You need not experience those past dream events, although if you just turn your attention in that direction then the dream’s past will become apparent. Mental impressions of any kind therefore are not simply imprinted, or written, as it were, in a medium of space and time. They have a greater dimensionality. The past and future ripple outward from any event, making it “thicker” than it appears to be.

While discussing probabilities in the 565th session for Chapter 16 of that book he said. “Each mental act opens up a new dimension of actuality. In a manner of speaking, your slightest thought gives birth to worlds.”⁸ I also found an opportunity to insert the same lines in Chapter 10 of Personal Reality; see the 641st session.

Again, your idea of personhood limits you when you think of these concepts. You imagine personhood to be a kind of mental particle that must have definite boundaries, or it will lose its identity. The identity of even the smallest consciousness is always maintained — but not limited. If you can think of your present idea of identity as if it were but one shape or one motion of a moving particle, a shape or a motion that never loses its imprint or meaning, then you could also see how you could follow it forward or backward to the shape or motion taken “before or afterward.”
