Now. An inverted time system actually presents us with a system that more closely approximates the true nature of time. Time does indeed turn in upon itself, even as it explodes outward from itself. The expanding universe theory applies much more truly to time than it does to the physical universe. You think of a steady progression into the future. However, as you know there is no real progression, moment by successive moment, as you suppose.

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.

I seem to pick up a similarity somewhere between Dr. Instream and the student involved—a similarity in name, I do not know. He believes and expects success in his hypnosis experiments, and that is why he attains success. We shall however achieve what we want.

This is all a process of learning. Relaxation in the hour before sessions will help. We are trying to work on two levels here. We want success of course, but we also want to know how success is achieved, and so we shall.
