Now. The inner self has a much richer and deeper heritage than the intellect or ego. Its perceptions are of a different nature, varying particularly in scope and depth. (Long pause.)

(Pause.) True and basic perception is a highly complicated phenomena, in which the line between perceiver and perceived vanishes. There is a strong correlation in what happens when the medium feels that a surviving personality has taken over the personality itself.

The information contained therein in such bulky printed form, is not physical. It is a matter of knowledge, electromagnetically coded, psychically valid, but you cannot hold knowledge in your hand and perceive it directly. You take its usual transmission in daily life for granted, overlooking the fact that all the physical aspects of its transmission and appearance serve to hide its basic non-materiality, and that words and printed data and moving pictures, all visual or physical symbols, are not the knowledge itself. These only serve as physical carriers. (Long pause.)

Give us a moment. (Pause.) The brain is capable (underlined)of interpreting and transmitting far more inner information than it does. It is the ego’s idea of what is possible, the ego’s concept of reality, that determines in a large manner whether or not the brain will interpret any particular data.

You remember this from our material on action and the personality. The ego therefore is pleased when information is proven correct. (Long pause.) If the nature of perception were clearly understood then the nature of reality as you know it would also be understood much more clearly. Only half the process of perception, so-called, is even considered, however. Only half of the circle is known. The entire circle consists of those projections outward that form events, as well as the mechanisms by which the events are then physically perceived.
