The inner senses allow you to follow some of these actions into other realities. The moment point on the one hand is of course a minute division of action. On the other hand it is an entrance into unknown possibilities and new dimensions. As you probe into any given moment point, you automatically become a part of it and change it accordingly as it makes its impressions upon you. These interchangings occur on many levels: psychologically, chemically, electromagnetically, psychically.

And this is just on the physical level.
