(10:05.) The inner mechanics of emotions and beliefs are complicated, but these are individuals who feel that physical life has failed them. [...] Such systems lead to the formation of cults, and the potential members seek out a leader who will serve their purposes as surely as they seem to serve his — through an inner mechanics of which each member is at least somewhat aware.

[...] It automatically propels your body in the proper fashions, even though you are not consciously aware of the inner mechanisms involved. [...]

[...] It is your private inner environment, psychically speaking. [...]

[...] There is a natural tendency to continue judging inner experience against these root assumptions however. [...] This interpretation of inner reality into physical terms is at first automatic, and far beneath conscious levels. Inner experience, you see, must to some extent be colored by the physical system while you exist within it.

[...] The inner senses are not bound by those root assumptions however. [...] Inner experience often seems chaotic or meaningless because you attempt to interpret it according to the root assumptions of physical reality. [...]

[...] It interprets the inner knowledge gained in its own way, true, but it is immeasurably enriched by so doing. Other layers of the self interpret the same inner experiences quite differently.

[...] Inner stability of response is suddenly swept away. [...]

[...] Were it not however for the basic independence of the inner self from matter, human life as you know it would also be impossible.

[...] These involve not surgery but a proper communication and adjustment, made through or by way of the subconscious to the inner self.

The inner self, which has been called the soul, has connections through the entire physical organism, and is not concentrated in any one portion. [...]

The overall pattern of organization in a physical sense must be maintained however, and always under the auspices of the inner self, which is not imprisoned by its construction, although like any good guardian it spends most of its time at home, in maintaining the structure.

(“The inner portion of your being, using those abilities that have always been yours, interpreted the information through the kaleidoscope of your own being, using the best portions of yourself — producing, then, a brilliant truth in new clothes — but in clothes that no one could have given it but yourself. Now I will tell you: If you assign the authorship of Seagull to another, then you deny the uniqueness of your own inner self.

[...] If you read this, find such an idea in yourself and then say, “l cannot throw this idea away,” then you must realize that your inner remark is in itself a belief. [...]

[...] Do not simply look in the center of your inner room of consciousness; and make sure that you are on guard against the certain invisibility that was mentioned earlier (in this chapter), where an idea, quite available, appears to be a part of reality instead.

(“The truth came to you and was given to you, but the originality and uniqueness was provided by your own inner being, which may now be so separated from your conscious self that it seems to be apart from it.

In physical existence a certain portion of the inner self’s electromagnetic properties are used by the physical structure of the body. Subtle changes occur in the body when the inner self projects. [...] The electromagnetic properties simply revert to their original source with the inner self, and are no longer utilized in the construction of a corporeal image.

You are operating at a rather high level of awareness, and you are using inner senses. [...]

[...] You will realize that your physical self is sleeping, or in a dream state, and that the inner self is fully awake. [...]

Electromagnetic reality belongs to the inner self. [...]

[...] You have inner strength that will give you your own sense of identity and continuity. Any inner security will come from this. [...]

[...] You have inner stability, but you are in danger of losing inner stability whenever you try to project this upon someone else. [...]

[...] The obsession to have him grows precisely in proportion to your inner realization that you do not want him, but only the excitement involved in searching for him. [...]

It should be mentioned that in such cases the inner self, as divorced from the more accessible subconscious, is aware of the situation, and finds release in very valid terms (pause), through frequent inner communications, whereby past successes are remembered, and to some extent reexperienced. [...]

[...] Not for a moment could he then bear to contemplate the inner reality in personal terms.

[...] The general situation is set up in response to deep inner involvements.

[...] At our next session we will go into these matters more completely, for there is an inner logic that may not be at first apparent.

The inner challenges, faced, will be nothing. [...] Before he sleeps he should remind himself of his natural gift of inner mobility, and encourage dream experience and recall. This alone provides the meeting of inner and outer, and true mobility. [...]

[...] It is not physical mobility that worries him, but inner mobility. [...]

[...] It is his freely allowed subjective experience now that results in books—mine, and Seven’s. He has set up barriers however against his own personal inner mobility. [...]

[...] They ignore and fear the inner reality, and the inner ideas and dreams which have actually formed the reality of which they are so proud.

[...] And three, communication between the conscious and subconscious, or the inner and so-called outer parts of the whole self, must be excellent.

Conscious desire to achieve a given end may represent only a superficial, culturally-adopted wish, that may even be directly opposed to the emotionally-charged desires and expectations of the inner self.

Because his conscious desire was based strongly upon inner emotional need, and not opposed to it, and because the emotional need at that time was powerful, that is his need to leave on vacation, and because he remembered our discussion on expectation, he was able to utilize both conscious and unconscious energies. [...]

As Seth continued to explain the inner sense and the unseen reality beneath the objective world that all of us know, I began to understand a little of my situation. And, of course, Rob and I both began to experiment with the inner senses. [...] The next session cleared up several points I had been wondering about and gave us several clues as to how the inner senses could be used. [...]

The inner senses are actually the channels through which the entire composition of any plane is appreciated and maintained. [...] The inner senses, then, are the means. [...] These diverse materials, again, are only camouflage formed by the inner senses upon the ‘material’ itself.

