Speaker 1 (00:00):
Is Blake on religion. William Blake was born in England
in seventeen fifty seven and died there seventy years later,
eighteen twenty seven. Blake never went to school, and yet
(00:22):
today any one familiar with the English language, it asked
to make a list of the six ragious uses of
the town, could not. If he's familiar with the language,
he could not admit the name of Blake in any
(00:45):
list of six. I asked that question if all this
hunt stay about five or six years ago, And he
said to me, just what I've just said to you,
No one familion English literature, all the way back to Chaucer, Chaucer, Spencer, Milton, Shakespeare.
(01:07):
You might alter the list somewhat, but I said, no
one could omit the name of Blake in any list
of six of the greatest users of the English dye.
And he never saw the inside abus cool he taught himself.
Hebrewn Greek Battalian. Of course he was the master of
(01:31):
the English dae. He had his vision for the time
with the child, and when he died he was still
commuting with the world of returnity. Really he was singing hymns,
and he said, they're not mine. They belonged that there
was eternity. They're not really mine. He said, Of religion,
(01:54):
I know of no other Christianity, and of no other
Gospel Father, than the liberty both of body and mind
to exercise the divine arts of imagination, imagination the real
and eternal world, of which this vegetable universe is but
(02:17):
a faint shadow, and into which we shall go in
our eternal or imaginative bodies, when these vegetable mortal bodies
are normal. There is no one who is given more
this world concerned the secret of imagining than Blake, unless,
(02:39):
of course, he speaks of the Bible. For the Bible
to him was pure vision from beginning to end. It
was his text book. And so he asked, this very
founded man of the day, why is it that the
Bible is more agitating and instructive any other book? And
(03:02):
then he answered the man, is it not? Because it
is addressed to the imagination, which is spiritual sensation, and
only immediately to the understanding or reason. So to him
the book was pure revelation, God's word. He wrote what
(03:23):
he considered the grandest poem of the world, Jerusalem. He said,
I now praise it because I am only the secondary.
Its authors are in eternity. Here, in a very short
period of time, Blake completed this grand Boy. He said,
(03:43):
it was dictated to me sometimes twelve, sometimes twenty, and
thirty verses from verses that lines at a time. So
here I work that should have taken a lifetime of labor,
came without labor in so short a period of time.
And he starts in the beginning, and he states the
(04:04):
theme before he allows the dictation. And the theme is
sad in the very first two lines of the sleep
of hour, how is this world? And of the passage
through eternal death and of the awakening to eternal life.
They say this theme calls night after night in sleeping,
(04:29):
and every morning awakes me at sunrise. Then I see
the spirit of my shavior hovering over me and dictating
the words of this Miles song. The spirit of love
he is saving, hovering and dictating twelve twenty thirty lines
of the time. And then the victation begins with an
(04:52):
appeal to man awake of sleeper of the line of shadows, wake, expaire,
I am in you and you and me mutual in love, divine.
But then said he the perturbed mayor away turns down
(05:14):
the valley's darn. He can't believe it. And many imputes
sin and righteousness to individuals and not to states. To
understand Lake, you've got to draw a line of demarcation
between the individual, the immortal youth, and the states the
present station of that individual, he said. As the problem
(05:38):
passes while the country permanent remains. So man passed on,
but states remain permanent forever. So we must distinguish between
the state and the individual occupying that state. To understand Lake,
(06:00):
if all that you behold, though it appears without, it
is within in your imagination, of which this world of
mortality is but a shadow. And he constantly reminds the
reader never to contain any one of this world poor sad.
I do not consider that just or the wicked to
(06:21):
be in a supreme state, but to be stating of
the sleep which the soul may fall into in its
deadly dreams of good and evil. So come Lord Jesus
and creating states to deliver man. Evermore, you see someone
who is not feeding, well, maybe he's up against it financially,
(06:42):
maybe things aren't going. Is the thought to go? That's
a state if you know the difference between the individual
in that state and a former state or a future
state that you can create. You can lift him out
by representing that individual to yourself. You will like to
see him and put him in that state. Do it
(07:03):
without this knowledge, do it without his consent. You can
do it. You can create a state and pour people
out of horrible states into lovely states. Lead them in
the lovely state, and they will simply occupy it beautifully.
And to then you will get the only state. The
only reveal thing is but thirteen at the moment when
you pull them into it, and he shows us how civil.
(07:25):
He said, I have four fall vision see and a
fourfole vision is given to me. His four pole in
my supreme delight, and three poll in soft Vieler's night.
His two pole alls may God, a skip from single
vision and mutant sleep. Single vision to him will simply
(07:49):
the ordinary physical site where this is what appears to be,
and nothing more. Double vision is made. Everything is but
a civil told her the story the morning I opened up.
The little girl five years old. Well, her is the
sister who was three this past year, taken to the
(08:09):
beach by her grandmother in the beach or out of
the sea were piles driven into the sand, marking some bunkley.
And she turns to the grandmother. She said, Grandma, looked
sticks bathing, for I struck the mother family, the grandmother,
and she recorded it and told me about it. But
(08:30):
this little child, not yet painting with the adult mind,
soft sticks bathing. They were not simply piles in the sand, unsightly.
Not to her, she rejoiced and dished at the moment
she wore a stick and out of that water bathing
with the sex because the then, or to the little mind,
she endowed the sticks with animation, with something alive, and
(08:53):
they were bathing. That's double dias And he speaks of it.
To my output eye, it's an old It is simply
a heather or a thistle along the way. But with
my inward eye, it's an old man gray. But did
the flower He saw a flower of the outer eye,
and with the inner arm saw something entirely different. Don't
(09:14):
you practice said, you look at something along the way
and you see it entirely different. He said, I wait
to the heath and the wild, to the thawns and
the thistles of the way. And they told me how
they were beguiled, driven out, and then compelled to be chastened.
(09:36):
He called it fair. Things were the outward eye, a
thistle and a thorn, and he communed with a thistle
in the thaw, and they spoke to him and told
him that they were simply the embodiment of the suppressed longings,
of the normal longings of the human art. He communed
with them and they spoke. All this was double vision.
(10:00):
Now three four vision. You must practice. Practice is to night.
Everyone must assure practices. What the little girl did, that's
three four vision. She imagined herself in a living room
with all glass balls. That's an image. The room is
an image, and she is an image. The mother is
an image of all that she did. She blended and
(10:20):
inter mental images. She married her and then their produced offspring.
The offspring was the results in the world where the
home was bought by her father. She did not consult
the father. She simply toed up her mother into a
confidence and together they played the part. And then the
pardon had a change of jobs, increase income, and he
(10:42):
bought the home. So that is threefold vision. If I
bring him into my mind's eye and represents you to
myself as I would like to see them and persuade
myself of the reality of this imaginal act of mine.
That's three four vision. What does it imply? What it
implies with forty for you? So I'm doing something which
(11:02):
will imply something else. That which is implying is the
offspring of my imagery. I bring you for an expression
on your face. I listen to words coming from you
where you tell me how well things are going for you.
All this imagery I thinter mingle and blend it and
marry it, and then it produces the result I am
(11:22):
looking for. The result is the offspring of this breathing
of images. That's three fall vision, four fall vision. Whether
you've had it or not, I do not know. I
will share with you and experience I've had it time
will again. But here is what I think. I've told
you this before, but it lends itself to this vision,
(11:46):
and so I want to share it with him. Many
years ago in Beverly Hills, four in the morning, I'm
on my right side, and I know that what I
am seeing I should not see my eyes open. I
should see a little tiny bureau and a picture on
it and on the wall above it just a small
(12:06):
little fiction. But I should not see what I'm seeing.
I am seeing the interior about bury, lush and plush
for tale. I am seeing it as vivily and more
so that I'm seeing you now. And yet yet I
know where I am, and on my day it's in
Beverly Hills on Calcmedo. I am on my right side.
(12:28):
I can feel all this, and I should not be
seeing what I am seeing. But I am seeing it
and I can't deny it. So consciousness follows vision, and
I walked in to my image, and the imas is
just as real as this room. I remembered where the
body was, so I returned to the body, return into
(12:48):
the body, and once more in a horizontal position. Consciousness
again follows vision, and I am now in a vertical position.
I stepped right into this interior. I came back and
went forward back and forth about a dozen times that
I said to myself, I am good to venture, regardless
of the consequences. If I am good to dasire. With
(13:10):
that decision made, I stepped into the interior and then
it closed or run me. I am actually the occupant
of the image, and the room is just as solid
as this room, but I am shut out. There is
no way back to Beverly Hills and Earth and that
body on the bed there. I am an entirely different world.
(13:31):
But the world is solid. I touched the Europe and
it's solid. I touched the walls and they are solid.
That I thought, well, now i'll explore. I'm here for
this purpose. So I came out of this room as
it closed round me, and I came into a large
passageway which laid down to another hallway. I walked to
the end, and then as I got there, it was
(13:53):
quite well lit, and I saw two ladies walking by,
and as they started by, I spoke to them and
I said, ladies, this is the dream Meaner and they
were afraid, as any lady would be afraid if a
total stranger met them in a thought the hallway. And
told them that this is the dream. I know you
would be afraid. And so they either thought were in
(14:14):
the presence of a mad person or something, but they
were startled. But that girl was so solid they couldn't
go through the wall. They wish they could, but they couldn't.
It's a real world. Then I looked out and I
know this over my head a peculiar orner. I have
seen a similar one in nought for Hollywood in her
frame's home at the time. I asked him, how does
(14:37):
this thing remain up? And he said to me, if
you look closely, you will notice an almost but not
quite an almost invisible thread, and is anchored to the
ceiling by that almost invisible fray. It because the illusion
of floating. It was a copper thing, very lightly done,
beautiful leaves, but a very large picture. And so I thought,
(14:59):
now this only a memory image of what I saw
in Hollywood. So this I know is drossma. So I
put my hand on it and I said to the ladies,
I'll show you, ladies. And I really thought that when
I touched it it would disappear. As I held it,
it was solidly real, just like this. I then said
to myself, now never you know exactly how this thing happened.
(15:21):
Your body is in Beverly Hills, on a bed, your
wife is in that day it's a double day. That
house is on Alchamedum and that's in the state of California,
and California is in America. This is a dream, you know,
it's a dream. You're exactly how the whole thing started.
