Any perception of any kind instantly alters the electromagnetic and neurological systems of the perceiver. In your terms, physically, that is what perception is—an alteration of neurological structure. The perceiving mechanisms themselves change and are changed by that which they perceive, and I am speaking now of your physical system, and the physical nature of any perception.

It is literally impossible for you, and it is a logistic contradiction to imagine, with your physical structures, that any perception can be received unless the perceiver’s own inner situation is altered. I am trying to make it as clear as possible that information automatically blends with, is intermingled with, and enmeshed with, the entire (pause), physically-valid (hyphen) structure of the personality.

Fear will often sensitize individuals however, so that fear for a loved one will bring about clairvoyant knowledge of a disaster. They are not concerned over joyful events, you see, and do not therefore as easily perceive these clairvoyantly.

To a large extent you are what you perceive, and not symbolically. I forgot your fingers—

Now. (Pause.) Information does not exist as I have told you independently of consciousness. There is not therefore any particular event, say an automobile accident, that exists independently of the consciousnesses of those involved in it, for a given perceiver to perceive.

In your terms therefore I can be in many places at once, and conscious of so being. It does not mean that I am less in one place than another. (Pause.) Now in some way that you are not ready, or should I say able, to understand as yet, I help Ruburt to perceive clairvoyant information more clearly, in that I help to direct the kinds of alterations that occur within his neurological structure.

I do this for him in many instances. (Pause.) What I perceive(smile) is still dependent upon my own identity. It cannot be otherwise for any consciousness. In your terms I help keep to a minimum distortions which might otherwise occur as Ruburt’s own mood or circumstances might otherwise misinterpret.

We will have more to say concerning the nature of perception, and the ways in which such information is perceived and used.

Now I tell you that while the perceiver is changed by what he perceives, he also changes that which is perceived. Perceiver and perception, in a basic manner, are one and the same. Here we come close to the meaning of value fulfillment and moment points.
