The inner senses have a strong immediacy, a delicious intensity that your outer senses lack. [...]

It involves immediate perception of a direct nature, whose intensity varies according to what is being sensed. [...]

[...] There is a disease you read about recently, where the skin turns leathery after intense itching — a fascinating development in which the human body tries to form a leathery-like skin that would, if the experiment continued, be flexible enough for, say, sweat pores and normal locomotion, yet tough enough to protect itself in jungle environments from the bites of many “still more dangerous” insects and snakes.³ Many such experiments appear in certain stages as diseases, since the conditions are obviously not normal physical ones. [...]

[...] And Jane and I look forward with intense interest to the final version of Dreams, for as always this work will be as revealing and educational for us as it will be for anybody else. [...]

[...] The cold’s duration was far briefer, through very intense, but his overall condition was better then.

Upon physical death you simply step out of the intense focus upon one self-constructed plane. [...]

Yet in such a small mass these intensities contain memories and experiences, electromagnetically coiled one within the other, through which I can travel, even as I can travel through other selves which I have known and which are a portion of my identity—and even as you, so large and bulky in your size, are still a portion of those memories that exist within my identity, and yet so beautifully unpredetermined.

[...] A very weak analogy can be found if you imagine at one time hearing the most exciting and moving music imaginable, while simultaneously smelling the strongest but not necessarily unpleasant odor, viewing the most emotionally-charged scene while feeling intense and vivid bodily sensations. [...]

As the intense experience of great joy or pain often blots out everything else, so would the direct experience of reality blot out, only completely, the outer ego who experienced it directly. [...]

[...] At the moment I still feel that I’m searching for that one intense focus-approach to my work for Mass Reality that will finally mean I’m under way on that project.)

[...] The system also provides practice in the methods of transforming energy into form, and of maintaining intensities, of manipulating energy in various aspects.

But then, as I returned, the intensity of the experience began to fade. [...]

[...] We travel through various intensities. [...]

[...] But the work should be intensive during the week.

It may seem that response to a particular episode is out of all proportion in intensity, but attached to it may be past material which does carry a heavy charge. [...]
