Now imagine again a third line or path, still parallel and adjacent. Examine the feel of your consciousness as you do so. Move now, further on this time, to another path or road that you will call A-IV, and that is still further in distance from your normal consciousness. Now imagine still another line which we will call A-V.

Now here, pause for a moment. If you can, imaginatively look behind you to see these other four roads or paths that run adjacently and parallel. Now turn, step back to the previous road or path to A-IV. Step again back to A-III. Step again back to A-II. Now carefully step back to A-I and pause. Feel your own consciousness at this point.

Now, good evening to you (Brad Lanton) and welcome, and welcome to our guests here. Now what I want you to do is this. It is late, so we will only have a trial run. This will be in Alpha state, so close your eyes and I will give you a lullaby.

Now imagine anything that you choose but have a line or a platform that represents Alpha I. Have it in your mind as a symbol of adjacent consciousness at the same level, perhaps, as your eyes. Do whatever you choose. Imagine yourself as a small figure on the line, for example. Imagine a road and yourself upon it. Now I will want you shortly to imagine other such lines or roads, so pick an image for yourself, that you can use. See yourself clearly on this line or road or path. You may use a floor if you prefer, but see yourself upon it, for this will represent A-I.

Now some of you will be able to follow still further, but hold to the feeling. Now I want you to give that feeling freedom to expand, to change into another feeling, for there is for each of you at least one other individual in a parallel existence who is conducting the same experiment that you are conducting now. And the change in that feeling can lead you to the feeling that that other individual is now experiencing. [...]

Now I want you to follow that channel backward to land in the other room and feel yourselves enter the bodies that sit there. Now the selves that you know are now returning through the channels, and as they do you will experience a relaxation of the neck and shoulder area and as you return into the selves that you know the back of your heads will also feel more rested for the body knew that there was a difference in consciousness for some of you. [...] Therefore, collect yourselves and now return to this room. [...]

Now if you are able to go even further imaginatively, you can open those other eyes and look into that other room and that is what I would like you to do. Now for one brief moment I want everyone in this room to open your eyes and then look about the room quickly and close your eyes again. Open your eyes now. [...]

Now I want each of you to examine the feeling, hold the feeling while you listen to me but remember to hold the feeling for they are the connections, these feelings, with parallel selves. Now the feeling should come from the center of the back of your head and extend backward. [...]

Now I want you here where I can see you for a minute (to Sue). And if all of you will listen, in your own way, you can apply what I am about to say to yourselves though for right now I am addressing these two (Sue and Juanita). [...] Now it is a lovely smile. [...]

[...] This can start now, and for some of you it will. Now I want each of you to put your notebook, each of you, to put your notebook by your bedside. [...] Now explorers must keep records, and you are all explorers, and we draw our black sheep of the universe from all directions. [...]

[...] It is only for you now to see and to hear. [...] You are trying too hard now. [...]

The early problems that helped trigger your difficulty you can now, as an adult, overcome these by realizing that the inner self has its own knowledge and its own ways. [...] Now you do not trust the inner self to do these things, and you must learn to accept the inner ancient wisdom that is your own. [...]

[...] Now these old feelings also hung over you in that you felt that existence was much more difficult than it actually is now, and you are still relating to this old existence where times were so difficult. Now in that time, you definitely needed—and you had—someone to help you. [...] Now she, for quite other reasons, was attracted to you, but you have been terrified that alone you could not make it and would not survive. [...]

[...] You can, however, allow yourself more freedom than you are now allowing yourself. [...] Now I tell you, you are overly concerned with these pursuits, that you could get the same results by trying less, by being freer. [...] You will also get better physical results if you will allow yourself more inner freedom for you will gain energy and strength that you need now. [...]

Now you may or may not realize that here we have made a small, a very small, start in the study of multidimensional personality. [...] And you are beginning to use them now whether or not you realize it. [...]

[...] It illuminates your own egotistical awareness even now whether or not you realize it, and it guides your actions even now whether or not you realize it. [...]

[...] Now I would speak to you in my Alpha I except the state is somewhat different than the one with which you are now becoming acquainted. [...] Now you are receiving some valid inner information. [...]

(To Gert.) Now you are going too far ahead. [...] Now, that clearly will not do when our friend is trying to introduce you to Alpha I.

Now we will see to it, if he does not tell you, that these steps are clearly given, but you will discover them for yourselves. [...] Now I will not give you a diploma, you will give yourselves your own diploma. [...]