You saw while on the day what you should not
have seen, and you ventured, You stepped into your image,
(15:43):
and the image became real as really as it is
now to you. So wake up. And I said to myself,
come on, break up. And I actually felt myself waking
as it were coming to And I'm breaking fully and
break and I'm standing in the hallway and no possibility
of return. There is no role of bed. I say
(16:04):
to myself, Now you know this is stupid. You have
unfinished business on her. You have a child not yet educated.
She's in high school, and she has the ambition and
the talent to go to college. And so it is
unfinished business when you tomorrow morning, your wife will wait
and the body will be dead, still have the performance
or toxiticails. You won't heal, and they're going to bring
(16:27):
in some kind of a verdict. But whatever the verdict is,
you're dead. And here you are, poor, you alive in
an entirely different world. For standing there, I shut my
eyes and as would happen to anyone else, I couldn't
see anything with my lids clothes, I opened my lips
and here I'm still in this room this poor way,
(16:47):
I didn't settle talks. And then I decided to try
something that once before succeeded in bringing you back. And
that was the sense of tas. That's why I know
beyond all doubt that Blake was right when he said
imagination is spiritual sensation. So standing vertically, I assumed that
(17:07):
my head was on a pillow. I should be assumed,
and then imagine the sensation that I would feel were
it true. And I could feel a pillow, I'm strangely enough,
on feeling a pillow, I had the sensation of being
now on a horizontal level, not hurting. And then I
could feel the pillow. I said to myself, well, and
(17:28):
he sun back. But I'm cataleptic. I could not move
my body. I couldn't move any part. In about say
twenty seconds, I could, with tremendous effort, move this little
think on my left hand. A little while later, I
could move it from the elbow. As I got that motion,
I pushed it out and I felt to my wife's body.
(17:50):
I killed. Then I was bad, but I could lope
my lips. My eye was actually seened. Then maybe another
fifteen twenty five seconds with tremendous effort. I got the
eye open, and there are the familiar objects on the world,
the little picture on the bureau, the bureau, and I'm back.
Then either begin to remove it and then return to normal.
(18:13):
Say that's Paul vision. When you're sitting in a chair
and you see what you certain say, not the familiar objects,
but something entirely different, then you venture now and step
into your image. That's what he makes. Is the spectator
put as into these images in his imagination, approaching them
(18:36):
on the fiery chariot of his contemplated thought. If he
could make a frame and a companion of any one
of these images of London, day he would rise from
the graves. Day he would meet the Lord in the air,
and then he will be happy. That's stepping into the image,
and the image takes on all the qualities of reality,
just as real as this room pair. And you know
(18:59):
beyond all that that nothing dies, you actually see it.
Then nothing passes away, That the world does not come
to an end where my senses ceased to register it.
It could continues, everything continues. And then it brought out
even a little star, a tear, a smile, a tear, Yes,
(19:19):
even the grain of dust passes not away. Nothing passes away.
But he saw the world entirely differently from the world
that appears to us. I saw that world on several occasions.
I've told it and shared it with you too. He said,
Eternity exists, and all things be eternity in depend of
(19:40):
the creation, which was an actimt. You know what it
means everything from the cravle to the grave, that you
have a good experience, as though you saw them all
in individual at the moments. But they are animated. They
could be seen if you saw them from a higher dimension,
unfolding picture, not animated. Now he makes the statement, when
(20:05):
very man enters his cave, he meets his savior in
the grain. Some find a female garment there, and some
are male woven with care lest the section of garments
feet should weave a devouring binding sheet. One dies alas
(20:26):
the living and the dead, one is slain, and one
is played. So when you enter your cave, he's speaking
of the body, and you meets your savior in the grave.
This is the grave, and you actually find there. One
find my mother and my wife, my daughter. They have
fund female garments by my son. My following fund male garments.
(20:48):
But I am not a male, and they are female.
When very man, he capitalizes man. So man is about
the organization of sex. But man entering his cave, why
he says, save it in the grave. And then he
wes o London a female or a male guard. But
he is either female nor male. He's man, and man
(21:11):
is above the organization of sex. So here as we enter,
were seal. And then he said, you do not see
what I say. And then he tells us what he
sees in the furnaces. And then he tells us Luke
was cast into the furnace of affliction and sealed or
(21:31):
lover to him is love, and love is Jesus Christ.
Love is God infinite love. You're meet him right in
the cave when you enter, and there you find your
savior in the grave. He said he was cast see
to this grave and seal, and he calls it furnaces
of affliction. But he tells us it is more a purpose.
(21:53):
And the purpose is to bring perfection to the individual.
Seal over the Savior while in the grave, and he
paints it off bitterly. These states in which you and
I must pass, and pass as a program. The states
remain permanent, but we pass on because we are moving
from state to state to state. So here in this
(22:15):
poor Paul vision and where you have it tonight, it's
the thriller, frills a little disturbing when you have unfinished business.
I assure you. If I didn't want at that moment
to leave behind a wife, unprotected, a daughter uneducated, Yes
I believe a little more. But I didn't feel, as
a husband who loves her, that it was equal to
(22:36):
what I wanted to give up. And so I had
unfinished business, and yet there was no way back. I
am an entirely different world and the world of just
as real asists, and I knew reason going The body
had to be discovered the next day. My bodies are
very seemly solid, but here is a body. I knew.
I left the body in there we hills, and so
(22:57):
I walked. I went back through feeling. I simply sensed
the film. And so when he made the statement in
his letter to doctor Trsna, is it not spiritual sensation?
Is not the Bible addressed to that kin man, which
is all imagination? But I felt it because years before
then I do stepped into an image. I became awake
(23:20):
in the image. As Toro said, real living is to
be in a dream awake. When one is in a dream, awake, well,
this is a dream. And then you wake in the
dream and the dream ceases to be a dream. It's
just like this. If what I did was a dream,
this here is just as much a dream. I assure you,
(23:41):
for that image simply became just like this room. For
once before I found myself in an image, and some
objects in that experience scared me, and I knew exactly
how to get back through the sense of touch, and
I'd try to say, and it worked. If I find
my dreaming now, and I know I'm dreaming, iither have
(24:02):
belonged to dream or wait in the dream through the
sense of touch, and I find if I hold enough
that is not moveable, I wouldn't hold a cat or
a dog or even a person. But I will hold
a station thing that is seemingly inanimate, like a table
or at the inanimate fixed object. And when I hold it,
I don't say to myself, come on, wake, but don't
(24:24):
let go. I will not let go the object, and
not letting it go, I wait. I wait in the image,
and the object is just as real as I knew
it would be when I awake. So what is dreamed
to us when you're in the dream itself? It is
the dream. We speak of a dream and be awake
(24:44):
from the dream, as subjective as we reflect upon the experience.
We said, well, that was a subjective experience, but it
wasn't subjective when you were dreaming. It was very objective
to you with the dreamer. It's only subjective after the experience. Well,
that's what means by poor fall vision. He didn't always
have it, he confessed that. So now I a four
(25:06):
fall vision, see, and a four pole vision is given
to me. It is poorfold in my supreme delight. And
it is but when you can sit quietly in the
trail and leave behind you all the things that day
and step right into an entirely different world, and the
world is just like it's real and people, he says,
(25:27):
sheer delight. Three fall vision is what you and I
call up under practice to bring about changes of states
that don't be loved. So you meet a person and
things aren't going well for right, it doesn't really matter.
He's only in a state, So you represent him to
yourself as other the one he appears to be. Persuade
yourself of the reality of that imaginal act, that another
(25:48):
state altogether relative to him. He will conform to me,
and you will meet him the next day or the
next meet next month, and you will see a change
in his behavior. You will conform to this blending of
imagies in your imagination. Which union creates whatever the union implies,
leading one to the conclusion that CAUs issue is simply
(26:10):
the assemblage of mental states, which occurringe creates that which
the assemblage implies. So your assemble images, what do they imply?
Whatever they imply, or what it created? So always seek
to it that it's going to create something. Love for
the images very plending. If they are occurring invaily creates
what they are in implying. Anyone can do it, and
(26:34):
you're invited to try it. That's what Blake taught, And
from the time that he could breathe he was teaching
the old that he met, the difference between the individual
and states, and begging man not to impute sin and
righteous to the individual, but to the state. He gets
out of a state and he leaves behind him all
that state radiated. When he's in a state, it seems
(26:56):
to be the only reality. When you're not of a state,
seems shadowy, a mere possibility, but not when you're in it.
When you step into an image and an image closes
around you, it's real. I've been altogether just like this
glom mere night. And you can trail yourself to step
into these images and prove the thing that you really are.
(27:18):
You're not confined to the little body of five cents
of all. You are a man all imagination. So when
he say what seems to be is to those to
whom it seems to be and is productive, aw there
was grateful consequences to those to whom it seems to be,
even of despair and eternal death. Said he divine mercy
(27:44):
steps beyond and redeems men in the body of Jesus.
And so he steps right beyond and redeems us. We
can go from state to state to state, but we
cannot save ourselves. Salvation is initiated by God. It is
not given to us us or any good deeds done,
I assure you. On the other hand, it's not given
(28:05):
as due reward for merrick that I assure you. It
is bestowed by grace alone, and that we are told
in the scripture by in virtue of his own lesson,
not because of anything I did, not because of anything
you need. Where you are salvage from this world of states,
the furnaces of oviction, where in mine you didn't earn it.
(28:27):
Not one being the world can earn his own salvation.
But it's going to be given to him by the
mercy of God. And it's called in the scriptured grace,
pure grace unearned. No one could earn it. And Blake's
thought so fair and told us all in spite of
all these states, Laurian states. You could be pure in
(28:49):
your own eye eye, you could be impure in the
eyes of others, But whether you were just or wicked,
it was not to him anything that you could brag about,
because your only states. You've cut into a state and
found yourself in a pure state and taught yourself so
pure the state was, and you, the occupant, activated it.
(29:10):
You animated it, and it became real to you. And
if you liked it and remained in that state, but
you could easier fall into another state, a wicked state.
And when you are in a state, you partake of
the nature of that state, and you animate it and
make it all alive. But you're neither wicked nor pure.
You're just as immortal being putting, putting through the furnaces
(29:33):
of affliction. And you pass through all these furnaces for
a divine reason, to be made perfect as He is perfect.
And when in his eye you are perfect, it brings
you out of it. Divine mercy steps beyond and reduce
man in the body of Jesus. But the fall will
be redeemed because you can't better. And Blake made it
so player. If you haven't read Jerusalem, what a thrill,
(29:56):
what a treat in store for you? They're only one
hundred plates, and a fate doesn't even run a full page,
and so you can really read it in an hour easily.
