Now when your attitude began to change, it changed first on a subconscious level. Consciously you were not aware of the change. [...]

I believe this change for the better, or this possibility of change, is due to an upspurt on the part of the student, a mood change that can be taken advantage of. [...]

I want to make this clear, for it should help you both to understand your reactions, and to change them accordingly. [...]

You wrote recently that to some extent or another your daily reality was being changed by your dream recall—an excellent point. Perhaps that idea can give you some glimmering of the ways in which the daily events of your readers’ lives are changed as a result of our sessions. [...]

[...] Remember, however, that your responses may change at different times. [...]

[...] (Pause.) Such a change in your waking and sleeping patterns very nicely helps cut through your habitual ways of looking at the nature of your own personal world, and so alters your conception of reality in general.

[...] But changed wake-sleep habits can, again, bring about a transformation in which it is obvious that dreams contain great wisdom and creativity, that the unconscious is indeed quite conscious, and that in fact the individual sense of identity can be retained in the dream state. [...]

(Pause.) Mammals have also changed their habits to accommodate those conditions you have thrust upon them, so the behavior studied in laboratories is not necessarily that shown by the same animals in their natural state.

It cuts you off from the spontaneous give-and-take of conscious and unconscious material mentioned earlier (in this session), and of itself you see necessitates certain changes that then make your prolonged sleep period necessary (intently). [...]

If new ambrya—think of embryo now—(in parentheses now:) data were to be inserted into a painting, a completed painting, from the inside, then all the relationships within the painting would change. If new ambrya is inserted into a physical montella then all the relationships within it must change. [...]

Now, the information given automatically changes the nature of the probability that was foreseen, for in that probability no forewarning had occurred. [...]

[...] Knowing the impressions alters the probability further, and taking the steps that I have given still further changes the probabilities. [...]

Other elements have also changed. [...]

[...] Unnumbered elements can still intrude to change their probability, even now, however; but the probabilities when Ruburt perceived the impressions were that the event would occur. [...]

In many respects the individual is not at the mercy of past events, for he changes them constantly. He is not therefore at the mercy of future events, for he changes these also, not only before but also after their occurrence. [...]

This, and all such effects, represent one of the most basic ways in which one action causes another action to change. [...]

[...] The physical organism is constantly changed by all stimuli, whether or not the ego is aware of the stimuli. [...]

[...] That is, it does not change the basic laws of action. Action will change both within your physical field and outside your physical field. [...]

[...] Yet even the action as it occurs within your system is constantly changing in the ways which we have described, and this changing in itself implies infinities of beginnings and endings within action itself, with no ending, a real or permanent ending, and no beginning, a real beginning out of nothing. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) When any system of reasoning becomes too rigid, however, there are always adjustments made that will allow other information to intrude — otherwise, of course, your belief systems would never change.

[...] Those purposes and intents literally change the world. [...]

[...] Midway through this process he tried to catch himself, but he believed that his body could not handle the heat — and that belief outweighed his intent to change his thoughts, so they kept returning for perhaps ten minutes.

Ruburt’s eyes change constantly while improving overall. [...]

[...] This is allowing all of the other bodily beneficial changes. [...]

Once psychology realizes that the personality is also alert and conscious in the dream state, then indeed its precepts and its bases must change. [...] But it can learn to look inward, change the focus of its awareness and take quick pictures of this inner environment. [...]