(To class.) Now you can utilize this state as a method of inner transportation. [...] You can use it to understand your present reality now and to understand your fellow being as in the communication that took place here. [...]

Now there is something you should do, not now, but shortly, and I will tell you what it is when the time comes. And now even my PS is finished. [...]

Now, as Ruburt mentioned earlier, we have some strong elements present. [...] Now all of you can be involved to some degree or another but you must want to be involved. [...]

[...] Now do not hit yourself over the head with the suggestion, simply tell yourself that you are now free to remember your projections. [...]

Now this is a sort of psychological understanding and intuitional insight that is beyond words. [...] Now I have written the material, using rather crafty methods, in that there are keys within the material, within the words, that I have chosen that open up intuitions if you allow them to. [...]

[...] Now, in so doing, you also gave affection to the animal and awakened within it characteristics it did not have earlier. [...] Now I am not speaking in words of physical communication but you opened up its awareness. Now though it seems to you perhaps at this point tragic, the facts are that the real tragedy would have occurred had the cat lived, in your terms, and had you curled up in it, in your house on the corner, and turned your love inward to the animal rather than outward, for there are people who need it. [...]

(To Rachel after break:) Now, your husband had a horror of old age. Now, give us a moment—he much preferred leaving his body when he did. [...] Now in the two lives immediately previous he stayed with the body at one time until he was 87 and at another to the age of 92 and at a time when such age was quite unusual. [...]

[...] Now, give us a moment here. You may ask whatever questions you have either at another class or later, but give us time to pursue this now. [...] Now I am concerned with your state of mind, not with the state in which you lived. [...]

[...] Now this is a preliminary. [...] Now consciousness is a beautiful, personified, precarious thing. [...]

Now, I will speak to the lovely roses in the vase so that you will know I am not addressing anyone in particular. Now, one of these roses leaves the familiar world that it knows and embarks upon out-of-body experiences quite frequently, but this rose has a beautiful memory. [...] For now, be satisfied with that and do not try too hard. [...] Now, I will give you some information on the subject, though it is too late this evening, and if you want some specific exercises that you personally can use, I do not know that you will smell as sweet as a rose on your return, but we will see to it that you get the exercises. [...]

[...] Now, as I told you, you have experiences in the dream state and in the waking state of which you are not even physically aware. Now, you also often develop abilities in the dreaming and sleep state and perform work and creative activities of which you are not aware. Now, if you really learn to keep track of your dreams and record them over a period of time, you may get a clue as to what these activities are. [...]

Now, read some of the material in the back of the book on plant life. Now, I see upon a chair, a woman who is not there. [...]

Now, I have treated you all very gently in class, and I have used simple language, and I have explained things easily and coddled you, Now, 1 want you to study the material that you have. [...]

[...] All That Is—is now. And you are a part of All That Is now. And as I have told you often, you are a spirit now. The avenues for development are open now. You can, now, set upon exploring environments that are not physical if you want to, but I do not see any rush of students at that invisible door! [...]

[...] Now as you know, you do not perceive the atoms and molecules that swim about the room nor the atoms and molecules that fill this space between our friends, nor the forces—the field forces—that exist. [...] Now, without your particular physical perfection you would not perceive the couch as solid. And consciousness that has different perceptive mechanisms than your own is unaware of our now famous blue couch. [...]

Now, you each generally agree, I am sure, that you sit upon a couch. [...] Now, it is true that within your physical system—for I know this will come next from our friend Florence—you can measure your couch. [...]

Now, you use atoms and molecules in a strange way. [...] Now, I am not blaming you. [...]

Now, in terms of growth and development and speaking now simply to get the idea across, theoretically, you are working toward a time when the you that you now know will be aware of the entire personality and accept it as your identity. [...] You must simply accept the fact for now until your own experience begins to prove it more and more. That the inner identity, that you, is far more than you presently realize, and the best way to work toward such realization is to accept the self that your are now, as you are. [...]

[...] Now I have been on television and now I am to be on radio and I am to be on the movie screen and I must remember to be decorous and quiet. [...] Now, when I speak with saints then I look saintly. [...]

Now development is a journey within creativity. [...] You cannot help creating now, anymore than you can help breathing and when you breathe no longer you still create. [...]

[...] Now, to some extent, what you say is true and yet much of this is not of my doing. [...] Now my voice is loud but the voice of the inner self is very still and you must be quiet to hear it and so from the loudness of my voice let your self run inward into that silence that is very active. [...]