Some words there be a little bit difficult to gress
because he does involve it by calling a certain attribute
loss or losses imagination, that divine being that remained faithful
(30:21):
to vision in the time of travel. I Putorium battles
the sun. It really is the soul of the animating
principle of everything in this world. And so when you
see through his eyes, you have the experience I have
met late. We are separated in time, but we are
two figures closely woken in this papistry of life. I
(30:41):
met him just about a year ago, and he showed
me exactly how to fall in order to see what
he describes so beautifully. In Jerusalem, I stood perfectly still.
He select yourself go battles, and so I threw myself backwards.
I got back down, and I came whirling through interstellar
space as though I were a medium. And when I
(31:04):
the most was arrested, and I stood still. Here I
am looking at the most wonderful being, and is seen
as I looked at him one being. As I came close,
multitudes of nations are in that being, all races, all nations.
As I look closer, the heart is like glowing brooding,
but it too is made up of numberless races and nations.
(31:26):
I look still closer, and the whole body containing all races.
I'm looking at myself here the face is my face,
and yet in that one being, for all the races,
all the nations are contained. I'm looking rightly to my
own face, and my heart is glowing like broody, but
it contains all women. All these bodies are in And
(31:49):
it was Lake who showed me how to fall backtids
in order to see the vision. And so I tumbled
backwards just like some medium hurling itself through space and
then arrested. That's what I saw. So, although we are
parted in time, he died in eighteen twenty seven and
I was born in nineteen five, So our players never
(32:09):
met on earth, but in the spirit they certainly meets.
And so his visions are my visions. When he said
eternity exists, and all things in eternity independent of creation,
which was an active person, I said exactly what he means.
For one day I stepped in in spirit into a
(32:31):
room unfair dining family of four, two boys in their
twenties early twenties, and father in love. And coming through
the door is the lady bearing through to the table.
Through the huge big glass window. I could see birds
in flight. I could see the ripple of the grass
as the wind blew it. I could see these fouring
(32:53):
father diners didn't attract me, but they were diners, but
they didn't attract me. The wags attracted me, and fill
the flour that attracted me, and the other things that
I've just mentioned. And at that moment, while I'm looking
at the four of them. Something in the depths of
myself knew that if I could arrest in me and
actively that I felt, everything would freeze. I no sooner
(33:18):
knew it than I tried it, And I felt something
geil in my head at that moment that it jailed
and pros in me. Everything there prose, and the waitress
walking walked up, and the diners dying, dying up. I
can see the face now of the young lead yet
a spoon in his hand. He was drinking soup, and
(33:38):
he came this far with his mouth expecting it, and
he couldn't move it. And the waitress could not walk.
And a bird in flight was arrested and it couldn't fall,
and the leaves falling couldn't fall. And suddenly I'm looking
at a world that is dead. Everything is dead, And
where was the nfe of it in me? Now, a
(33:59):
burden flight, if arrested, should fall to the ground, if
the law that we speak of of gravity is in operation.
But the bird didn't fall, and the leagus or unless
a lot of pressure equal to it kept it alive
or kept it afloat, but not the bird. The waitress yet,
if she doesn't if she is arrested, she doesn't have
to fall. But she was prose as though she were
(34:21):
made of play. They could be made of play. And
then I released the activity that I had arrested, and
I did so each continued in their course, and the
waitress walked, and he completed the action of breaking his soup,
and the bird, which was perfectly still continted the action
of flight, and the leaguers continued to fall, and once
for all became animated. That's what he meant. The eternity exists,
(34:45):
and all things in eternity independent of creation, which was
an active messy. And so we are inserted into this
dead body, this eternal death, and then we animated, and
eventually we will come out of it with light in ourselves,
or we are told, as the Father has light in himselves,
so he is gravely the son also to have right
(35:08):
in himself. And the purpose of it all is to
simply awaken sons who have light in themselves, and not
simply animated parts of the structure of the universe. One
day a lady asked me concerning animals, but I didn't
know the answer. He said, never, what is the future
evolution of the animal world. I am very fond of animals,
(35:30):
and I hate to see them destroyed. So what is
the future evolution of the animal? But I didn't know
the answer. I could have given her some theory, but
I could not speak. Then from experience two nights laden,
I find myself on the top of a ladder. I'm
looking down. Here is the jungle wild beasts, I mean
(35:50):
really wile, tidle, lion ant, everything that is greedy, which
will call the wild beast of the jungle, and they
are in an angry mood. Whole is moving, strong, shopping beast.
I am alone at the top of a ladder. At
the moment, I'm a little bit apprehensive and a little
concern for my own safety. And as I was concerned
(36:12):
and apprehensive, that became all the more angry. Then in
the depths of my soul again I knew, as though
something cristal, but no one Cristal. I knew that they
were only externalized the emotions of myself, that there's simply
poll witness of my only emotions. When I lost all
fail they became docile like housecats. Then I went further,
(36:36):
as I would now repeat it, I would arrest within
me the activity that makes them alive. And once more
I arrested, and in my headed jail, I went down
that entire ladder. They were made of play, but as
their play, they were solid, just as I walked into
a museum and solving these things carved beautifuy by some
great sculptor. That's what they were all dead. And then
(36:59):
I went back up the lanel releases that pivty and
once more that came into animation and their move that
living beast to the jumper. So I know experience today
the whole vast world, as Blake said, all that you behold,
though it appears without, it is within in your imagination,
of which this world of mortality is but a shadow.
(37:21):
And I know it. I've experienced it. So I tell you,
if you haven't experienced it, you're pot me. Well, that's
the purpose of being here, and you will find the
whole thing is within you. It's not out their gon
and me. If you would like me to be improved
beyond what I'd seen to be in your eyes now
and in your own minds mine's eye, make me all
(37:42):
the greater if that's what you want for me. If
you want me to come back next year, bring in
something far deeper than this. Yere see the in that light.
Don't do it with my consent, Do it without my
consent if that's your desire for it. If I desire
for you, knowing that you will be limited, is to
see you free of this limitation without your knowledge, without
your consent, I should, knowing the difference between you and states,
(38:07):
I should create the state I want to see you
it'spless in this world, and put you in that state
so right now, to see you as you would like
to see yourself. And I remain faithful to that vision
of you. Come back next year to encounter you in
that state, or you will write me, or others would
write me to tell me of a transformed being that
you seem to be. It works that way. Always bear
(38:29):
in mind the distinction between you, the immortal you, and
the state you occupy, because you know you could easily
fall into the state to an argument through a headline
in the paper. You can fall into it in some
other way and think you are it, and you are
is at all. You are the immortal being that one
(38:50):
day it will be defetched from the furnace of afriction
and being brought out. You are one with your father,
who is God, and you are heat. So Blake to
me is a spiritual giant, one of the truly awakened gods.
And when your mession he looks like some super terrestu
(39:10):
beam when you see him, a giant of a man.
And if he wasn't any giant there, but he was radiant.
A man is raidant, just completely awake among the gods.
So well your tell in the eighty second song, and
God is taking his place in the divine council in
the midst of the gods. He holds out Blake. If
(39:33):
in the midst of the gods. When I travel now,
I'm leaving here a Sunday, I take back my three books.
One I've got just to show my friend's freedom. The
other few of my constant companions. And one is Blake
and the other is the Violent. I'll be flying to
New York from the fifteenth September. I'll be carrying two books,
(39:54):
one with the Blake complete words, and one you, my Viole.
That's all I will be carrying. It's my constant companion.
First of all, the joy of reading Blade with his
use of English, that fantest the use of English. All
weading in the imagination, and so no one outside the
Bible has given to the world as much as break
(40:16):
when it comes to the secret of imagine how to
do it. And so these four visions of his the
four phone, the threefold, the twofold, and the single, while
the single is simply any normal physical side where its
thing is what it appears to be, and nothing more
that single vision. And he prayed to be saved from
(40:38):
single vision. Because everything has a meaning in God's world.
I used to sit in the parm years ago with
my old friend Aldula, and as if two people walked by,
it had meaning. It was male and female, and different
if two made it different. Birds in flight, and he
gave meaning to all the moving, animated states of God's
(40:58):
world a different language. God is speaking every moment of time,
he say to every one of us, but we can't
see it. We do not understand the language of God.
It's all spoken in symbolism. And the birds in flight
reveal something to add I will see app yet up
and he wasn't superficious. He got up at a certain
(41:19):
moment when something passed by. He could interpret the language
of God. Others couldn't. And there was reasons for this
getting up. As time proved, he simply moved from what
soon thereafter was an accident, but he moved. Everything is
meaning in this world for everything the very beginning of
(41:40):
the Book of John. In the beginning was the word,
while the Greek word lovers, that is translating word has
the meaning meaning. So you could say, in the beginning
was meaning, and meaning was with God, and meaning was God.
There is a meaning. There's a purpose, a plane behind
everything in this world, and eventually you and I will
(42:01):
understand it. I assure you the whole vast world, if
you could arrest your power now, which stands still, absolutely
still the only work outside of lakes and one little
passid in my book where I try to recalled experience
that I've ever seen, it was in the apart the
(42:21):
New Testament of the Gospel of James. And here in
the Book of James the words are put into the
mouth of Joseph the night of the Birth of Christ,
where he goes in search of a Hebrew midwife because
he wants it for his wine. And as he starts,
the heavens stood still, and the shepherds tending their clock
(42:44):
death stood still, and the little lamb is drinking stood still,
and the main eating stood still, and everything was frozen
as though dead, and then suddenly all moved on in
their cross. So it's the only recorded thing that it all,
and that's in the Book of James. But the Apocatabook
of James, and you can get it the Apote the
(43:07):
New Testament, and look up as it called the infant Gospels,
and look up the one under the Gospel of James.
This was experience given as an experience of Joseph, where
the night that he was born as Christ, then the
heavens stood still. Well, that's the power that he tastes
(43:28):
it of the age to come. For that's the power
you're wield in the age, guitar. You taste it now,
just glimpses of it, because you're rising into a world
completely subthing to your imaginative power. So if you haven't
read Lake, may I beg you to get a coffee
(43:49):
and read him. You may not understand in the very
first moment, but reread them and keep on rereading them.
First of all for your Well, if you like English,
just for the joy of reading good English, leave Blake.
Few can take words and do with words what Blake
(44:10):
did and left for the world. So two hundred years
ago he made its entrance, and then that's to us.
