In a manner of speaking the activity of your brain adjusts the speed with which you, as a physical creature, perceive life’s events. [...]

[...] They do not perceive the mind’s activity at all, except as it is imprinted onto the brain.

[...] When one portion or one half of the brain is activated, for example, the corresponding portion of the other half is also activated, but at levels scientists do not perceive. [...]

[...] How is the orange perceived? [...]

[...] We mentioned in an earlier session something to this effect, in that you simply perceive a small portion of such action, label it as a unit, can perceive no further, and so suppose that what you see or perceive is all there is to see or perceive.

[...] The physical organism cannot perceive it, hence some necessary transformations. [...]

[...] The experience is perceived simultaneously by the inner senses, but it will be translated in terms of physical time.

[...] However, because of your own basic assumptions such experiences, perceived by the inner senses, are played back in such a manner that a traveling through intensities results in a journey through time within your own dimension.

The action involved in these sessions, for example, changes us all, yet truly none of us perceive the nature of the entire action of which we are a part. I, for example, cannot perceive the entire future consequences of any one action. I may perceive the entire consequences of any given action within your system or my own, but it is impossible for me to perceive a given action’s consequences as it is felt within all systems, for each action occurs within all systems simultaneously.

Electromagnetic fields perceived and used within your system have their origin elsewhere. Nevertheless they affect your universe, even though you are not able to perceive them except in limited dimension.

[...] Emanations from this field continue, traveling further, projecting energy that is transformed as you know into matter; and in a simplified version of your universe perceived in terms of such force fields, you would have seemingly endless atoms and molecules spinning about the nucleus, or an endless variety of such patterns that would appear on first appraisal random to an observer from another field.

A disease of course is not brought about at any particular point in time, but is latent, and merely becomes perceivable enough to cause danger at what approximates a particular point in time. [...]

[...] Yet there is a portion of consciousness that can joyfully perceive in a manner that is not dictated by its nature; it can playfully perceive as a creative aspect of its being, without responsibility. [...]

One small note: In some respects these pulsations represent what happens in some of your flying saucer incidents, for you do not have a vehicle such as the one you think you perceive. [...]

[...] The physical vehicles that are often perceived are your interpretation of the event that is actually occurring.

[...] Yet you should already realize that your senses tell you many things, which are not true; and I tell you that your physical senses perceive a reality that is a result of your beliefs.

Believing in evils, you will of course perceive them. [...]

[...] They would perceive the world and existence as good.

(11:06.) They may still be perceiving reality in terms of their old beliefs. [...]

The outer senses cannot perceive the unity. The outer senses can only perceive the apparent diversity within the physical system alone, for the outer senses do not perceive directly any other system but the physical one.

[...] The recovery is accelerating, and will in ways that you can easily perceive. [...]

[...] It also stands for the separation of the self who perceives — and therefore judges and values — from the object which is perceived and evaluated. [...]

[...] You tune your consciousness while you sleep as one might tune a piano, so that in waking reality, it clearly perceives the proper notes and values that build up into physical experience. [...]

(10:05.) At one time, however, you encountered such other formations in a different light, of course, seeing many similarities between their behavior and yours—certain characteristic ways of perceiving at least some experience that elicited your response and recognition.

[...] Such species, of course, can nowhere appear within the dictates of evolution or be perceived as realities except under those conditions when you relax your usual conventions of perception and behavior.

[...] It seems to you now that such personalities (long pause) are not physically perceivable, but at one time you could bring them into the range of your perception.

Now the trees that you see outside the window you see simply as trees because you perceive them only through the physical viewpoint, and yet even these trees have potential abilities and potential combinations of consciousness that you do not perceive and that exists in other probable realities. [...]

([Sue:] “Can Jane and Rob perceive this?”)

(To Ned.) And you find rest beneath trees that are not physical, and you travel quite safely in areas that are not physically perceived. [...]

[...] When you realize, deeply realize, that other realities exist, you can begin to perceive your own part in them. As long as you do not realize they exist you will rationalize away the greatest indication of them that you may perceive. [...]

Now, since in the dream state you are able, quite easily, to perceive the future, why do you find it such a frightening thing to do when you are awake? [...]

[...] There would be no way for you to perceive them from within (underlined) your system of reality. [...]

[...] Our material is the best approximation, the best approximate model you can perceive of a vaster psychological field of existence. [...]

[...] It is impossible for you to perceive in the same direct fashion the majestic, almost unimaginable field of creative action in which any of those events occur, however, in which each act, however seemingly destructive, has vital creative purposes that may or may not appear within the limited references of your conventional dimensions. [...]

[...] Your thoughts instantly attain a form that you can then perceive. If you think of a dog for example, quite unconsciously you form the image of a dog, which you do then perceive.

You perceived in a normal fashion, which should tell you that perception is not dependent upon the physical image. [...]

The body maintains its vitality not only through the physical motion and agility that you perceive, but by microscopic agility, and actions within microseconds, that you do not perceive. [...]

[...] There are decisions made in periods of time so brief you cannot imagine them—reactions that are almost over before they begin, reactions so fast you cannot perceive them as the body responds to its inner reality, and to all the stimuli from the exterior environment. [...]

(It is difficult to get good perceivers in any case, people who notice many things and remember them clearly. [...]

The electricity that is perceivable within your system is merely a projection of a vast electrical system that you cannot perceive. So far, scientists have been able to study electricity only by observing the projections of it that are perceivable within their terms of reference. [...]

[...] Electricity, as you perceive it, is merely an echo emanation or a sort of shadow image of these infinite varieties of pulsation which give actuality to many phenomena with which you are familiar, but which do not appear as tangible objects within the physical field. [...]

You perceive but a small portion of these images which you have yourselves created. [...]

[...] In this way, you will be able to perceive the ways in which it is translated into other fields of actuality that do not involve matter as you know it.

[...] Therefore, within your senses there are other senses that perceive inward. Your regular senses perceive an outer world. The senses within the recognizable senses perceive and create an inner world … once you exist on a particular plane you must necessarily be attuned to it while blocking out many other perceptions. [...] When survival is more or less satisfied through attention, then you can afford to perceive other realities.”

[...] It is physically perceived by the eyes, and to a far lesser degree by the skin itself. [...]

[...] Each unit of consciousness, whatever its degree, is, again, composed of energy—and that energy manifests itself with a kind of light that is not physically perceived: a light that is basically, now, far more intense than any physical variety, and a light from which all colors emerge.

Now: On certain occasions, sometimes near the point of death, but often simply in conscious states outside of the body, man is able to perceive that kind of light. [...]

[...] Thought, for example, has properties that you do not perceive—properties that not only affect matter, but that form their own greater patterns outside of your reality. [...]
