They are equipped to focus along particular directions. This material will be extremely interesting when we come to it. It is extremely difficult for a psychological structure to view itself, for in order to do so it must lift itself from the limitations and abilities of its own nature. In many realities such scrutiny is simply impossible, while the structure operates in a given fashion.

Gradually psychological structures are able to focus upon vaster areas, and in order to achieve proficiency in this manner you do indeed begin to build up layered selves that have been independent identities. These varying perceptive abilities organize so that their perceptive powers are pooled in a gestalt that eventually forms a new identity, a more complicated psychological structure that is capable of perceiving larger areas of reality.

I am speaking now of course of both of you. That is, each of you should by now be aware of such an emerging psychological unit. It is the result of your ability to step out of your own system to some small extent, for you cannot do this until you are ready. For the very attempt, or successful attempt, results in an extension of the self out of the system in which you were nurtured.

Contrary to popular thought, while everyone has so-called psychic abilities, they must be trained in specific areas of accomplishment. This is what we are doing.