Although he himself was completely unknown, and you mentioned anyone
in the day when he walked in earth, and they're
completely unknown today. But Blake has become known, and he
(44:33):
goes bigger and bigger every year in the eyes of
those who understand good literature. And those who are considered
great in his day are completely today unknown, because the
King of England in both days is simply mayor George.
And we only go in today because he lost, of
which we are very thankful that he lost it. But
(44:55):
he lost his greatest colony, which was a mife. We
are very great that he did. But he was as
mad as a happer, and he's only known for that,
for his madness. While Blake was not mad, but because
of his visions. They called him then and said the
man is mad, because he spoke of these mortal eyes
could not see. Yet the same who called him man
(45:18):
will read the Bible. What can you conceive of the
description of God on his throne has described this in
the sixth chapter of Isaiah. And he held the look
the most hides sitting on his throne, and he paints
the picture. Can you conceive of any camera man photograph
in it? He got to take the words of Isaiah,
(45:40):
because you couldn't postly take some ananimous there and have
him decept God and his throne. And you couldn't take
any camera man who could photograph the vision of Isaiah
was was he mad? We had it in the book
and he read it all the time. All the visions
recorded that the Bible could not be photographed. And so
because he could not photograph his own say, he could
(46:01):
do them or he had the talent to dob them
what they called him man when he dow the flea
and drew the free like a man, a monstrous man.
But the next that wasn't a neck. The head was
simply stuck on. Shows yes, but he was trying to
put over a marvelous lesson to him. A flea is
(46:24):
a blood sucking insect. Well, any man who takes the
lifelode of another, who works for less than a man
really should be paid. He's taking his dog. He doesn't
get on the man and actually suck nude. But there
was a day, there's still a day when a man
doesn't pay what he's worth, and yet the man is
(46:45):
using him. That man goes home to a wife and
children need food, need to be educated. And he's not
being properly paid. Isn't he the employer a blood sucking insect?
Or that's the flea? What Blake? That is? Everything is man.
So the little free is only a protection of a
that sucking man. So everyone in the world could look
(47:09):
at that pictures a monster's picture, and he got everything
into it. And he said he saw the ghost of
the free, and the ghost of the fleeing was man.
For there's nothing but man. I saw. The animal world
is going to be Man's emotions be physical. When man
arrests in him the life that makes them alive, they
all stand and they're dead. The whole vast world one
(47:31):
day will be esteemed by you I steal. And then
you know the words of Blake internity exists, and all
things in eternity independent of creation, which wasn't active mist.
And so we are being molded and shaped on this
populous world of stakes by the uncreated God. Here the
(47:53):
uncreated shapes himself upon the mole that is permanent. Now
let us go in of the silence, have already questions
(48:15):
this I didn't quite hear you, my dear. Yes, my dear,
(48:35):
I'm convinced of it. But consciousness is the one and
only reality. Really, But the world is fixed, it really
is fixed in a dead state. But the living state
is your own consciousness. And you can feel it, not
just to be aware of it, if you can actually
feel it, and stop it and stop, if any will come,
you stop and start everything in this world. What the
(49:01):
next scene is going to be, I do not know.
I really do not know, but I glimpses of it,
and I've tasted that the power of the age to
be justice. Well, the man in this world cannot exercise
that power. But I saw people dining, and they seem
(49:27):
to be completely independent of my perception of them. They
seem to have freedom of choice in art of drinking
the supernot drinking the waiter, that is, the waitress coming
from the door. But I first came into the room, well,
reason told me everything I saw was actually independence of
my perception of them. But then I knew differently. One
(49:49):
second later, I knew that they had no life in themselves,
that the life was in me. So I arrested that
life in me, and they were dead, and this action
would have been there forever if I had not released
that right in me. I cannot on a scene that
was animated and seemingly independent of my perception of it.
(50:11):
But it wasn't because I discovered one second later that
I could arrest an activity in me and it would freeze.
And it did. And the word as I said, the
bird in flight, should a bird in flight wetip arrested,
the motion arrested, should it not fall if the log
gravity is true? But it didn't. I could have held
(50:33):
it very definitely because the motion was breeding in me.
And one night the voice said to me. At the
time I could not understand. But the voice is never
lying to me. So in the depth of my soul,
a voices speaking, you do not move in a week
any more than you move on your aid in seat.
(50:55):
It is all a movement in mind, or the google
in mind. I knew that I came to pay that
night from the living room. I knew the next order
to get out of that brain. I go to the
living room. I will leave the house that day and
go elsewhere. And I've done that for all these years.
(51:16):
And the boss is telling me, you do not move
in waking anymore than you move your bed in sleep.
It's all a google to mine. You only think you move,
will you wake as you think you move in sleep?
For then to encountain the depths of my soul I'm
meditating their book, and to discover that he is meditating me,
(51:38):
and he is the reality that is causing the seeming motion,
but he isn't moving. So was the voice speaking to
that depth for my soul that is there in meditation?
As Young said, when he saw himself, he was afraid,
and he will a frightened because he said to himself,
so he is the one who is meditating me. He
(52:00):
has a dream, and I am it. And then he said, hum,
And I knew when he awakened, I would no longer
be so, but still meditating you caused eighty nine years
of seeming motion all over this world. But the being
he encountered when he was then sixty nine years old
was there before he came from his mother's womb meditating him.
(52:24):
He was dreaming of an experience in three dimensions, which
he needed for increased awareness to further his own self realization.
But he the meditating being was not moving, and that
he was the cause of Young's experience of sixty nine
years and be young for another twenty years before he
died of eighty nine. But then the voice is telling
(52:44):
me the truth. For the voice wasn't speaking the lizard
of thing here this is the garment that I am winning.
So the voice was addressing itself to the depth of
my soul. You do not move in Awaken any more
than your move when you're dating his need. It's all
a movement in mind. Only think you move, would you
make as you think you in green? Well? I recorded
(53:09):
the words, but I couldn't understand the words. Yeah, the
voice is never like me. So these revelations can come
beyond one's capacity to fully understand. But you will grow
into the understand because you will give you another experience
and another experience, and finally it unravels itself and you
(53:29):
will see how true the voice was when you record
it as scripture. All these things will recall it in
the thirty nine books of the Old Testament, but they
would not understood it any more than there understood today.
It took the New test but to manifest the great
secret hidden in the Old and to the state of
(53:51):
people who will not believe that it happened, but it's
all stated, but the very ones who recorded it couldn't
understand it. I was confessed that the prophets sought and
inquired and asked what question of time was indicated by
the spirit of Christ within them when predicting the signs
(54:11):
of price and the consequent glory. And they were told
then it was not for their time but for hours.
But they were asking me an inquiry that no voice
answered their inquiry. They couldn't understand, but they recorded faithfully
what the boy said, dictating for our age, for our time.
(54:36):
Any other questions piece, yes, did I move in the
depth of my soul? That being is still unnosed. But
the illusion of emotion I am experiencing in three dimensions
with the garment that I'm wearing a male garment. I
(54:57):
have the illusion now when you wake me tomorrow morning,
when you're dead, If you have a dream tonight, then
you will dream. You may not remember it. But if
tomorrow morning you wake remembering the dream and the dream
is very active, you'll have to confess to yourself if
this thing is the real. Still really didn't move, did you?
(55:17):
But while the dream lasted it seems so real, and
you're certainly moving much in the dream. But if reason
enters on reflection, also that's the city. I could not
have moved because I went to bed here last time,
and here I am on the same day, the same room.
So did I move? And you're going to tell yourself, no,
(55:37):
you didn't. Really you had a movement in mind or
the mind, if you'll say, but what the mind did it?
But you were closed to yourself. You could be hurted
a dream and have the sensation of pain and witness
an accent. It could even be fatal in the dream.
But when you make it over, just the dream that
(55:58):
for all the movements that I experienced, he must have
been in mind. While they'll be awake from this dream,
this will be the same thing. Or he will awake
one day and this, on reflection will be as much
a dream as tomorrow morning's reflection on the night's dream.
So the point that is all that we see or
(56:18):
seen but a dream within a dream, beggar allan Poe,
and he came to the conclusion, Yes, it's all that
be seen or seen, but a dream within a dream.
And the day will tell that dreamer who madpated you
into seeming reality will awake from the experience which he
(56:40):
imposed upon himself, and you will be heate. But they awake,
and reflecting on the experience that lasted seemingly thousands of
years by our little time, will be looking just the
experience of the dream that he imposed for a depth
of purpose, to simply further his own self realization. And
(57:00):
therefore you will know that you haven't moved. You will
awaken from the shouting prose stillness and beamed of motion,
and all the experiences that you and I in funt
hid the world have flesh and blood, and you will awaken,
and then it will be to you like the dream
(57:21):
of tonight will be to you tomorrow morning. But the
voice is there, wode to But when I hear it,
if it speaks with an authorning from the great depths
of the soul, and you hear it, and you simply listen,
and you'll recall what will tell whether you want to
stand it or not. Then comes experiences where you can't
(57:42):
deny the experience. The experience of seeing people's hands still
when I arrested an activity in me is an experience
that I cannot deny. And the experience is not less
vivid than the experience of today. I had a very
pleasant day of mine to lunch today, and a friend
of mine took me to dinner tonight. And there are pleasant,
(58:05):
wonderful meetings. Well, they're not any more real now their
memory images. The dinner is a memory image, and the
lunch isn't a memory image. But they're not real when
I experienced it. But they're not more vividly real in
my mind's eye now. Now, this experience of en conquering
dinas standing still. When I arrested an activity in me
(58:27):
that che is a memory image, but when I did it,
it was a still as today's suns was spill. So
in the end, that voice is going to prove itself true.
For I encountered myself seated being the Lotus postule. I
looked at him. There's nevil. They are radiantly beautiful man
(58:48):
with a character that this little level does not possess.
There was majesty, there was sprinkive character, There was nobility
in that faith, everything that could be desired by anyone.