[...] In this state the attention is focused inward rather than outward, and it is the inner rather than the outer senses that are being exercised. [...] Its inner senses were focused in my direction.

[...] This presupposes inner knowledge and calculations, for you must be aware of the probabilities in order to choose from them. The inner self, therefore, has this knowledge. [...] Computers are toys compared with these inner workings.

[...] The ego becomes more like the inner ego and less like its old self, comparatively speaking. [...] Now it is far more open to inner data. [...]

[...] They serve as a method of maintaining inner identity and communication. [...]

[...] Most of these are not as symbolic as Jung thought them to be but are literal interpretations of the abilities used by the inner self. [...]

In any state of dissociation any individual is more sensitive to inner data. [...] In an intimate gathering of close friends, if a few glasses of wine are drunk, and if Ruburt happens to then be increasingly aware of inner data, there is not anything out of the way in holding a session, if this happens only occasionally. [...]

[...] He was also emotionally and intuitively attuned because of his father’s visit, and in an inner state of irritability, meaning excitability, which often accompanies dissociation. There is an outer aloofness, but an inner sensitivity to different stimuli.

[...] It is simply that he becomes vulnerable, or more sensitive, to inner data in a dissociated state, regardless of what causes the state to come about.

[...] In such a state, regardless of its cause, any individual is more sensitive to inner data. [...]

The more intense your imagination and inner experience, therefore, the more important it is that you realize the methods by which this inner experience becomes physically real. [...]

My first purpose, therefore, is to make you aware of the inner identity of which you are part, and to clear away some of the intellectual and superstitious debris that prevents you from recognizing your own potentialities and freedom. [...]

“Wonderworks — inner experiences just beneath usual consciousness — contain different orders of events.¹ Literally the stuff of all creativity (in miniature).

[...] The universe is the result of a certain kind of focus of consciousness; the stuff of it, the matter, rises out of inner wonderworks — of which the private wonderworks of each of us is a part.

“Other species of consciousness gain their experience at different ‘levels’; often we encounter such consciousnesses in the dream state, then interpret their actions in the wrong order of events … according to our own camouflage³ system … Our bodies are the focuses for only the physical part of our consciousnesses … My latest dreams are giving me a picture of the nonphysical inner wonderworks …”

There is a constant translation of inner reality into objects in the waking state, and a constant translation of ideas into pseudoobjects in the dreaming state. [...]

[...] It is only use of the inner senses that will allow you to perceive under these circumstances. [...]

[...] They represent inner roads that connect systems as well as divide them.

The excellent work of art recreates for the observer inner experience of his own also, of which he has perhaps never been aware. [...]

(Pause.) It was a time when your inner thoughts veered off at a tangent from their familiar ways. I believe you had an image of the inside portion of a human body, or a thought having to do with inner organs. [...]

[...] I don’t recall any strong inner image of the interior of a body, but at the same time I know I have thought of this recently.)

[...] Advanced training with the inner senses can lead to such explorations however. [...]

If however his treatment involves drugs, these may further upset the inner processes, causing further imbalances. [...]

[...] The inner beliefs are continually strengthening the ones of freedom, and the body is responding. [...]

[...] That is the situation in the inner order of events now.

That inner order is being physically materialized. [...]

[...] The inner self knows what it is doing. [...]

[...] We want to examine, therefore, the inner power of natural occurrences.

[...] Myth-making is a natural psychic characteristic, a psychic element that combines with other such elements to form a mythical representation of inner reality. [...]

[...] You see your myths somewhat less directly, yet they are apparent within all of your activities, and they form the inner structures of all of your civilizations with their multitudinous parts.

In those terms, then, Christianity and your other religions are myths, rising in response to an inner knowledge that is too vast to be clothed by facts alone. [...]

[...] But James was a gentleman by class, almost in European terms, and Nearing picked, say, the individualism of Whitman or even Thoreau over Emerson’s “inner independence.” [...]

These were all exterior versions of his inner spiritual journeys, for he now looked to nature for support, sustenance, and strength. [...]

[...] There were indeed goods for all—yet those goods seemed to produce little peace of mind, and the workers, through strikes and so forth, demanded more and more a cut of the pie—as if to assuage some inner hunger.

[...] He began to understand, however, that more could be offered, that the inner realities of mind, in some fashion, caused the exterior realities of experience. [...]

[...] However it is impossible for them to create a consistent solid image in your terms, for while they are still focused within your system the inner self knows well that the individual is finished with a given life situation, is out of alignment so to speak, and is therefore denied full use of its own energy.

I will tell you this (pause, eyes open):Neither of you realize as yet the full extent of Ruburt’s inner change of mind, his commitment now to our work, the commitment of his abilities to these matters for his lifetime.

[...] Value fulfillment is always working, yet there is between those two statements—you realize the ones to which I refer—the idea of judgment as an impetus and spur against the inner self’s knowledge of the growth that must come.

[...] The earlier resistance against exercise was quite understandable, for it was a symptom of the inner resistance.
