Now: as I believe I have told you often, your creativity is one of your best clues as to how you operate, yourselves, in inner reality.

(9:13.) A child may think “We will go to sleep now”—meaning quite happily that (pause) its own single consciousness also participates in the conscious life and activities of everything else in its environment, so it and the creatures of the night, say, sleep together, and waken together to greet the dawn. In such a way the child actively participates in the consciousness of nature—and I am not speaking of an imaginative or symbolic participation alone, but of an awareness of the multiplicity within itself and of other creatures.

(Very long pause at 9:37.) Give us a moment.... The creative abilities in one way or another deal with the us-ness, with the inner intersections that everywhere occur within the most singular seeming aspects of your reality. The creative abilities join the creator and created (long pause) in a behavior in which for example, now, the painting that is to be affects the creator of it before its inception and before its form, so that the two are connected in a kind of behavior in which at deeper levels the ideas of cause and effect can have no meaning. The painting-to-be pushes against the awareness of its creator (all intently).

Now there are important insights in tonight’s material particularly for Ruburt, but for you also, for it is that inner feeling of contact and awareness that is so amazingly productive in the creation of art and in the creation of any physical aspects that you want to change in the physical world.