Yet it was there, and he was completely undisturbed by
my staring at him. I encountered the being that is
meditating me and it is still, and it will seated
(59:11):
in a lotus postule, completely unmoved by my interests and
my surprise, And when he really moves from that seat,
I will no longer be But I am well, we're
(59:33):
here on Sunday morning, and that will be our last
for a year. But that you repeat is not the
last of the message or freedom barriers in our mixed
and I think you all know it. Okay, let me
ask you the peace. Take one of his cards and
read it. It gives you all the information that you
will need to concerning the cats all gay. Thank you,
Is Blake on religion. William Blake was born in England
in seventeen fifty seven and died there seventy years later,
eighteen twenty seven. Blake never went to school, and yet
(00:22):
today any one familiar with the English language, it asked
to make a list of the six ragious uses of
the town, could not. If he's familiar with the language,
he could not admit the name of Blake in any
(00:45):
list of six. I asked that question if all this
hunt stay about five or six years ago, And he
said to me, just what I've just said to you,
No one familion English literature, all the way back to Chaucer, Chaucer, Spencer, Milton, Shakespeare.
(01:07):
You might alter the list somewhat, but I said, no
one could omit the name of Blake in any list
of six of the greatest users of the English dye.
And he never saw the inside abus cool he taught himself.
Hebrewn Greek Battalian. Of course he was the master of
(01:31):
the English dae. He had his vision for the time
with the child, and when he died he was still
commuting with the world of returnity. Really he was singing hymns,
and he said, they're not mine. They belonged that there
was eternity. They're not really mine. He said, Of religion,
(01:54):
I know of no other Christianity, and of no other
Gospel Father, than the liberty both of body and mind
to exercise the divine arts of imagination, imagination the real
and eternal world, of which this vegetable universe is but
(02:17):
a faint shadow, and into which we shall go in
our eternal or imaginative bodies, when these vegetable mortal bodies
are normal. There is no one who is given more
this world concerned the secret of imagining than Blake, unless,
(02:39):
of course, he speaks of the Bible. For the Bible
to him was pure vision from beginning to end. It
was his text book. And so he asked, this very
founded man of the day, why is it that the
Bible is more agitating and instructive any other book? And
(03:02):
then he answered the man, is it not? Because it
is addressed to the imagination, which is spiritual sensation, and
only immediately to the understanding or reason. So to him
the book was pure revelation, God's word. He wrote what
(03:23):
he considered the grandest poem of the world, Jerusalem. He said,
I now praise it because I am only the secondary.
Its authors are in eternity. Here, in a very short
period of time, Blake completed this grand Boy. He said,
(03:43):
it was dictated to me sometimes twelve, sometimes twenty, and
thirty verses from verses that lines at a time. So
here I work that should have taken a lifetime of labor,
came without labor in so short a period of time.
And he starts in the beginning, and he states the
(04:04):
theme before he allows the dictation. And the theme is
sad in the very first two lines of the sleep
of hour, how is this world? And of the passage
through eternal death and of the awakening to eternal life.
They say this theme calls night after night in sleeping,
(04:29):
and every morning awakes me at sunrise. Then I see
the spirit of my shavior hovering over me and dictating
the words of this Miles song. The spirit of love
he is saving, hovering and dictating twelve twenty thirty lines
of the time. And then the victation begins with an
(04:52):
appeal to man awake of sleeper of the line of shadows, wake, expaire,
I am in you and you and me mutual in love, divine.
But then said he the perturbed mayor away turns down
(05:14):
the valley's darn. He can't believe it. And many imputes
sin and righteousness to individuals and not to states. To
understand Lake, you've got to draw a line of demarcation
between the individual, the immortal youth, and the states the
present station of that individual, he said. As the problem
(05:38):
passes while the country permanent remains. So man passed on,
but states remain permanent forever. So we must distinguish between
the state and the individual occupying that state. To understand Lake,
(06:00):
if all that you behold, though it appears without, it
is within in your imagination, of which this world of
mortality is but a shadow. And he constantly reminds the
reader never to contain any one of this world poor sad.
I do not consider that just or the wicked to
(06:21):
be in a supreme state, but to be stating of
the sleep which the soul may fall into in its
deadly dreams of good and evil. So come Lord Jesus
and creating states to deliver man. Evermore, you see someone
who is not feeding, well, maybe he's up against it financially,
(06:42):
maybe things aren't going. Is the thought to go? That's
a state if you know the difference between the individual
in that state and a former state or a future
state that you can create. You can lift him out
by representing that individual to yourself. You will like to
see him and put him in that state. Do it
(07:03):
without this knowledge, do it without his consent. You can
do it. You can create a state and pour people
out of horrible states into lovely states. Lead them in
the lovely state, and they will simply occupy it beautifully.
And to then you will get the only state. The
only reveal thing is but thirteen at the moment when
you pull them into it, and he shows us how civil.
(07:25):
He said, I have four fall vision see and a
fourfole vision is given to me. His four pole in
my supreme delight, and three poll in soft Vieler's night.
His two pole alls may God, a skip from single
vision and mutant sleep. Single vision to him will simply
(07:49):
the ordinary physical site where this is what appears to be,
and nothing more. Double vision is made. Everything is but
a civil told her the story the morning I opened up.
The little girl five years old. Well, her is the
sister who was three this past year, taken to the
(08:09):
beach by her grandmother in the beach or out of
the sea were piles driven into the sand, marking some bunkley.
And she turns to the grandmother. She said, Grandma, looked
sticks bathing, for I struck the mother family, the grandmother,
and she recorded it and told me about it. But
(08:30):
this little child, not yet painting with the adult mind,
soft sticks bathing. They were not simply piles in the sand, unsightly.
Not to her, she rejoiced and dished at the moment
she wore a stick and out of that water bathing
with the sex because the then, or to the little mind,
she endowed the sticks with animation, with something alive, and
(08:53):
they were bathing. That's double dias And he speaks of it.
To my output eye, it's an old It is simply
a heather or a thistle along the way. But with
my inward eye, it's an old man gray. But did
the flower He saw a flower of the outer eye,
and with the inner arm saw something entirely different. Don't
(09:14):
you practice said, you look at something along the way
and you see it entirely different. He said, I wait
to the heath and the wild, to the thawns and
the thistles of the way. And they told me how
they were beguiled, driven out, and then compelled to be chastened.
(09:36):
He called it fair. Things were the outward eye, a
thistle and a thorn, and he communed with a thistle
in the thaw, and they spoke to him and told
him that they were simply the embodiment of the suppressed longings,
of the normal longings of the human art. He communed
with them and they spoke. All this was double vision.
(10:00):
Now three four vision. You must practice. Practice is to night.
Everyone must assure practices. What the little girl did, that's
three four vision. She imagined herself in a living room
with all glass balls. That's an image. The room is
an image, and she is an image. The mother is
an image of all that she did. She blended and
(10:20):
inter mental images. She married her and then their produced offspring.
The offspring was the results in the world where the
home was bought by her father. She did not consult
the father. She simply toed up her mother into a
confidence and together they played the part. And then the
pardon had a change of jobs, increase income, and he
(10:42):
bought the home. So that is threefold vision. If I
bring him into my mind's eye and represents you to
myself as I would like to see them and persuade
myself of the reality of this imaginal act of mine.
That's three four vision. What does it imply? What it
implies with forty for you? So I'm doing something which
(11:02):
will imply something else. That which is implying is the
offspring of my imagery. I bring you for an expression
on your face. I listen to words coming from you
where you tell me how well things are going for you.
All this imagery I thinter mingle and blend it and
marry it, and then it produces the result I am
(11:22):
looking for. The result is the offspring of this breathing
of images. That's three fall vision, four fall vision. Whether
you've had it or not, I do not know. I
will share with you and experience I've had it time
will again. But here is what I think. I've told
you this before, but it lends itself to this vision,
(11:46):
and so I want to share it with him. Many
years ago in Beverly Hills, four in the morning, I'm
on my right side, and I know that what I
am seeing I should not see my eyes open. I
should see a little tiny bureau and a picture on
it and on the wall above it just a small
(12:06):
little fiction. But I should not see what I'm seeing.
I am seeing the interior about bury, lush and plush
for tale. I am seeing it as vivily and more
so that I'm seeing you now. And yet yet I
know where I am, and on my day it's in
Beverly Hills on Calcmedo. I am on my right side.
(12:28):
I can feel all this, and I should not be
seeing what I am seeing. But I am seeing it
and I can't deny it. So consciousness follows vision, and
I walked in to my image, and the imas is
just as real as this room. I remembered where the
body was, so I returned to the body, return into
(12:48):
the body, and once more in a horizontal position. Consciousness
again follows vision, and I am now in a vertical position.
I stepped right into this interior. I came back and
went forward back and forth about a dozen times that
I said to myself, I am good to venture, regardless
of the consequences. If I am good to dasire. With
(13:10):
that decision made, I stepped into the interior and then
it closed or run me. I am actually the occupant
of the image, and the room is just as solid
as this room, but I am shut out. There is
no way back to Beverly Hills and Earth and that
body on the bed there. I am an entirely different world.
(13:31):
But the world is solid. I touched the Europe and
it's solid. I touched the walls and they are solid.
That I thought, well, now i'll explore. I'm here for
this purpose. So I came out of this room as
it closed round me, and I came into a large
passageway which laid down to another hallway. I walked to
the end, and then as I got there, it was
(13:53):
quite well lit, and I saw two ladies walking by,
and as they started by, I spoke to them and
I said, ladies, this is the dream Meaner and they
were afraid, as any lady would be afraid if a
total stranger met them in a thought the hallway. And
told them that this is the dream. I know you
would be afraid. And so they either thought were in
(14:14):
the presence of a mad person or something, but they
were startled. But that girl was so solid they couldn't
go through the wall. They wish they could, but they couldn't.
It's a real world. Then I looked out and I
know this over my head a peculiar orner. I have
seen a similar one in nought for Hollywood in her
frame's home at the time. I asked him, how does
(14:37):
this thing remain up? And he said to me, if
you look closely, you will notice an almost but not
quite an almost invisible thread, and is anchored to the
ceiling by that almost invisible fray. It because the illusion
of floating. It was a copper thing, very lightly done,
beautiful leaves, but a very large picture. And so I thought,
(14:59):
now this only a memory image of what I saw
in Hollywood. So this I know is drossma. So I
put my hand on it and I said to the ladies,
I'll show you, ladies. And I really thought that when
I touched it it would disappear. As I held it,
it was solidly real, just like this. I then said
to myself, now never you know exactly how this thing happened.
(15:21):
Your body is in Beverly Hills, on a bed, your
wife is in that day it's a double day. That
house is on Alchamedum and that's in the state of California,
and California is in America. This is a dream, you know,
it's a dream. You're exactly how the whole thing started.
