(Before the session we talked about the firewalker’s performance on the recent Alan Neuman show. I remarked that the seeming violation of physical laws posed serious challenges to science, and so forth. We’ve been educated to believe that if the flesh is touched by fire as hot as that in the pit, that flesh will inevitably be burned; yet it wasn’t.)

Now: apropos of your firewalker, fire of that temperature would indeed burn the flesh if it touched it in your practical reality.

Our firewalker turns off the fire—for himself, however, though its form, like the turned-off light bulb, remains. His faith is the power that neutralizes the fire.

You live in a world of root assumptions, to which all agree. They are the ground rules of your reality—but not the ground rules of all realities or of all probabilities. Your firewalker inserts another probability, and hence reacts to and with that reality of the fire in ways that are not considered normal. I have said his feet touch the ground but not the flames. Actually, what I can only call an invisible shield protects him from the flames, so that his feet and ankles are surrounded by an aura that repels the fire actively. This is a definite force, a psychic force field, if you will. This ability is quite ancient, though little known.

They program the interactions within the body, so that certain effects always appear inevitable, when such in basic terms is not always the case, necessarily. You can intrinsically walk on fire, or thrust your hands into the flames, and be unburned. I would not suggest that too many try it, however. The mind and its beliefs are the basic determinants. That firewalker shares his reality with nonfirewalkers, in general terms, but in this one instance the firewalker superimposes a strong counterbelief, and it works

The rules of physics are no more than gentlemen’s rules of the game but the firewalker plays a different game, with different rules, and they work also.

Give us a moment.... In Framework 2, as mentioned, existence is also organized in a completely different fashion than you are used to. In that Framework, the best possible overall conditions for growth are available. Your firewalker seems to be breaking a natural law. He is simply acting according to another belief, but he is being true to his nature, which in this case led him to the desire for such an achievement. In Framework 2, therefore, the nature of each individual actively seeks out its own greatest potential, in the world of Framework 1, practically speaking, in the world where time and space are realities.
