You did not want to project, per se. You wanted to be here to offer reassurance. The desire got you here. Your conscious mind was taken up fully with your activities, giving the inner self full rein. In the same way do you travel in other realities without being aware of your journeys. You were not frightened, either of you, because of the familiar surroundings, and you were unusually free to express your feelings for each other, released from restraints of time.

If you try to do this from a dream state then you must set aside two and one-half hours, for the first portion will be used as preliminaries. You can also give yourselves such suggestions before you sleep. You might begin by making an appointment to meet each other, say at three in the morning in the living room.

For your own purposes an unfinished painting on your easel would help you project to your studio, for you would psychically wish to return to study it. You have in fact often done this, though you do not remember. It would be to your advantage to try some experiments together however. Besides this the two of you travelling together could help each other retain proper consciousness and purpose during projection. If Ruburt knows he is projecting he should try to remember you, and to rouse you astrally.

He can be of great help to you here when he learns to remember. You can also suggest dreams in which you are flying in an airplane, and tell yourself you will awaken to project. You will know the plane is a dream image but be able to retain it for your convenience, so that you do not fear falling.

Give us a moment. (Pause.) In such instances you are withdrawing your perceptive abilities from the physical body. They will seem to operate as usual, but they are more vivid and far-reaching. Your thoughts instantly attain a form that you can then perceive. If you think of a dog for example, quite unconsciously you form the image of a dog, which you do then perceive.

Now. The original intensity behind the construction determines the length of its existence, in your terms, rather than the duration. Do you follow me?

The first object must be seen as completely destroyed, and the area cleared before the new object is imagined in its place. The first object should be deliberately destroyed. What relief to see it vanish. The symbolism will help activate those forces that are necessary in any replacement of ideas. Any object you see can be used in place of the house. Do you follow me?

This is entirely different from Ruburt’s attempt with his creature, for he was trying to form an evil creature, in those terms, to slay—a thing conscious of its own evil in those terms, and that is always dangerous. Do you see the difference?

The energy from any construction can be weakened if it is countered by another strong energy force. The desire to work well, enthusiastically and emotionally held, can offset bad health for example. You do not need the direct opposite. Do you follow me?