You saw while on the day what you should not
have seen, and you ventured, You stepped into your image,
(15:43):
and the image became real as really as it is
now to you. So wake up. And I said to myself,
come on, break up. And I actually felt myself waking
as it were coming to And I'm breaking fully and
break and I'm standing in the hallway and no possibility
of return. There is no role of bed. I say
(16:04):
to myself, Now you know this is stupid. You have
unfinished business on her. You have a child not yet educated.
She's in high school, and she has the ambition and
the talent to go to college. And so it is
unfinished business when you tomorrow morning, your wife will wait
and the body will be dead, still have the performance
or toxiticails. You won't heal, and they're going to bring
(16:27):
in some kind of a verdict. But whatever the verdict is,
you're dead. And here you are, poor, you alive in
an entirely different world. For standing there, I shut my
eyes and as would happen to anyone else, I couldn't
see anything with my lids clothes, I opened my lips
and here I'm still in this room this poor way,
(16:47):
I didn't settle talks. And then I decided to try
something that once before succeeded in bringing you back. And
that was the sense of tas. That's why I know
beyond all doubt that Blake was right when he said
imagination is spiritual sensation. So standing vertically, I assumed that
(17:07):
my head was on a pillow. I should be assumed,
and then imagine the sensation that I would feel were
it true. And I could feel a pillow, I'm strangely enough,
on feeling a pillow, I had the sensation of being
now on a horizontal level, not hurting. And then I
could feel the pillow. I said to myself, well, and
(17:28):
he sun back. But I'm cataleptic. I could not move
my body. I couldn't move any part. In about say
twenty seconds, I could, with tremendous effort, move this little
think on my left hand. A little while later, I
could move it from the elbow. As I got that motion,
I pushed it out and I felt to my wife's body.
(17:50):
I killed. Then I was bad, but I could lope
my lips. My eye was actually seened. Then maybe another
fifteen twenty five seconds with tremendous effort. I got the
eye open, and there are the familiar objects on the world,
the little picture on the bureau, the bureau, and I'm back.
Then either begin to remove it and then return to normal.
(18:13):
Say that's Paul vision. When you're sitting in a chair
and you see what you certain say, not the familiar objects,
but something entirely different, then you venture now and step
into your image. That's what he makes. Is the spectator
put as into these images in his imagination, approaching them
(18:36):
on the fiery chariot of his contemplated thought. If he
could make a frame and a companion of any one
of these images of London, day he would rise from
the graves. Day he would meet the Lord in the air,
and then he will be happy. That's stepping into the image,
and the image takes on all the qualities of reality,
just as real as this room pair. And you know
(18:59):
beyond all that that nothing dies, you actually see it.
Then nothing passes away, That the world does not come
to an end where my senses ceased to register it.
It could continues, everything continues. And then it brought out
even a little star, a tear, a smile, a tear, Yes,
(19:19):
even the grain of dust passes not away. Nothing passes away.
But he saw the world entirely differently from the world
that appears to us. I saw that world on several occasions.
I've told it and shared it with you too. He said,
Eternity exists, and all things be eternity in depend of
(19:40):
the creation, which was an actimt. You know what it
means everything from the cravle to the grave, that you
have a good experience, as though you saw them all
in individual at the moments. But they are animated. They
could be seen if you saw them from a higher dimension,
unfolding picture, not animated. Now he makes the statement, when
(20:05):
very man enters his cave, he meets his savior in
the grain. Some find a female garment there, and some
are male woven with care lest the section of garments
feet should weave a devouring binding sheet. One dies alas
(20:26):
the living and the dead, one is slain, and one
is played. So when you enter your cave, he's speaking
of the body, and you meets your savior in the grave.
This is the grave, and you actually find there. One
find my mother and my wife, my daughter. They have
fund female garments by my son. My following fund male garments.
(20:48):
But I am not a male, and they are female.
When very man, he capitalizes man. So man is about
the organization of sex. But man entering his cave, why
he says, save it in the grave. And then he
wes o London a female or a male guard. But
he is either female nor male. He's man, and man
(21:11):
is above the organization of sex. So here as we enter,
were seal. And then he said, you do not see
what I say. And then he tells us what he
sees in the furnaces. And then he tells us Luke
was cast into the furnace of affliction and sealed or
(21:31):
lover to him is love, and love is Jesus Christ.
Love is God infinite love. You're meet him right in
the cave when you enter, and there you find your
savior in the grave. He said he was cast see
to this grave and seal, and he calls it furnaces
of affliction. But he tells us it is more a purpose.
(21:53):
And the purpose is to bring perfection to the individual.
Seal over the Savior while in the grave, and he
paints it off bitterly. These states in which you and
I must pass, and pass as a program. The states
remain permanent, but we pass on because we are moving
from state to state to state. So here in this
(22:15):
poor Paul vision and where you have it tonight, it's
the thriller, frills a little disturbing when you have unfinished business.
I assure you. If I didn't want at that moment
to leave behind a wife, unprotected, a daughter uneducated, Yes
I believe a little more. But I didn't feel, as
a husband who loves her, that it was equal to
(22:36):
what I wanted to give up. And so I had
unfinished business, and yet there was no way back. I
am an entirely different world and the world of just
as real asists, and I knew reason going The body
had to be discovered the next day. My bodies are
very seemly solid, but here is a body. I knew.
I left the body in there we hills, and so
(22:57):
I walked. I went back through feeling. I simply sensed
the film. And so when he made the statement in
his letter to doctor Trsna, is it not spiritual sensation?
Is not the Bible addressed to that kin man, which
is all imagination? But I felt it because years before
then I do stepped into an image. I became awake
(23:20):
in the image. As Toro said, real living is to
be in a dream awake. When one is in a dream, awake, well,
this is a dream. And then you wake in the
dream and the dream ceases to be a dream. It's
just like this. If what I did was a dream,
this here is just as much a dream. I assure you,
(23:41):
for that image simply became just like this room. For
once before I found myself in an image, and some
objects in that experience scared me, and I knew exactly
how to get back through the sense of touch, and
I'd try to say, and it worked. If I find
my dreaming now, and I know I'm dreaming, iither have
(24:02):
belonged to dream or wait in the dream through the
sense of touch, and I find if I hold enough
that is not moveable, I wouldn't hold a cat or
a dog or even a person. But I will hold
a station thing that is seemingly inanimate, like a table
or at the inanimate fixed object. And when I hold it,
I don't say to myself, come on, wake, but don't
(24:24):
let go. I will not let go the object, and
not letting it go, I wait. I wait in the image,
and the object is just as real as I knew
it would be when I awake. So what is dreamed
to us when you're in the dream itself? It is
the dream. We speak of a dream and be awake
(24:44):
from the dream, as subjective as we reflect upon the experience.
We said, well, that was a subjective experience, but it
wasn't subjective when you were dreaming. It was very objective
to you with the dreamer. It's only subjective after the experience. Well,
that's what means by poor fall vision. He didn't always
have it, he confessed that. So now I a four
(25:06):
fall vision, see, and a four pole vision is given
to me. It is poorfold in my supreme delight. And
it is but when you can sit quietly in the
trail and leave behind you all the things that day
and step right into an entirely different world, and the
world is just like it's real and people, he says,
(25:27):
sheer delight. Three fall vision is what you and I
call up under practice to bring about changes of states
that don't be loved. So you meet a person and
things aren't going well for right, it doesn't really matter.
He's only in a state, So you represent him to
yourself as other the one he appears to be. Persuade
yourself of the reality of that imaginal act, that another
(25:48):
state altogether relative to him. He will conform to me,
and you will meet him the next day or the
next meet next month, and you will see a change
in his behavior. You will conform to this blending of
imagies in your imagination. Which union creates whatever the union implies,
leading one to the conclusion that CAUs issue is simply
(26:10):
the assemblage of mental states, which occurringe creates that which
the assemblage implies. So your assemble images, what do they imply?
Whatever they imply, or what it created? So always seek
to it that it's going to create something. Love for
the images very plending. If they are occurring invaily creates
what they are in implying. Anyone can do it, and
(26:34):
you're invited to try it. That's what Blake taught, And
from the time that he could breathe he was teaching
the old that he met, the difference between the individual
and states, and begging man not to impute sin and
righteous to the individual, but to the state. He gets
out of a state and he leaves behind him all
that state radiated. When he's in a state, it seems
(26:56):
to be the only reality. When you're not of a state,
seems shadowy, a mere possibility, but not when you're in it.
When you step into an image and an image closes
around you, it's real. I've been altogether just like this
glom mere night. And you can trail yourself to step
into these images and prove the thing that you really are.
(27:18):
You're not confined to the little body of five cents
of all. You are a man all imagination. So when
he say what seems to be is to those to
whom it seems to be and is productive, aw there
was grateful consequences to those to whom it seems to be,
even of despair and eternal death. Said he divine mercy
(27:44):
steps beyond and redeems men in the body of Jesus.
And so he steps right beyond and redeems us. We
can go from state to state to state, but we
cannot save ourselves. Salvation is initiated by God. It is
not given to us us or any good deeds done,
I assure you. On the other hand, it's not given
(28:05):
as due reward for merrick that I assure you. It
is bestowed by grace alone, and that we are told
in the scripture by in virtue of his own lesson,
not because of anything I did, not because of anything
you need. Where you are salvage from this world of states,
the furnaces of oviction, where in mine you didn't earn it.
(28:27):
Not one being the world can earn his own salvation.
But it's going to be given to him by the
mercy of God. And it's called in the scriptured grace,
pure grace unearned. No one could earn it. And Blake's
thought so fair and told us all in spite of
all these states, Laurian states. You could be pure in
(28:49):
your own eye eye, you could be impure in the
eyes of others, But whether you were just or wicked,
it was not to him anything that you could brag about,
because your only states. You've cut into a state and
found yourself in a pure state and taught yourself so
pure the state was, and you, the occupant, activated it.
(29:10):
You animated it, and it became real to you. And
if you liked it and remained in that state, but
you could easier fall into another state, a wicked state.
And when you are in a state, you partake of
the nature of that state, and you animate it and
make it all alive. But you're neither wicked nor pure.
You're just as immortal being putting, putting through the furnaces
(29:33):
of affliction. And you pass through all these furnaces for
a divine reason, to be made perfect as He is perfect.
And when in his eye you are perfect, it brings
you out of it. Divine mercy steps beyond and reduce
man in the body of Jesus. But the fall will
be redeemed because you can't better. And Blake made it
so player. If you haven't read Jerusalem, what a thrill,
(29:56):
what a treat in store for you? They're only one
hundred plates, and a fate doesn't even run a full page,
and so you can really read it in an hour easily.
