[...] He focuses upon it both consciously and unconsciously.

Our material concerning the construction of the physical universe and of physical matter in general may now, perhaps, give you an idea of how important suggestion is. [...]

[...] At break it developed that she did not consciously know about Euclid, the Greek mathematician and geometer.) Now I think this is, with the psi factor, too harsh or sudden; too hasty a movement here will knock 7 off balance. [...]

[...] The particular volume or edition of the encyclopedia came out in the fall, and at the time this guy was working there was some kind of mathematical dispute going on, and a schedule set for some kind of conference to be held at the university for mathematicians from all around. [...]

(6 as in 6 o’clock is not specific enough for easy conscious connection. [...]

[...] For if past, present and future exist together (and continue to develop), then I see nostalgia as expressing a legitimate searching by the conscious mind as it seeks to grasp that the past exists now, and is not “dead.” [...] The yearning I feel each time I drive past the apartment house Jane and I lived in for 15 years, just west of the business section of Elmira, represents my conscious reunification of the past with the present, and even a projection of both into the future in ordinary terms.

[...] Before going into our chronology of personal events for those three months, however, I want to continue my brief study of the affairs—really the consciousnesses—involving Three Mile Island, Iran, and the war between Iran and Iraq. [...]

[...] Despite the appearance that the revolution in Iran—made up as it is of all of those diverse consciousnesses—is feeding upon itself in very destructive ways, in ordinary terms, civil war does not appear to be likely. [...]

[...] With the kind of consciousness you possess, an overreliance upon conserving principles could then end up in a reduction of life’s processes.

The inner ego, however, while conscious of itself, has returned to a subjective position within action, and views itself as a part of action. [...]

Dictation: Ruburt has specialized in a study of consciousness and the psyche. [...]

[...] Seth told us he was able to do such things when Ruburt’s attention was elsewhere, but that as soon as “he”, or Ruburt, became conscious of the possibility of such effects they were usually unattainable.

[...] This is not to deny the human aspects of the ego, for the ego is also somewhat like a light carried in front of the inner self, a light that gives meaning to the physical universe and to its objects. [...]

[...] Certainly not in the beginning, for we want him to consciously forget that the candle is here.

Science has seen man as an accidental product of an uncaring universe, a creature literally without a center of meaning, where consciousness was the result of a physical mechanism that only happened to come into existence, and that had no reality outside of that structure. [...]

[...] Many people are almost consciously aware of what they are doing. [...]

[...] It goes without saying that a sense of time may or may not be interwoven in any given dream sequence, but you as the dreamer are not conscious of the physical hours that pass as you sleep.

In early February, Rob wrote to Dr. Ian Stevenson, who was connected with the Department of Neurology and Psychology at the University of Virginia. [...]

[...] It is a phenomenon in which he gives consent, and he could, at any time, return his conscious attention to his physical environment.

[...] Under its banner of suggestion, however, the great parade of men and other living creatures are observed so that the hypothesis brings about its own hypnotic focus—so that creatures, man, and indeed the universe itself, seem to behave in certain highly ritualized fashions. [...]

[...] Now it is necessary that you, consciously, and with greater understanding, set up your own alternate framework. [...]

He was afraid that as once he felt he dragged you all over the country, you would fear that he was now dragging you all over the inner universe. [...]

The relative (underline that twice) exile of Ruburt’s symbolically feminine characteristics is something that neither of you consciously realized. [...]

Not only that, it is simply a fact that your scientists will indeed discover, and no misty, magical superstition, that consciousness, of itself and because of its nature, forms physical matter. Because I once inhabited physical matter, as you all do now, does not mean that I am now some esoteric, occult creature of dim spiritualistic rather doubtful origins, who manages to invade gullible and neurotic consciousness.

(This was her last conscious thought. [...]

[...] Dependent feelings are quite universal, however, and it is obvious that all human beings do not have ulcers. [...]

[...] For much of this on Ruburt’s part is indeed pretense—not conscious pretense, but pretense. [...]

[...] This does not mean that he need feel like an idiot, but that he set up a body habit for reasons that he once considered valid, and that to change it requires some conscious effort. [...]

In much the same manner, existence within the physical universe involves the most intense self-hypnotic trance, where attention becomes riveted and focused along certain lines while other realities are of necessity closed out of one’s perception and comprehension for a certain while.

[...] The conscious ego with which you are familiar cries out its bewilderment, for has it not always sensed immortality?

[...] It also helps prevent the conscious ego from snapping too quickly back, as is what happens often in Mark’s case.

You cannot appreciate the whole story since consciously none of you can remember it, but at least I can get a good laugh at your expense.

We have spoken about value extension and fulfillment, as one of the laws of the inner universe. [...]

[...] I knew at the time that this was likely to be an oversimplification, yet I also knew at once that it contained the key to the puzzle; this rather simple idea helped me assemble all of the information already described in these notes, half of it in ways I cannot consciously describe. [...]

[...] No reviews in accepted journals, no welcome in the universities by academia, as she herself wrote in God of Jane. [...]

[...] The other day I’d told Jane that I had given up on the idea of donating our work and assets to Yale University Library —indeed, that in the year since we’d had our will made out I hadn’t sent them any material at all. [...]

(Previous to obtaining the package, Jane spent several hours in a strong state of worry and anticipation, and feels this state was a clairvoyant/telepathic attempt to give her conscious self information concerning the package. [...]

[...] It occurs to me however that it would be advantageous to include in the middle section my ideas concerning the construction of physical matter, the inverted time system, moment points, a discussion concerning the dream universe, and the system of probability. [...]

[...] I realized I had been listening to it for some little time, perhaps a minute, before I consciously realized what was happening. [...]

(Jane reports that as she delivers Seth’s messages now, she does not hear the words within before speaking them aloud; rather now she talks along without knowing consciously what she will say from one word to the next. [...]

Nevertheless, the ego is the tool by which the hidden self manipulates in the physical universe as you know it. [...]