[...] Now the name was like the name of a well-known philosopher, Teljard. [...] Your husband was what amounts now to a Colonel in the 14th Regiment then stationed within that city. You had two children, one now your present sister. [...]

[...] You are now in a projection. [...] Now look closely about you. [...]

Now you may each interpret your experiences in your own way but feel the independence of yourself from this room and from this time and from this existence. [...] A reality in which you are intimately concerned and feel within yourselves the inner identity recognizing that which it now sees and perceives. [...]

Now feel, again within yourself, the birth and emergence of ever new energy so that it pulses within all the reality that you know. Let it sustain you, let it carry you again safely back to the hallucination of the physical room and the projection that you now accept. [...]

Now, let us take for argument’s sake, a poor unintelligent flower in the middle of a garden. Now, there the poor thing is, and it cannot move back nor forth. [...] Now, when the rain falls it gratefully accepts the droplets. [...] And when a sunny day comes, the flower does not lift its idiotic head and say, “Now, this appears to be the sun. [...]

Now, in the winter time our poor idiotic flower seems, indeed, to be dead. [...] What has happened to the summertime, and will it never come again for me?” That is what you are doing now. [...] It is within you now. [...]

Now, you are like a dog with a bone, at your problems, at them every moment, and you must get away from them. [...] It will take away the sense of unworthiness that you now have. [...] Now, how is that for a starter? [...]

(To Janice.) Now, to you, the panic has always to do with deep anxiety. Now, a situation in your life can serve to trigger it as a relatively minor situation. [...]

Now, each personality is free and you are never imprisoned within time. [...] Therefore, actions that you make now can help a so-called past personality. And a so-called future personality will step in and help you along your weary way, but also, your actions now can also affect the future personality as well as the past one. [...]

Now, you must try to stretch your imagination and to feel these realities because the intellect alone cannot comprehend them. Now, psychological time is your best method for perceiving these actualities. You can feel what you cannot necessarily describe verbally, and know through direct experience what even the physical brain cannot describe nor comprehend, for you are more than the physical brain that you have now. [...]

Now, you may all rest, but I hope that during your break you try to let the barriers that you have built up within yourselves dissolve for only you form them and only you can dissolve them and what you do now is important, you see, not only for the self you are now, in your terms, but again, in your terms of reference, for the selves that you have been and the selves that you will be. [...]

Now, ancient Rome exists and so does Egypt and Atlantis. [...] Now, again, you have been told simple tales and they are delightful tales, but if you were not ready to hear more, you would not be in this room. [...]

Now the old man, in your terms, that will be, the personal old man that you will be, exists now as the child, in your terms, that you were exists now. [...] Therefore, in your terms, the selves that you were and the selves that you will be exist now. [...]

Now I bid you good evening, and when you realize that you have been many people and that you are many people, then you will realize that you need not think so in terms of age, for you are as much now the young woman that you were back in Naples in the 14th century as the man that you now think you are, and you are not bounded by what you think of as your present age. [...]

Now I will tell you briefly that you were involved with last week although I have already told Ruburt and Joseph in their session. [...] As what you are now is a translation of yourself in terms that you can understand. [...] You do not have them now, but you will have them shortly for the session is not yet typed, but that will help clear up some of the questions that you have in your mind. [...]

Now I want you to do something if you wish. [...] Now I want you simply to follow along, to listen to the sounds, to let whatever images come into your mind come. [...] Now give us a moment. [...]

Now, the deliberation with which you speak, in class and to those with whom you work, has to do with the fact that in the past, as I mentioned earlier, you memorized a code of ethics, and you had to be deliberate as you recalled this code and then told it to others. You can be more spontaneous now in your speech, and you will find that you can communicate more smoothly to others. It is more difficult now for you do not have a code of ethics written in your head to tell others. [...]

(To Sue.) Now this one over here. [...] Now, Ruburt’s way is too expensive. [...]

[...] Now, give Ruburt back his wine, and I will tell you. [...] Now, the hand also represents freedom. [...]

(To Giselle.) Now, I have a remark over here and it is this. [...] Now, this has to do in some regard to work you did in the past when it was highly dangerous to speak of your beliefs or to remember this code of ethics. [...]

All right now, I will fix all of you. I will say good evening to you now, but I will continue what I have to say when you go to sleep this evening. [...] Joking aside, I will speak to those now here this evening while you sleep, and you may ask me what questions you have. [...] Now when I speak to you, you may remember me, but you may very well see me as you think I am. [...]