Some words there be a little bit difficult to gress
because he does involve it by calling a certain attribute
loss or losses imagination, that divine being that remained faithful
(30:21):
to vision in the time of travel. I Putorium battles
the sun. It really is the soul of the animating
principle of everything in this world. And so when you
see through his eyes, you have the experience I have
met late. We are separated in time, but we are
two figures closely woken in this papistry of life. I
(30:41):
met him just about a year ago, and he showed
me exactly how to fall in order to see what
he describes so beautifully. In Jerusalem, I stood perfectly still.
He select yourself go battles, and so I threw myself backwards.
I got back down, and I came whirling through interstellar
space as though I were a medium. And when I
(31:04):
the most was arrested, and I stood still. Here I
am looking at the most wonderful being, and is seen
as I looked at him one being. As I came close,
multitudes of nations are in that being, all races, all nations.
As I look closer, the heart is like glowing brooding,
but it too is made up of numberless races and nations.
(31:26):
I look still closer, and the whole body containing all races.
I'm looking at myself here the face is my face,
and yet in that one being, for all the races,
all the nations are contained. I'm looking rightly to my
own face, and my heart is glowing like broody, but
it contains all women. All these bodies are in And
(31:49):
it was Lake who showed me how to fall backtids
in order to see the vision. And so I tumbled
backwards just like some medium hurling itself through space and
then arrested. That's what I saw. So, although we are
parted in time, he died in eighteen twenty seven and
I was born in nineteen five, So our players never
(32:09):
met on earth, but in the spirit they certainly meets.
And so his visions are my visions. When he said
eternity exists, and all things in eternity independent of creation,
which was an active person, I said exactly what he means.
For one day I stepped in in spirit into a
(32:31):
room unfair dining family of four, two boys in their
twenties early twenties, and father in love. And coming through
the door is the lady bearing through to the table.
Through the huge big glass window. I could see birds
in flight. I could see the ripple of the grass
as the wind blew it. I could see these fouring
(32:53):
father diners didn't attract me, but they were diners, but
they didn't attract me. The wags attracted me, and fill
the flour that attracted me, and the other things that
I've just mentioned. And at that moment, while I'm looking
at the four of them. Something in the depths of
myself knew that if I could arrest in me and
actively that I felt, everything would freeze. I no sooner
(33:18):
knew it than I tried it, And I felt something
geil in my head at that moment that it jailed
and pros in me. Everything there prose, and the waitress
walking walked up, and the diners dying, dying up. I
can see the face now of the young lead yet
a spoon in his hand. He was drinking soup, and
(33:38):
he came this far with his mouth expecting it, and
he couldn't move it. And the waitress could not walk.
And a bird in flight was arrested and it couldn't fall,
and the leaves falling couldn't fall. And suddenly I'm looking
at a world that is dead. Everything is dead, And
where was the nfe of it in me? Now, a
(33:59):
burden flight, if arrested, should fall to the ground, if
the law that we speak of of gravity is in operation.
But the bird didn't fall, and the leagus or unless
a lot of pressure equal to it kept it alive
or kept it afloat, but not the bird. The waitress yet,
if she doesn't if she is arrested, she doesn't have
to fall. But she was prose as though she were
(34:21):
made of play. They could be made of play. And
then I released the activity that I had arrested, and
I did so each continued in their course, and the
waitress walked, and he completed the action of breaking his soup,
and the bird, which was perfectly still continted the action
of flight, and the leaguers continued to fall, and once
for all became animated. That's what he meant. The eternity exists,
(34:45):
and all things in eternity independent of creation, which was
an active messy. And so we are inserted into this
dead body, this eternal death, and then we animated, and
eventually we will come out of it with light in ourselves,
or we are told, as the Father has light in himselves,
so he is gravely the son also to have right
(35:08):
in himself. And the purpose of it all is to
simply awaken sons who have light in themselves, and not
simply animated parts of the structure of the universe. One
day a lady asked me concerning animals, but I didn't
know the answer. He said, never, what is the future
evolution of the animal world. I am very fond of animals,
(35:30):
and I hate to see them destroyed. So what is
the future evolution of the animal? But I didn't know
the answer. I could have given her some theory, but
I could not speak. Then from experience two nights laden,
I find myself on the top of a ladder. I'm
looking down. Here is the jungle wild beasts, I mean
(35:50):
really wile, tidle, lion ant, everything that is greedy, which
will call the wild beast of the jungle, and they
are in an angry mood. Whole is moving, strong, shopping beast.
I am alone at the top of a ladder. At
the moment, I'm a little bit apprehensive and a little
concern for my own safety. And as I was concerned
(36:12):
and apprehensive, that became all the more angry. Then in
the depths of my soul again I knew, as though
something cristal, but no one Cristal. I knew that they
were only externalized the emotions of myself, that there's simply
poll witness of my only emotions. When I lost all
fail they became docile like housecats. Then I went further,
(36:36):
as I would now repeat it, I would arrest within
me the activity that makes them alive. And once more
I arrested, and in my headed jail, I went down
that entire ladder. They were made of play, but as
their play, they were solid, just as I walked into
a museum and solving these things carved beautifuy by some
great sculptor. That's what they were all dead. And then
(36:59):
I went back up the lanel releases that pivty and
once more that came into animation and their move that
living beast to the jumper. So I know experience today
the whole vast world, as Blake said, all that you behold,
though it appears without, it is within in your imagination,
of which this world of mortality is but a shadow.
(37:21):
And I know it. I've experienced it. So I tell you,
if you haven't experienced it, you're pot me. Well, that's
the purpose of being here, and you will find the
whole thing is within you. It's not out their gon
and me. If you would like me to be improved
beyond what I'd seen to be in your eyes now
and in your own minds mine's eye, make me all
(37:42):
the greater if that's what you want for me. If
you want me to come back next year, bring in
something far deeper than this. Yere see the in that light.
Don't do it with my consent, Do it without my
consent if that's your desire for it. If I desire
for you, knowing that you will be limited, is to
see you free of this limitation without your knowledge, without
your consent, I should, knowing the difference between you and states,
(38:07):
I should create the state I want to see you
it'spless in this world, and put you in that state
so right now, to see you as you would like
to see yourself. And I remain faithful to that vision
of you. Come back next year to encounter you in
that state, or you will write me, or others would
write me to tell me of a transformed being that
you seem to be. It works that way. Always bear
(38:29):
in mind the distinction between you, the immortal you, and
the state you occupy, because you know you could easily
fall into the state to an argument through a headline
in the paper. You can fall into it in some
other way and think you are it, and you are
is at all. You are the immortal being that one
(38:50):
day it will be defetched from the furnace of afriction
and being brought out. You are one with your father,
who is God, and you are heat. So Blake to
me is a spiritual giant, one of the truly awakened gods.
And when your mession he looks like some super terrestu
(39:10):
beam when you see him, a giant of a man.
And if he wasn't any giant there, but he was radiant.
A man is raidant, just completely awake among the gods.
So well your tell in the eighty second song, and
God is taking his place in the divine council in
the midst of the gods. He holds out Blake. If
(39:33):
in the midst of the gods. When I travel now,
I'm leaving here a Sunday, I take back my three books.
One I've got just to show my friend's freedom. The
other few of my constant companions. And one is Blake
and the other is the Violent. I'll be flying to
New York from the fifteenth September. I'll be carrying two books,
(39:54):
one with the Blake complete words, and one you, my Viole.
That's all I will be carrying. It's my constant companion.
First of all, the joy of reading Blade with his
use of English, that fantest the use of English. All
weading in the imagination, and so no one outside the
Bible has given to the world as much as break
(40:16):
when it comes to the secret of imagine how to
do it. And so these four visions of his the
four phone, the threefold, the twofold, and the single, while
the single is simply any normal physical side where its
thing is what it appears to be, and nothing more
that single vision. And he prayed to be saved from
(40:38):
single vision. Because everything has a meaning in God's world.
I used to sit in the parm years ago with
my old friend Aldula, and as if two people walked by,
it had meaning. It was male and female, and different
if two made it different. Birds in flight, and he
gave meaning to all the moving, animated states of God's
(40:58):
world a different language. God is speaking every moment of time,
he say to every one of us, but we can't
see it. We do not understand the language of God.
It's all spoken in symbolism. And the birds in flight
reveal something to add I will see app yet up
and he wasn't superficious. He got up at a certain
(41:19):
moment when something passed by. He could interpret the language
of God. Others couldn't. And there was reasons for this
getting up. As time proved, he simply moved from what
soon thereafter was an accident, but he moved. Everything is
meaning in this world for everything the very beginning of
(41:40):
the Book of John. In the beginning was the word,
while the Greek word lovers, that is translating word has
the meaning meaning. So you could say, in the beginning
was meaning, and meaning was with God, and meaning was God.
There is a meaning. There's a purpose, a plane behind
everything in this world, and eventually you and I will
(42:01):
understand it. I assure you the whole vast world, if
you could arrest your power now, which stands still, absolutely
still the only work outside of lakes and one little
passid in my book where I try to recalled experience
that I've ever seen, it was in the apart the
(42:21):
New Testament of the Gospel of James. And here in
the Book of James the words are put into the
mouth of Joseph the night of the Birth of Christ,
where he goes in search of a Hebrew midwife because
he wants it for his wine. And as he starts,
the heavens stood still, and the shepherds tending their clock
(42:44):
death stood still, and the little lamb is drinking stood still,
and the main eating stood still, and everything was frozen
as though dead, and then suddenly all moved on in
their cross. So it's the only recorded thing that it all,
and that's in the Book of James. But the Apocatabook
of James, and you can get it the Apote the
(43:07):
New Testament, and look up as it called the infant Gospels,
and look up the one under the Gospel of James.
This was experience given as an experience of Joseph, where
the night that he was born as Christ, then the
heavens stood still. Well, that's the power that he tastes
(43:28):
it of the age to come. For that's the power
you're wield in the age, guitar. You taste it now,
just glimpses of it, because you're rising into a world
completely subthing to your imaginative power. So if you haven't
read Lake, may I beg you to get a coffee
(43:49):
and read him. You may not understand in the very
first moment, but reread them and keep on rereading them.
First of all for your Well, if you like English,
just for the joy of reading good English, leave Blake.
Few can take words and do with words what Blake
(44:10):
did and left for the world. So two hundred years
ago he made its entrance, and then that's to us.
