[...] Purely as a spectator this would loosely represent an analogy to my traveling to other planes. It follows that I could not travel to higher planes than my own, where more acute senses than mine would instantly perceive me. This sort of thing does not as a rule go on in your plane. Even with your limited senses you would perceive my presence, though my plane is further developed than yours.

[...] The dominant personality can be likened on your plane to the dominant entity. [...] As the personality on your plane actually changes, expands and grows according to its potentialities, as it presents at various times varied images to the world, such as—if you’ll excuse me for using clichés—a smiling face, a sorrowful face, but is still basically the same personality, so on another level does the entity present at various times a varied appearance and speak in a different voice. [...]

You are yourselves aware of other planes to some degree, and to some degree you can communicate with them as you communicate with your cat. Imagination allows you to enter into these planes, as when you imagine what another animal’s life would be.

[...] On your plane mental enzymes cause many chemical reactions. On some other planes the mental enzymes are unnecessary, since the personality on a conscious level can work such transformations; and here again we run into an apparent contradiction, because while these transformations occur consciously on certain levels it is also true that the personalities concerned do not have to be conscious of the transformations. [...]

On your plane such transformations are carried on without the awareness of the ego with which you are familiar, and therefore other mechanisms become necessary. On some planes the inner senses are the only senses, because all other necessities vanish since the inner senses function at greatest capacity.

[...] This could result in a temporary, but thoroughly frightening existence between planes that would require utmost caution on the part of the entity. Each plane necessitates its own orientation, and such a personality would have none. [...]

[...] Therefore, if you will for a moment think of bits of energy, or consciousness, initially without definite form, entering your physical plane, then according to the innate strength and capacity of any given particle it will, on entering your plane, on its own subconscious level already know how small or large a physical pattern it can form.

Incidentally, in the same manner that psychological experience exists, and does not take up space, in this same manner do psychic gestalts of intelligence exist, more or less within your plane and yet not visible to your senses. They have some limited effect on your plane however, but this is part of another discussion.

Energy as it comes through your plane is individualized; and indeed, irregardless of any other theories, all energy contains some consciousness, in simple or more complicated gestalt fashion, as I have mentioned that atoms and molecules so possess a limited consciousness, and a generalized subconsciousness which contains within it a capsule comprehension of the universe as a whole.

The energy personality who desires to be materialized upon your plane, himself becomes part of this plane through the use of the inner senses. [...] Since entry into this plane, as a member of this plane, cannot be made in any other manner, it must be made in the simplest terms and be built up on your plane, your sperm being of course an entry in this respect.

[...] Creation almost always exists hand in hand with value fulfillment, and by the time that any physical construction appears within your plane, it has already been in existence. An idea on your plane gives birth to physical constructions, but the idea itself is merely a translation of another reality, which gave birth to it.

Now, you will see that the inner ego of which we have spoken many times is the projector of energy upon your plane. The inner ego, representing the basic personality, through diffusion makes a materialization of itself and enters your plane.

[...] I mentioned to you that there is a plane given to the dream world, and this plane also represents actual constructions with which your conscious mind is not usually familiar.

This development is necessary upon your plane because of the training in the manipulation of energy which is required there. [...]

[...] No plane remains the same; nothing remains the same. [...]

“Everything on your plane is the materialization of something that exists independently of your plane. [...] 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. [...] Survival on a particular plane depends upon your concentration within it. [...]

[...] Now as these wires pass seemingly from plane to plane, they actually form the boundaries of each plane and become subject to the particular laws within each. [...]

[...] On some other planes motion is simultaneous and time unknown. [...]

[...] Your plane could be likened to a small position between four very spindly wires, and my plane could be likened to the small position in the neighboring wires on the other side. [...] And these cubes are themselves within cubes, and I am speaking now only of the small particle of space taken up by your plane and mine.

“Again think in terms of your plane, bounded by its small spindly set of wires, and my plane on the other side. [...] You cannot see through, but the two planes move through each other constantly. [...]

[...] … Again if you will consider our maze of wires, I will ask you to imagine them filling up everything that is, with your plane and my plane like two small bird’s nests in the nestlike fabric of some gigantic tree. [...]

[...] Perhaps it was a plane, so that you would not be frightened. The flying was a fact, you see, the plane was a thought-form.

In sleep, you do inhabit other planes, as I have told you. [...]

The woman was quite real, but existed in another plane of activity. [...]

Your physical plane is not the only plane given to the manipulation of matter. It is, however, the focal point of such planes, and they are closely interwoven. The other two planes form what you may think of as the outer rims. [...]

Therefore, there is what I will call the negative interval, when one pulsation has vanished from your plane and another is about to take its place. [...]

[...] This physical matter on your plane we will call positive matter. [...]

[...] I have explained camouflage patterns to you, I have explained the way the vitality or stuff of the universe changes from plane to plane. [...] I have described the effects of entry into your plane of the so-called flying saucers, and my entry into your plane is something of the same.

