Such subjective events therefore manipulate physical matter through the personality who experiences them. The field of reality for any given personality must and does include all these areas of activity, for they give form and dimension to his existence. I have said earlier that the individual could not exist in a physical universe if he did not also exist in the dream universe. Again, there are chemical and electromagnetic connections that cannot be severed between all these states of consciousness.

There is a chemical necessity, as I have said, that makes dreaming inevitable. But then these dreams in turn affect the personality in general, and affect the actions of that personality in a physical universe. It goes without saying that telepathy operates within the dreaming state quite as effectively as it operates while the individual is awake. In the waking state it operates subconsciously. But in all times there is no boundary, generally speaking, that exists to separate one psychological unit from another. There are differences between psychological units, and you concentrate upon these differences. Nevertheless one man’s dreams affect another’s, and that man is in turn affected by the dreams of his neighbor.

I am not speaking, now, of some nebulous indirect fashion. A man is affected by the dreams of his fellows in quite definite, realistic and practical ways. He is affected by them both chemically and electromagnetically, and he in turn also affects others in the same manner.
