Pure energy, or any “portion” of it, contains within itself the creative propensity toward individuation, so that within any given portion all individually conscious life is implied, created, sustained. Pure energy cannot be destroyed, and is “at every point” simultaneously being created. Your physical universe and laws give you little evidence of this kind of activity, for at that level the evidence shows you the appearance of time or decay. Your own psychological activity is the closest evidence you have, though you do not use it as such. Pure energy has no beginning or end. The psyche, your psyche, is being freshly created “at every point” of its existence. For that matter, despite all appearances, the physical universe was not born through some explosion of energy which is being dispersed, but is everywhere being created at all of its points “at each moment.”
Basically, the psyche is a manifestation of pure energy in a particular form. It is very difficult to consider its experience outside of the framework familiar to you. You demand a certain preciseness of definition and terminology. That vocabulary automatically structures the information, of course. The psyche is a conglomeration of energy gestalts. To understand that, you must realize that pure energy has such transforming pattern-forming propensities that it always appears as its manifestations. It becomes its “camouflages.”
CHARACTERISTICS OF PURE ENERGY, THE ENERGETIC PSYCHE, AND THE BIRTH OF EVENTS
Our book. New chapter. Heading: “Characteristics of Pure Energy, the Energetic Psyche, and the Birth of Events.”
(Pause.) The knowledge that we have, myself and others like me, would be incomprehensible to you in its pure form.
Translations are therefore necessary, and in many respects the distortions that will appear of necessity in any such translation (pause) are requirements; what might be termed distortion from pure knowledge, you see, is often the result of the translations without which you could not receive nor understand the material.
[...] As you understand, pure knowledge cannot be put into words, and for that matter it exists beyond your usual concept of thoughts.
[...] Identities can contain pure knowledge without translation, and use it to seed various existences and to form realities. [...]
(Slow at 9:43.) These coordinate points — absolute, main, or subordinate — represent accumulations or traces of pure energy, minute to an extreme if you are thinking in terms of size — smaller than any particle of which your scientists know for example, but composed of pure energy. [...]
[...] There are main coordinate points, pure mathematically, sources of fantastic energy, and subordinate coordinate points, vast in number.
[...] While they are traces or accumulations of pure energy, there is a great difference between the amount of energy available in the various subordinate points, and between the main and the absolute points.
[...] These thoughts are things, so to speak, as real as a chair; but you are acquainted only with their purely subjective reality. [...]
[...] The mind, as separate from the brain, the mind exists purely and simply in the electric system or field, and does not project itself directly into the physical field although its effects appear within it.
[...] All seemingly purely subjective experiences which take up no physical space, but are emotionally or subjectively felt, all such experiences exist first of all electrically.
[...] Thus thought becomes an inner image which is translated into a thermal image, and then into intuitional form, into highly condensed and codified data, and then into a pure and direct sort of experience which you cannot understand as physical creatures.
We will have a relatively brief session this evening, for I would hesitate to disrupt what our friend anticipated to be a purely social occasion.
What you have in the spider’s activity amounts to a demonstration of the sixth inner sense almost in its pure form. The spider has no intellect or outer ego, and his manipulations are the direct result of activities performed by pure and spontaneous use of the inner senses. [...]
Scientists will begin to look for easier methods, and believe it or not, the first really important discovery will be made by an orthodox scientist out of pure desperation. [...]
One of the closest glimpses you can get of pure action is action as it is involved with the dream world and in this mobility as the personality passes into and out of the dream field. Within the physical world, you deal with the transformation of action into physical manipulations — but this involves only a small portion of the nature of action, and it is my purpose to familiarize you with action as it exists, more or less, in pure form. [...]
[...] Not being a physical reality, it influenced the world of physical matter in a way that no purely physical reality ever could.
This unit could be compared, then, to a molecule on the purely physical level. [...]
It represents also the minimum thrust value necessary for physical transformation of energy from a purely psychological into a physical state. [...]
The rather slap-happy, haphazard attitude of the other residents on that road is actually more effective in maintaining it, since they do not dwell upon its disadvantages but simply and purely expect the road to be passable.