The part that translates inner data sifts it down through the subconscious, which is a barrier and also a threshold to the present personality as it operates on the camouflage plane. I have mentioned many times how vitality changes as it approaches and forms various planes. [...] But continuing with the necessary analogy, on the other side of (or beneath to you) the racial memories, you no longer exist within your plane, and look out upon another with the face of this other self-conscious part of you. [...]

[...] What I did not make plain was that your dreams are part of a plane, and exist on it as you exist on your plane.

From the 12th session for January 2, 1964: “I have more senses, so to speak, in operating use … than you have, because not only am I aware of my own plane [or reality], but of yours and other parallel planes, even though I myself have not existed in some of those others …” And: “There are certain environments that I cannot glimpse from my viewpoint, although I have greater understanding of these things than you. I realize that the changes that must occur before I can view those other planes will occur in me, and not in the planes.”

[...] This would loosely represent an analogy to my traveling to other planes. It follows that I could not travel to ‘higher’ environments than my own, where more acute senses would instantly perceive me … On many planes, we are fully visible to others on that plane. [...]

From the 14th session for January 8: “Everything on your plane is a materialization of something that exists independently of your plane.”

[...] They materialize upon your plane, forming their blocks of construction. The creation that causes the whole to be more than the sum of its parts is merely the inner identities, the bulk of this consciousness not able to fully materialize upon the physical plane. In other words, no consciousness fully materializes upon the physical plane.

And in each of these planes of existence there is a reflection of the basic laws of the spacious present itself, which I am in the process of giving you. [...] I have said that all the entities who would ever dwell upon your plane did exist, and actually have a hand in on the creation of your planet, that would ever dwell upon it.

In their materialization upon your plane, and as seen from your own camouflage perspective, you seem to be aware of new entities, but this is because of your own limited viewpoint. [...]

[...] On your plane such construction and such electronic and atomic patterns, frameworks and fields, are rigid to a degree, but even on your plane there is constant and apparent change. The pattern on your plane is more or less rigid while you exist on your plane. [...]

[...] I intend to tie this in for you later with a clearer explanation as to how you on your plane form your own camouflage universe, and to elucidate on the fact that form is not rigid, though it appears to be in many cases on your own plane.

[...] Without this sixth sense, and without its constant use by the inner self-conscious ego, you could not even construct the physical camouflage universe of your own plane. This sense, again, is used constantly beneath the outer ego’s awareness, and forms the basis for camouflage constructions on every plane.

(On June 5, 1968 John Pitre telephoned Jane from Franklin, LA, seeking answers to three questions: the reasons for John’s uneasiness concerning his wife Peg last week; the reasons for the loss of leg feeling John experiences in hot weather; and data on a pilot, Albert Blevins, who vanished on a flight in a small plane near the Gulf Coast about four years ago, presumably near Franklin.

[...] (Long pause.) Where the plane fell was not as far out from land as it would seem.

[...] The plane did not fall in the middle of a huge expanse—perhaps between the mainland and another shore. [...]

[...] It is actually partly on your plane and partly on other planes. [...]

A neurotic on your plane for example would not necessarily be a neurotic on another plane, though he might be. [...]

[...] In some respects the inner senses can be compared to channels on your plane. [...]

[...] Here they were after death, and at least on her plane it was nothing like they had said it would be while living on earth. [...]

(I asked Malba if she could contact her husband, if he was on her plane. [...]

(Malba said that on her plane she was supposed to learn things, to be taught, but she didn’t know how. [...]

[...] Free will exists on a limited scale on your plane, but it does exist, and the very limitations themselves are the result of free will choices made on another plane by the various entities.

Free will as I mentioned earlier certainly does operate, but you must remember that while it does operate, personalities on your plane are extremely limited as to choice. [...]

[...] When you are on my plane you’ll probably set earth’s skies thundering. [...]

[...] They do not even apply to other camouflage planes. However, the laws of the inner universe apply to all camouflage universes, and all consciousnesses on any plane must follow the basic laws of the inner universe. Some of these basic laws have counterparts known and accepted on various camouflage planes. [...]

[...] The species of mankind, and all other species in your universe on your particular horizontal plane, follow this law under the auspices of evolution. On other planes this law is carried through in other manners, but it is never ignored.

[...] And in your case you are learning to transform inner energy by forming it into physical constructions that the plane enables you to manipulate by the formation of particular outer senses for this purpose. [...]

[...] I gave you one example that you understood clearly, when I spoke about the individual who wanted to catch a plane. [...] He missed his plane—the plane crashed.

If he knew later of the plane’s fate, he thought “How lucky for me that my plans were thwarted.” [...]

It goes without saying that upon your plane male and female are equally important, although because of the plane’s particular overemphasis upon aggressive manipulation the male has thus far dominated.

[...] On your plane you are in closed space, so to speak, physical elements formed into a purposeful gestalt.

[...] Much energy is used by any individual simply in the construction of the material universe on your plane. [...]
