This response to fear is a danger to psychic work, where freedom is necessary. In projections most of all the self must be mobile. Rapidity of perception, mobility of consciousness, openness of emotional response, are prerequisites for our work. The fearful spirit fears to leave the body, and fears to reside in it also. Ruburt has my congratulations, for he has now successfully passed a period of trial. He tried without involving you except when he grew more than usually discouraged.

The inner senses are an attribute of consciousness. The outer senses make this information meaningful to the physical organism, and the body consciousness, the ego. This is for Ruburt’s book.

Only some of the data in projections is thus translated. Now, it is possible but difficult to catch your own consciousness in the act of its own natural perception, before impressions become crystallized in physical terms. Even the survival personality must translate perception into terms it can understand.

None of us are ever equipped, for general purposes, to perceive reality in all of its forms. The pyramid gestalts can do this, and we help the pyramid gestalts perform this feat. But as a rule we must pick and choose. There is too much for any consciousness to digest except those so highly developed that even I know little of them.

You are at the point of a new and higher plateau. (Jane pointed at me, eyes wide open and dark.) You have not yet reached it however. It has taken you this time to consolidate your gains, and you have helped Ruburt these months also. The interaction between you results you see in a higher form of consciousness, for which both of you are responsible. For you do indeed operate as a gestalt also. Your joint abilities add up to more than your joint abilities.
