Now, you use atoms and molecules in a strange way. You transpose your ideas upon them. You perceive them in a certain fashion. Now, I am not blaming you. I have done it too in my time, and there is a good reason for it. But the fact is that physical matter is not solid except when you believe that it is. And that organization is transposed from within upon the without. It is not transposed from the without upon you. You form the reality that you know, and even though the table holds up your arms and you may lean upon it and write, I still tell you that the table is not solid. This makes little difference as long as you can write upon it. It makes little difference as long as you can sit upon your couch. But when you leave your physical system, and when physical perception is no longer the rule—then you must learn new root assumptions. Root assumptions are those meaning laws upon which you agree in any system of reality.

Now, you each generally agree, I am sure, that you sit upon a couch. You do not perceive the same couch. You only perceive your own idea constructions. You cannot perceive those of another. Telepathically you transpose your ideas in line with what you know of the other person’s thinking. You agree that the couch is here. 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. I expect at any moment anyone will get a ruler and measure it and then say to me that the couch is so long—how can you say it is not one couch? However, within your physical system the instruments themselves are distorted and, of course, they will agree with what they measure. There is no reason why they should not. Telepathically you all agree upon the placement of objects and their dimensions.

Now, a portion of your entire identity has memory of both. The entire personality structure dwells in many dimensions and simultaneously. You are at the very beginning of any idea of psychology. You simply do not realize what you are now, and as I’ve said before, when you ask me questions about life after death, you automatically transpose, if you will all forgive me, this lack of knowledge into the next realm and therefore, sometimes I am at a loss to answer your questions. You are learning to know yourselves. At the rate you are going, it will take you some time!

[...] You insist upon focusing your attention upon the similarities that are woven through your own behavior; and upon these you build a theory that the self follows a pattern that you, instead, have transposed upon it. And the transposed pattern prevents you from seeing the self as it really is. [...]

[...] For you must go across that plain of ideas, you see, transposing others, and you must go together. [...]

[...] If all of this was transposed over the program that you expected, you would indeed think that nothing made any sense.

[...] There is a great underlying unity in all of man’s so-called early cultures—cave drawings and religions—because they were all fed by that common source, as man tried to transpose inner knowledge into physical actuality.

It is as if your present situation and all its physical phenomena were projected from within yourself outward, giving you a continuous running motion picture, forcing you to perceive only those images that were being transposed. [...]

(Pace slower.) They not only have a reality in the psyche, however, but they are imbedded in genetically codified data by the inner self — a genetic memory of past psychic events — transposed into the genetic memory of the very cells that compose the body.

[...] Yet you may be suddenly perceiving the street, and the field that existed before it, and the images may be transposed one upon the other.

As with a landscape there is often an attempt, my dear Joseph, to steal, so to speak, those elements of life with which the artist is pleased, and transpose them or transfix them, in such a manner that they will attain an invulnerability to other elements with which the artist is dissatisfied.