Although he himself was completely unknown, and you mentioned anyone
in the day when he walked in earth, and they're
completely unknown today. But Blake has become known, and he
(44:33):
goes bigger and bigger every year in the eyes of
those who understand good literature. And those who are considered
great in his day are completely today unknown, because the
King of England in both days is simply mayor George.
And we only go in today because he lost, of
which we are very thankful that he lost it. But
(44:55):
he lost his greatest colony, which was a mife. We
are very great that he did. But he was as
mad as a happer, and he's only known for that,
for his madness. While Blake was not mad, but because
of his visions. They called him then and said the
man is mad, because he spoke of these mortal eyes
could not see. Yet the same who called him man
(45:18):
will read the Bible. What can you conceive of the
description of God on his throne has described this in
the sixth chapter of Isaiah. And he held the look
the most hides sitting on his throne, and he paints
the picture. Can you conceive of any camera man photograph
in it? He got to take the words of Isaiah,
(45:40):
because you couldn't postly take some ananimous there and have
him decept God and his throne. And you couldn't take
any camera man who could photograph the vision of Isaiah
was was he mad? We had it in the book
and he read it all the time. All the visions
recorded that the Bible could not be photographed. And so
because he could not photograph his own say, he could
(46:01):
do them or he had the talent to dob them
what they called him man when he dow the flea
and drew the free like a man, a monstrous man.
But the next that wasn't a neck. The head was
simply stuck on. Shows yes, but he was trying to
put over a marvelous lesson to him. A flea is
(46:24):
a blood sucking insect. Well, any man who takes the
lifelode of another, who works for less than a man
really should be paid. He's taking his dog. He doesn't
get on the man and actually suck nude. But there
was a day, there's still a day when a man
doesn't pay what he's worth, and yet the man is
(46:45):
using him. That man goes home to a wife and
children need food, need to be educated. And he's not
being properly paid. Isn't he the employer a blood sucking insect?
Or that's the flea? What Blake? That is? Everything is man.
So the little free is only a protection of a
that sucking man. So everyone in the world could look
(47:09):
at that pictures a monster's picture, and he got everything
into it. And he said he saw the ghost of
the free, and the ghost of the fleeing was man.
For there's nothing but man. I saw. The animal world
is going to be Man's emotions be physical. When man
arrests in him the life that makes them alive, they
all stand and they're dead. The whole vast world one
(47:31):
day will be esteemed by you I steal. And then
you know the words of Blake internity exists, and all
things in eternity independent of creation, which wasn't active mist.
And so we are being molded and shaped on this
populous world of stakes by the uncreated God. Here the
(47:53):
uncreated shapes himself upon the mole that is permanent. Now
let us go in of the silence, have already questions
(48:15):
this I didn't quite hear you, my dear. Yes, my dear,
(48:35):
I'm convinced of it. But consciousness is the one and
only reality. Really, But the world is fixed, it really
is fixed in a dead state. But the living state
is your own consciousness. And you can feel it, not
just to be aware of it, if you can actually
feel it, and stop it and stop, if any will come,
you stop and start everything in this world. What the
(49:01):
next scene is going to be, I do not know.
I really do not know, but I glimpses of it,
and I've tasted that the power of the age to
be justice. Well, the man in this world cannot exercise
that power. But I saw people dining, and they seem
(49:27):
to be completely independent of my perception of them. They
seem to have freedom of choice in art of drinking
the supernot drinking the waiter, that is, the waitress coming
from the door. But I first came into the room, well,
reason told me everything I saw was actually independence of
my perception of them. But then I knew differently. One
(49:49):
second later, I knew that they had no life in themselves,
that the life was in me. So I arrested that
life in me, and they were dead, and this action
would have been there forever if I had not released
that right in me. I cannot on a scene that
was animated and seemingly independent of my perception of it.
(50:11):
But it wasn't because I discovered one second later that
I could arrest an activity in me and it would freeze.
And it did. And the word as I said, the
bird in flight, should a bird in flight wetip arrested,
the motion arrested, should it not fall if the log
gravity is true? But it didn't. I could have held
(50:33):
it very definitely because the motion was breeding in me.
And one night the voice said to me. At the
time I could not understand. But the voice is never
lying to me. So in the depth of my soul,
a voices speaking, you do not move in a week
any more than you move on your aid in seat.
(50:55):
It is all a movement in mind, or the google
in mind. I knew that I came to pay that
night from the living room. I knew the next order
to get out of that brain. I go to the
living room. I will leave the house that day and
go elsewhere. And I've done that for all these years.
(51:16):
And the boss is telling me, you do not move
in waking anymore than you move your bed in sleep.
It's all a google to mine. You only think you move,
will you wake as you think you move in sleep?
For then to encountain the depths of my soul I'm
meditating their book, and to discover that he is meditating me,
(51:38):
and he is the reality that is causing the seeming motion,
but he isn't moving. So was the voice speaking to
that depth for my soul that is there in meditation?
As Young said, when he saw himself, he was afraid,
and he will a frightened because he said to himself,
so he is the one who is meditating me. He
(52:00):
has a dream, and I am it. And then he said, hum,
And I knew when he awakened, I would no longer
be so, but still meditating you caused eighty nine years
of seeming motion all over this world. But the being
he encountered when he was then sixty nine years old
was there before he came from his mother's womb meditating him.
(52:24):
He was dreaming of an experience in three dimensions, which
he needed for increased awareness to further his own self realization.
But he the meditating being was not moving, and that
he was the cause of Young's experience of sixty nine
years and be young for another twenty years before he
died of eighty nine. But then the voice is telling
(52:44):
me the truth. For the voice wasn't speaking the lizard
of thing here this is the garment that I am winning.
So the voice was addressing itself to the depth of
my soul. You do not move in Awaken any more
than your move when you're dating his need. It's all
a movement in mind. Only think you move, would you
make as you think you in green? Well? I recorded
(53:09):
the words, but I couldn't understand the words. Yeah, the
voice is never like me. So these revelations can come
beyond one's capacity to fully understand. But you will grow
into the understand because you will give you another experience
and another experience, and finally it unravels itself and you
(53:29):
will see how true the voice was when you record
it as scripture. All these things will recall it in
the thirty nine books of the Old Testament, but they
would not understood it any more than there understood today.
It took the New test but to manifest the great
secret hidden in the Old and to the state of
(53:51):
people who will not believe that it happened, but it's
all stated, but the very ones who recorded it couldn't
understand it. I was confessed that the prophets sought and
inquired and asked what question of time was indicated by
the spirit of Christ within them when predicting the signs
(54:11):
of price and the consequent glory. And they were told
then it was not for their time but for hours.
But they were asking me an inquiry that no voice
answered their inquiry. They couldn't understand, but they recorded faithfully
what the boy said, dictating for our age, for our time.
(54:36):
Any other questions piece, yes, did I move in the
depth of my soul? That being is still unnosed. But
the illusion of emotion I am experiencing in three dimensions
with the garment that I'm wearing a male garment. I
(54:57):
have the illusion now when you wake me tomorrow morning,
when you're dead, If you have a dream tonight, then
you will dream. You may not remember it. But if
tomorrow morning you wake remembering the dream and the dream
is very active, you'll have to confess to yourself if
this thing is the real. Still really didn't move, did you?
(55:17):
But while the dream lasted it seems so real, and
you're certainly moving much in the dream. But if reason
enters on reflection, also that's the city. I could not
have moved because I went to bed here last time,
and here I am on the same day, the same room.
So did I move? And you're going to tell yourself, no,
(55:37):
you didn't. Really you had a movement in mind or
the mind, if you'll say, but what the mind did it?
But you were closed to yourself. You could be hurted
a dream and have the sensation of pain and witness
an accent. It could even be fatal in the dream.
But when you make it over, just the dream that
(55:58):
for all the movements that I experienced, he must have
been in mind. While they'll be awake from this dream,
this will be the same thing. Or he will awake
one day and this, on reflection will be as much
a dream as tomorrow morning's reflection on the night's dream.
So the point that is all that we see or
(56:18):
seen but a dream within a dream, beggar allan Poe,
and he came to the conclusion, Yes, it's all that
be seen or seen, but a dream within a dream.
And the day will tell that dreamer who madpated you
into seeming reality will awake from the experience which he
(56:40):
imposed upon himself, and you will be heate. But they awake,
and reflecting on the experience that lasted seemingly thousands of
years by our little time, will be looking just the
experience of the dream that he imposed for a depth
of purpose, to simply further his own self realization. And
(57:00):
therefore you will know that you haven't moved. You will
awaken from the shouting prose stillness and beamed of motion,
and all the experiences that you and I in funt
hid the world have flesh and blood, and you will awaken,
and then it will be to you like the dream
(57:21):
of tonight will be to you tomorrow morning. But the
voice is there, wode to But when I hear it,
if it speaks with an authorning from the great depths
of the soul, and you hear it, and you simply listen,
and you'll recall what will tell whether you want to
stand it or not. Then comes experiences where you can't
(57:42):
deny the experience. The experience of seeing people's hands still
when I arrested an activity in me is an experience
that I cannot deny. And the experience is not less
vivid than the experience of today. I had a very
pleasant day of mine to lunch today, and a friend
of mine took me to dinner tonight. And there are pleasant,
(58:05):
wonderful meetings. Well, they're not any more real now their
memory images. The dinner is a memory image, and the
lunch isn't a memory image. But they're not real when
I experienced it. But they're not more vividly real in
my mind's eye now. Now, this experience of en conquering
dinas standing still. When I arrested an activity in me
(58:27):
that che is a memory image, but when I did it,
it was a still as today's suns was spill. So
in the end, that voice is going to prove itself true.
For I encountered myself seated being the Lotus postule. I
looked at him. There's nevil. They are radiantly beautiful man
(58:48):
with a character that this little level does not possess.
There was majesty, there was sprinkive character, There was nobility
in that faith, everything that could be desired by anyone.
Yet it was there, and he was completely undisturbed by
my staring at him. I encountered the being that is
meditating me and it is still, and it will seated
(59:11):
in a lotus postule, completely unmoved by my interests and
my surprise, And when he really moves from that seat,
I will no longer be But I am well, we're
(59:33):
here on Sunday morning, and that will be our last
for a year. But that you repeat is not the
last of the message or freedom barriers in our mixed
and I think you all know it. Okay, let me
ask you the peace. Take one of his cards and
read it. It gives you all the information that you
will need to concerning the cats all gay. Thank you,
