Allegorically speaking, from the inside he reaches outward, his hands full of inwardness, but it is you who form the inwardness. In the past you have been afraid of what you considered, but no longer consider, the chaos of inwardness. And he was afraid of what he considered the frozen nature of the inwardness, once formed.
The inwardness therefore flows through and forms matter, and the inwardness remains when it has finished expression in any given form. As you know in the case of man, memory, experience and value fulfillment is not lost as the inwardness disregards one form. This would deny value fulfillment itself.
Reality means consciousness, and through the very physical apparatus developed by inwardness, which was aware from the beginning, further embellishments became possible for consciousness itself. The inwardness not only formed physical matter then, but formed new dimensions of inwardness itself, new dynamics from which consciousness could originate.
There is always an excess of this inwardness, struggling to express itself in an outward form. For this reason a study of the outwardness will never result in true comprehension of the inwardness. There will always be that inside which is still unexpressed.
[...] There are events in the inward world. [...] The physical results this evening came directly from that inward event, though the physical results have only begun tonight to show themselves. He should be able to become aware of other such inward events.
[...] Ruburt should look over his dream material again, to find further correlations between it and the stages of his recovery, further correlations between the inward and outward sequence of events.
He should now be able to perceive the Sumari physicians, and to become more aware of inward dynamics that ordinarily escape notice. [...]
To those who ask concerning the origin of that inward energy you may say that the inwardness came from itself. [...]
[...] Inward, individualized, aware energy existed before the conception of your time, your time obviously being an interpretation of the spacious present, from which all creation not only originally began but continues in terms of value fulfillment. [...]
As the dream does not begin then at any particular moment, neither did your physical universe begin at any given moment, and neither did the inwardness become born in terms of cause and effect.
[...] Nevertheless our last session, with its simplified explanation of development in terms that you can understand, should lead you to realize that because of the parallel development of the dream universe with the physical universe, the study of the dream universe will help you comprehend the basic inwardness behind the physical world that you inhabit.
[...] There is strong concentrated energy turned inward, but it is not turned inward far enough to be effective.
It is turned inward mainly in terms of the ego. [...] If the energies of the personality were turned further inward, or on the other hand turned further outward toward the outside world, there would be an improvement in terms of additional, recharged energy.
There is now an earnest desire to travel inward, but in the past the personality was involved with outward communication. [...] The knot of energy, among other things, quite a few other things, is caused by the temporary inability to change the focus of interests from outward to inward methods of communication.
The subconscious, reaching outward, reaches also inward. For while there is no real past or present or future within the spacious present, there is indeed an infinity of inward and outward; and again, of actions within actions, and there is no end to these actions for they are self-generating. [...]
The inner ego looks inward, yet in looking inward it looks outward toward those vast portions of the self. [...]
The inwardness, or inward energy which forms all these systems, is the inventive stabilizer; and yet in its search it ever creates new outlets that result in creative chaos, a lack of temporary balance which is then balanced. It is from the inwardness then, operating through its forms, that all innovations come, and from which the most seemingly unexpected developments can be expected.
[...] Time not only goes backward and forward, but inward and outward. [...] But in the terms in which I am speaking, it is the inward and outward directions of time that give you a universe that seems to be fairly permanent, and yet is also being created.
This inward and outward thrust allows for several important conditions that are necessary for the establishment of “relatively” separate, stable universe systems. [...] Yet this inward and outward thrusting condition effectively sets up the boundaries and uniqueness of each universal system, while allowing for a constant give-and-take of energy among them.
[...] The inward and outward thrust that is not perceived is largely responsible for what you think of as ordinary consecutive time. [...]
It is vital that you understand this inward and outward thrust of “time,” however, and realize that from this flows the consecutive appearance of the moment. [...]
[...] But all outwardness turns ultimately inward, and then again outward in all directions. And each inward action forms a new dimension that must, again, be thrust outward toward utilization.
Yet each outward thrust turns again inward; and of itself, because of the nature of action, is the creation of new action.
But again, coming here once a week may help you find yourself—it may point you in the right direction—but you will only find yourself when you journey inward. And by journeying inward I do not mean a quick and hasty and apologetic trip to your child memories. [...]
