.

I knew of this, of course, at the time. However it does not serve any good purpose for me to knock Ruburt’s knuckles when an error of this kind is made. For one thing such errors are not numerous, nor really were these particular errors harmful. They were strong positive suggestions and as such they do sometimes serve a good purpose. In some cases they could actually bring such occurrences into reality through suggestion only.

This fact is responsible to a large degree for your death shock, and for the more powerful birth shock, when the new personality awakes to the prisonlike clutch of rigid camouflage pattern. Other levels have different and sometimes severe problems of a different type. One of the basic purposes of existence on your plane is to enable the personality to focus powerfully and to form basic vitality into creative pattern. Sometimes the lesson is learned too well. However, it is extremely difficult for personalities to learn to organize vitality well enough to give it form, and therefore some troubles are to be expected.
It is a giant step and a vital one, for without it the personality would be at the mercy so to speak of the very energy of which he is composed. He must learn to organize and command it, and your plane is one of the many where he gains practice and discipline in this respect. Otherwise you would have a willy-nilly chaotic arrangement, with the personality incapable of maintaining any discipline as far as his own chemical and electronic components were concerned.

It is one thing to recognize that your particular camouflage patterns are part of reality and another to realize that there is a reality that is independent of your camouflage patterns. One of my purposes is to enable you not only to recognize but experience this independent reality, and again the use of psychological time in a correct manner will be an invaluable aid.

(Jane’s voice now was practically normal. During our sessions we no longer kept the curtains drawn. After each turn through the living room, Jane had been pausing to look out one of our windows at the rather busy intersection of Water and Walnut Streets, one house away. Now as she dictated she remained at the window looking out.)

The inner experience of which I speak would not be frightening, although it would be frightening in the extreme if you were not prepared for it. The fact is that you would experience these other live things as if you were part of them. You would know them directly. No one would have to teach you about the oneness of all living things, or the brotherhood of man. The lesson would be instantaneous and complete.

As far as these drugs are concerned there are a few points I would like to make. One of your purposes as I have said is to learn to organize energy units and to focus your own energy along those lines. That is, you are the energy that you use. The self-consciousness is not to be blotted out but taken along. It is so to speak to walk side by side with the inner self.

—and this time we have no distortion but a simple mistake I believe in notes. I certainly did not say what I have just seen through Ruburt’s eyes. The error is in one word; not fluent but “inner.” The outer senses are not as fluent as the inner. For some reason the word was either mistaken or transposed, I do not know. The outer senses dealing with rigid camouflage patterns could not be as fluent as the inner senses.

(“It’s the only one like it that I’m conscious of at the moment.”)

No, for purely personal reasons I have my own way of conducting lessons, and I prefer to deal with one instance at a time. I am trying to keep this explanation simple, since the term “at a time” is somewhat misleading.

At the same time these personalities had to be disciplined and intuitive. These personality requirements are not easy to find; plus the fact that they had to be well balanced and intelligent, at least for my purposes. I did not want to just fill a vessel. Such was not my intention. I wanted a give and take between myself on one plane and you on another.

That is a beautiful question. How long did it take you to spring that one on me?

Science is apt to turn into another religion, if it has not done so already. Any fanaticism is truly vicious, one-sided, limiting, and causes an alarming shrinkage of focus that is explosive and dangerous. And I will have more to say about that later.

There you go again. In one way I have been where I am going all the time. However it was a good try.
