My greeting to Marleno, and my sympathy to Ruburt as he struggles to plow through his Dunne.

Other portions of the self, on the one hand, are not so limited. It must be clearly understood however that these other portions of the self are incapable of the ego’s intense focus within physical reality. Their focus is elsewhere. However, these selves are not limited as is the ego to one main field of perception only, in the manner which Dunne believes. Dunne does leave intervening areas between dimensions which may be perceived by an observer from a neighboring dimension, but all in all his serial selves are to some large degree prisoners of those dimensions in which they exist.

A carpeted hall outside the door; and it seems an overnight guest, who has in his possession a leatherlike bag that is not a suitcase, but meant to hold papers. (Pause.) Light brown, fairly new in appearance, having I believe about its edges brass or gold colored bands of some sort. The initial C connected with the owner of the bag, and also perhaps a G, though I am not certain of this last letter.

This has to do with two separate principles. First of all there was a retention of image. Second of all, there was quite separately an association because of the size of the card given as test object. In the second case the association was Ruburt’s, for on his own he picked up a file-card image, but he translated this into the image of a box in which such file cards are often kept.

Now while this association was his own, it was caused by the image retention carrying over from the first test. I want it clear that two rather than one causes existed for this second box image or impression.

Actually it was fairly legitimate, but not carried far enough on Ruburt’s part. In this case he did very well in closing off his own associations.

Now when he does so disconnect his own stream of consciousness in this manner, any correct associations on his part will automatically show themselves in the data through attraction. They will become incorporated with my data in a constructive fashion. This is fairly important, and we shall follow it up by examples when possible. For I will perceive certain types of information that are basic, and when Ruburt’s abilities, his own abilities as apart from mine, are fully developed, then he will be able to add certain specifics that have direct personal application.
