(Coupled with all of these things is the three-part article we’re reading in The New Yorker on the travails of publishing these days; the large sums involved, books being treated as “products,” etc. According to that information, we’re so far out of it in any meaningful way that we’re left feeling quite inadequate. On the other hand, we haven’t forgotten Seth’s recent material about our being protected—and I for one really think that’s true. It does take an effort to keep it in mind at times, though. It’s also made it quite difficult for me to whip up any enthusiasm about getting back to work on the notes for Seth’s Dreams. I’d just gotten nicely into that project when the disclaimer business started over Mass Events—it seems like months ago; actually, this may be the third month following the interruption, an incredible gap in creativity, for which I blame Prentice, no doubt about it.

These include emotional processes, of course, mental ones, emotional ones, and constant transformation of energy from one form into another. Your stomach cannot read. What you read, however, is in one way or another translated into other terms, so that for example your stomach reacts in its way to your reading matter, as the visual information is translated into other terms.
