[...] It cannot be clearly understood simply because at present psychologists believe that association works only in connection with past events.

[...] Therefore any given personal association may originate from a dream event as well as from a past waking event.

[...] Therefore these associations are drawn not only from the past, but also from the future.

[...] A psychologist would explain this reaction by presuming some kind of unpleasant event occurred in the past. [...]

As you know now, Ruburt handled himself well in a new situation, and that maturity gained these past two years was instantly felt. [...]

Now in the past he felt that you also did not trust his spontaneity. [...]

[...] Without the past challenge, or one like it, the various elements of the personality would not be sufficiently united, strong enough, to carry the abilities that have been latent within it.

[...] In the past Ruburt would not have permitted this. [...]

Certainly all energy does not go into the construction of physical matter, even on the physical level, as you should know; and I have mentioned in the past that dreams are not sterile, but also construct according to the nature of their own properties.

(See the details of Jane’s dreams, detailed on page 5. For more data on the immediate past lives of Jane and mine in Boston, before the Civil War, see the 59th session, Volume 2, page 140. [...]

The men, reassured by Ruburt in the dream, appeared without being old, although the original event of the past life involved men in their 70’s. This was a distortion of the personal subconscious, to add to the seeming separateness of the two dreams.

He was bound up with you in the past life and what he did not know then, and he knew much, he has picked up telepathically from you, since the washing machine was a visual distortion of the idea of a ship, which he interpreted as a tub. [...]

[...] I said I had similar feelings almost every day as I drove past the place on the way to the hospital at 1:00 PM. All the windows of apartment 5 that I glimpse as I go past seem to hold a special charm for me. [...]

We spent many sessions in the past discussing the nature of action.

You can within them often perceive both your past and present simultaneously, but this has always been a characteristic of the whole self in any case. [...]

[...] Even then, however, all creatures are sustained by that innate gift, that inner sense of security that not only propels creatures toward life, but safely conducts them past physical life and past death’s doorway.

[...] In all of this probabilities are involved, so in all points of the past he touched points of probable healings. [...]

There are reasons why he “relapsed,” but the point of power is in the present, and this material and its understanding by Ruburt is more important than “past” causes. [...]

[...] They are afraid, however, of going out on their own, so to speak, and many are involved in lives that have been built upon past beliefs.

Often you are reacting to implied threats—either those you imagine in the future or remember from the past, so that you do not take the necessary comfort in the sense data of any given moment. [...]

[...] On several occasions however in the past, you did learn to trust improvements, and Ruburt made important strides. [...]

[...] You remember the past history of improvements that vanished. [...]

[...] His performance, Joseph, was extremely heartening, since he trusted his own intuitions this time; that he did not pound his head against the wall, as in the past. [...]

[...] On several occasions in the past I would have spoken to you, but it would have been against Ruburt’s wishes.

[...] From scatterings of data Seth had given in the past I thought Jane’s eyes, even though wide open, did not see others present as they were, as physical entities, but perhaps as electromagnetic personalities.

[...] I see the essence of your personality in all it’s past and present existences, and I must pinpoint you in your time.

[...] You think it more realistic to expect a continuation of past performance, because you believe that man alone, of all nature, is basically ignorant and unknowing.

The work with the book is to supercede any other suggestions I have given in the past for you. [...]

I am going to speak about your past condition, and I am also going to speak about action. [...]

[...] The daily walk that you plan is not only an excellent idea, but had you carried this through in the past, there is a good possibility that you would not have become ill. [...]

[...] A knowledge of past lives would be most helpful to any personality, not only of lessons learned and of triumphs achieved; but also of problems passed and solved. [...]

More than this, again, any money thus acquired in the future, as in the past, would go to promote the continuance of the very system that, left alone, would mutilate our book, and continue idiotic cultural and political policies that are opposed to what you stand for.

[...] Even though someone may have thrown a stone in your path in the past, as a runner such things would vanish from your mind as you concentrated on the feelings in your body of motion and agility.

Your joint ideas of the ideal, its expression, and feared closure, was in the past also largely responsible for your joint embarrassment over Ruburt’s physical condition, your joint shame over his appearance.

[...] In dreams you can experience the past or future. Physical events are actually formed now, in your terms, because of the interactions between past and future, which are not separate in actuality, but only in your perception.

[...] If you could properly understand all of that, then by looking into a single puddle you could tell the past and present weather conditions for the entire planet, and follow the probabilities in terms of storms, or volcanic eruptions. [...]

In some (underlined) respects he was right about compromises, and some made in the past out of well-meaning ignorance cannot easily be changed. [...]

[...] The situation’s roots lie so in the past, and so pervade the present, that practically little can be changed without the greatest efforts. [...]

[...] He thinks you do not want him to talk about his past because you are ashamed of it. [...]

It has largely in the past refused to do so.

The overconscientious self has blocked many of Ruburt’s impressions in the past.

Looking out at them, you view the future as much as you view the past, for as you know now, the future and the past are one, and all apparent separation or division is basically an illusion. They exist, in other words, in your own terms, as much in the future as in the past.

It is of course because of your highly distorted ideas of time that you persist in projecting antiquated concepts of past, present and future outward into explorations of your universe. [...]
