You cannot deny the normal coming of night by refusing to face it, and closing the outer eyes would only result in those very characteristics of night which the self tried to avoid. Nor would the pleasant characteristics of night be ever known, but night would forever mean terror and chaos, since it would never be given the recognition due it, and never explored.

Because of its relative freedom, however, the self, returning from the dream world, can impart to the individual knowledge of much the physical self could not ordinarily be aware. Much of this knowledge, then, resides in the subconscious while the ego goes on its way.

As awareness develops, so do the abilities develop that enable the whole self to handle ever-varying data, and therefore to manipulate it and function within the perspective of its meaning. There are—

As you know, camouflage elements are formed from the vital energy, which itself forms of itself all dimensions and all realities. It exists within all camouflage, since the camouflage itself is merely the form that is adopted. The inhabitants of any dimension, or whatever makeup, are still whole-self constructions.

The whole self as you know has its existence in uncamouflaged energy, and is therefore capable of the assimilation of knowledge in so far as it can, if it chooses, be basically unaffiliated to any one camouflage dimension or perspective. In actual practice this takes a supreme development, but even for general purposes the inner self retains a freedom from camouflage perspectives, and is aware in varying degrees of other perspectives, and of its existence outside of them.

Through the inner senses, therefore, some enlightenment can be received as to both the actual existence of dimensions that the physical self cannot perceive; and also through the inner senses, a sense of confidence and continuity can be achieved through the inner self’s knowledge of its freedom.