[...] Now, I have been a liberal from way back, and yet there are certain circumstances indeed where I become very conservative. [...] Now as you have known, I have been here this evening, bell and all. [...]

[...] You know now, I do not have to tell you, that you are not actuating all your abilities. [...] Now you are in too many places at once. [...]

Now I ring the bell—and I will clear up a slight issue that has come to my attention. [...] Now you should realize that this endeavor is indeed a highly creative one, for you have here at the least, at the very least, two personalities, my own and Ruburt’s, and we dwell entirely (in) different dimensions. [...]

Now, I forgot to smile. [...] Now I am used to speaking to the whole Northeast, this is what you get here in the living room. [...]

Now the past images also represented not only the past in the historical context of civilization, but the past as it applies to your own personal subconscious. [...] Now the structures were also symbolic in another way. [...]

[...] Now you see I can speak on tables as well as chairs. Now the relationship that did not take place in this reality took place in another and in that reality the two of you are connected and this accounts for the feelings that you have had toward our friend here (Sue). [...]

Now conventional religion requires tribute and so the men came to you at the door. Now you saw them hooded and with red hoods, this meant several things to you on a subconscious basis. [...]

[...] Three months later you have had a really bad day and you are mad at life in general and now you come and find our poor friend upon the floor, this time, perhaps, asleep at a chore somewhat more important that you wanted done. Now, far be it from me, even in a fantasy, to accuse you of such an act, but you stand here and look at a slattern and this time you are out of your mind. [...] Now the nicest thing that could happen would be that you suddenly blew your stack and kicked him. The worst thing that could happen would be that, once again, you restrain the acknowledgment of your feelings and the pent up and unacknowledged and perfectly natural aggression in the beginning that has now built up, is ready to explode and now you send out a thought form out of all proportion to any of the event that causes your friend severe harm. [...]

Now, our friend back here (Ned) has tried his disappearing act for some time and a good deal of the time he does it without knowing that he does it, and on occasion he tries it deliberately. Now it is theoretically possible, for example, theoretically possible for him, or any of you, to disperse your consciousness and become a part of any object in the room or to fly apart, for example, disperse yourself out into space without leaving your sense of identity. Now this is not practical, in your terms, and yet many of you do it to gain refreshment while you are sleeping. [...]

[...] Now let us consider that thought and why were you so terrified of it. [...] I am using your terms now. Now, say the following happened, at least you were aware of the thought, but say, in your terms, you progressed to the point where you were no longer aware of the feeling. [...]

Now, our friend back here (Ned) could well appear, you see, as a UFO in another aspect of reality, and frighten the inhabitants. [...] Now, I use the word materializes because it makes sense to you but the word itself is distortive because it predisposes an appearance within matter materialization, and yet all realities, as you know, are not physical. [...]

Now we have spoken in terms that you could understand, the nature of your world and reality as you know it, but you have not taken the stuff of reality into your hearts and understood it and this is what you must now begin to learn to do. In other words, you must accept the emotional self, not superficially, not idealistically, but as it now exists. The reality of what you are now and then you can begin to work with what you are and what you have. [...]

I suggest now that when I am finished, for a preliminary starter, each of you tell a secret. Now you may have told this secret to your mate or to those closest to you or you may not have, but one that is not known to the world at large. [...] Now some of you will doubtlessly choose secrets that are meaningless but even this is a beginning. [...]

Now our friend, Ruburt, is not about to go for all this sexual hanky-panky that is described in this precious book, but the man who wrote the book picked up his information from the inner self and then he made a story about it. And when you come to class from now on I will expect to find you all here, not just the physical self, not just the intellectual self, not just the portions of yourself that you term, psychically inclined, but the emotional self. [...]

Now you must admit that I have set you some example. [...] Now you show somewhat more of yourselves in class than you do in your usual life situations. [...]

Now I can tell you what to do, and I can assure you that this works. [...] Now in your mind you now have the image of yourself with hampered motion, stiff joints. [...]

[...] Now not habit forming, but habitual. You can prevent this if you cease taking it now and then for several days. [...]

Now I want you to mentally talk to the portions of your body that hurt you. You do this whether you now it or not, but you have been saying the wrong things. [...]

Now. [...] I am speaking of the physical situation—the illness itself.You have every good chance of ridding yourself of the symptoms now, but you must immediately begin to use your imagination, so that it works for you and not against you.
