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.

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.

We are scarcely beginning our work. It will grow through the years, and we shall achieve much. We shall in probability continue it in other existences. (Smile.) Basically however you see perception has nothing to do with the outer senses at all. These are dim receivers at best. Some of your dreams tell you far more about the nature of reality than the most vivid physical experience.
