([We checked notes after next break.] When personality compared physical reality with children playing with [physical] blocks, he made a remark about a giant peering through the window at the child’s play; and... I saw or had the feeling of a giant’s face filling up an ordinary window. Hard to recall now; perhaps I was the giant?

(After break, still felt the pyramid bit; so went along and session continued. Then more sensations; or rather, again I felt sensations that were concepts translated into feeling rather than words; but feelings and images. Here I started to feel the microscopic nature of our planet, comparatively speaking; a shrinking a momentary sense of desolation that was my own, I think; there was no attempt to deny integrity or uniqueness of physical life; but only to express... its relative size [poor word] and of the whole physical system. At same time the pyramid seemed inverted, wide at the top, with a giant face peering down into the room, as through a microscope. If the room was going to shrink and all of us with it—as it had grown massive, I just wasn’t ready for the experience. “I” could sense it about to happen. Through all of this, I use the word I, yet these things were happening and “I” was a part of the action so a part, that it was difficult to separate me from it. So now, wanting out, “I” tried to find “myself”—to make body make a motion to signal Rob. Earlier I thought of just yelling out to the personality, look forget it; but couldn’t find vocal chords or something; the personality was using them. So this time “I” found myself, pulled myself together, briefly found voice while personality was silent and just as I was seeing the giant face peer down over me, at pyramid top, at me, and room. Rob brought me out by touching me.

[...] I feel like I’m really giant-sized, pacing through this room and talking.” [...] “I forgot: my head went up through the roof and I guess I was a giant walking over the earth. [...]

(“I feel giant-sized now, though, again... [...]

[...] I was giant-sized again. [...]

[...] I feel like I’m a giant to those little people, with this method of self-perception I’m using; now they’re back working under my knees.” [...]

4. Many readers of the Bible will remember the famous statement in Genesis 6:4, that “There were giants in the earth in those days.” [...] In Texas, very clear giant-sized human tracks, dating from the Cretaceous Period of 140 million years ago, have been found intermixed in rock with those of several kinds of great dinosaurs — a discovery completely at odds with current scientific ideas that man is at most but a few million years old. [...]

[...] This includes stories of fairies and giants, for example. [...]

[...] God instead must be a giant onion, a beautiful giant onion, and so our poor and stupid little onion spends all its life waiting for this giant perfection of an onion to come by and save it. He may even hallucinate such a giant onion but all the time the principle of vitality and power and growth is All That Is, and all of it that you can understand at this point, is within the onion. [...]

[...] We have not seen the photo Barbara took of Gary in the giant vase or jar.)

[...] Then she had the feeling of those familiar “giant faces” peering down into our universe — and rather nostalgically, too, she laughed. [See the extensive notes for the 653rd session in Chapter Thirteen, describing her various states of altered perception last April 2. In one of those intervals she’d sensed giants standing about the rim of our world.] Now, Jane said, from their massive viewpoint these observers could see “everything happening at once in our world, from California to Russia — like astronauts looking back at us….”

[...] And when I poured my beer now, just for a second I got that feeling of being giant-sized myself.

2. Jane speaks for the Seth Two personality occasionally; and that concept is related to the giant-size phenomena.

Dream 2—Don’t recall the beginning but it was in a huge amphitheater and there was a picture in great color on a giant screen to the left. [...]

Later in your time all of you will look down into the physical system like giants peering through small windows at the others now in your position, and smile. [...]

(It wasn’t clear, Jane said, extremely difficult to put into words, but she found while speaking the appropriate lines that she was a giant, looking at John and me in the room, although her eyes were closed. [...]

[...] A feeling of microscopic smallness approaching, the reverse of the giant feeling, etc. [...]

When the personality compared physical reality with children’s blocks, he made a remark about individuals returning in our future to peer into physical reality like giants squinting down to watch children play with blocks upon the floor. (As the voice spoke, my eyes were closed, of course, and I don’t remember what the voice said, but have checked Rob’s verbatim notes of the session.) In here someplace, suddenly I saw a giant’s face peer into our living room, its face filling up the entire window.

“Later, in your time, all of you will look down into the physical system like giants peering through small windows at the others now in your position and smile. [...]

[...] This time, though, at the narrow end far above me I saw the same giant head, peering down at me and the room as through a microscope. [...]

[...] It was just about here that I saw the giant face peering down through the pyramid above me. [...]

[...] You simply take a giant step forward. [...]

[...] taking small steps where you would take giant steps? [...]

[...] You simply take a giant step forward. [...]

[...] And are you not only now—and even reluctantly—taking small steps where you would take giant steps? [...]

[...] “Wow — a whole bunch of these little Seths climb up on top of the giant head — but in perfect poses. [...]

[...] I never saw the entire giant-sized figure of Seth. [...]

The giant image of myself, never clearly glimpsed by Ruburt, represents my own greater reality. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) You are not subordinate to some giant consciousness. [...]

(The 60th envelope experiment used as object a quick black line drawing, on porous white paper, that I made of a giant begonia plant at the office. [...]

[...] The little sketch used as object shows but the top few leaves of the giant begonia. [...]

[...] The object is a drawing of what is called a giant tubular begonia.

[...] The giant strides necessary involve striding across one’s concerns over impediments, and focusing upon ends. [...]

[...] All molecular constructions exhibit that certain kind of introspective activity, as if the inner working of some giant computer was intimately in touch not only with its own programming and the probabilities connected with it, but with a deep psychological awareness of the activities of the electrons and various visible and invisible particles that form its own physical construction.

I told you that he was ready for a giant (underlined) improvement, and a necessary requirement was and is his recognition of the impulses that he has been denying or restricting. [...]
