If Ruburt misses sessions and then feels guilty about doing so, little is gained and the regularity is also lost. I suggest therefore that you hold six weeks of sessions as always at your regular time, then feel free to miss a week with my blessing and your own, and then begin another six-week schedule.

The analogy may be a poor one in that it says so little, and yet it will be helpful in giving you the idea. Instead of nouns for example you would have the shape of the ever-moving pattern, instead of a verb the pulsation of the color, or rather of its transmission. Instead of a time sequence of tenses, which they would not need, you have the intensities and depths of color.

In psychological time therefore it is at least possible that you can have some experience with other methods when you close off habitual methods of perception. The ego is firmly attached to the use of the physical senses, however. In the dream state there can also be other methods at least slightly experienced.

Now. There are indeed a body of symbols that are more or less basic within all kinds of perception—bridgeworks from one form of perception to another, since beneath all perceiving systems there is consciousness. Certain symbols therefore will have meaning. I do not see any particular purpose in giving these to you now, but at some time I will do so. (Long pause.)

The intellect forces you to interpret data in a highly specialized way for the use of the physical organism; and while adopted particularly because of the time structure, your kind of intellect only has value within your particular kind of time structure, and its type of logical thought is much slower and limiting. It moves at a snail’s pace along the line of consecutive time.

The emotional intellect for example is not time-oriented, and this alone makes no sense to the physical brain. It finds it highly difficult to assimilate any information not time-oriented, therefore it labels it as meaningless. Now this information is helpful to your development, and we shall continue to discuss it, for you can to some degree, with my aid, understand how this emotional intellect works if you try to understand the material intuitively, use your imagination with it, and try to feel it out.

At the end of our next session (smile) after I have delivered the evening’s material, I will devote some time to explaining Ruburt’s figure of lights. Now my best wishes to you both. Remember my suggestion given earlier, and positively enjoy a week’s vacation after six weeks of session.
