Time Structure Limits Perception
Now.
Any time structure is an aid, organizing experience along certain
lines. To a large extent it limits
perception, and is a protective device.
You are learning to handle perception and experience, and time gives it
to you in slow and small doses.
The doses become larger. Finally you can sample experience without
these limitations. Nontime represents the
freedom to do so. You organize
experience along your own lines because you have learned now to do so. You do not misuse experience when you have
reached that point.
You understand the basic reality of
subjective life. You will then still organize
experience, but you will not need artificial aids such as time to lean
upon. You will not need to see thoughts
materialized in physical matter, for you will have long since learned that the
thoughts and not the matter are the basic reality. You will be able therefore to dispense with
many seemingly permanent mass images, but when you form them you will realize
why and how.
It is important that you understand that
time puts limitations and barriers in the way of perception. This does not meant that each individual at
such a stage is isolated, nor that he dwells in some universe of his own, for
interactions always exist.
In nontime you perceive at your own rate. You organize experience in your own way. These experiences however will always involve
you with others. Indeed you can go far
further in such relationships. The
relationships between multi-dimensional personalities is far more complicated
than those you know.
Relationships Between Multidimensional Personalities
Entities, if they prefer, and under various
conditions, when they become acquainted with others, may introduce to each
other if they prefer, various portions of their personalities. These various portions will be able to help
each other and to aid in development.
Take for example entity A and entity B.
Self 4 personality of entity A may get along quite nicely with B’s self
6. A’s self 2 and B’s self 2 may not get
along well at all, so the entities will shift to those personalities which have
the greatest rapport, and use them to establish a relationship.
In nontime these portions of the entity
exist quite freely, without any time barriers to separate them. Many such relationships have been
established, as indeed I speak with you because we get on so well. I am also familiar with your particular
system, and found it emotionally satisfying.
Multidimensional personalities can
therefore establish contact at various levels.
Their relationships involve a trust that yours do not have. They have many areas of agreement open.
Now your physical relationships may or may
not have anything to do with personal affiliations after any given existence
within your system. There are mothers
and fathers that you have forgotten, and children that you do not know. Psychically and subjectively the relationships
did not take. You are not burdened with
them, nor they with you.
This simply means that you did not spark
creative impetus of any kind within each other.
Now, you did not bring forth response
from one another. This perhaps is more
important. You did not challenge
one another. You may have gotten along
quite well with each other.
No strong love was generated. If ever a hatred was generated, then
the relationship continued in one way or another through several
existences. It would be worked out, you
see.
In almost the same manner some
personalities are more remote from the entity than others. They may even move out further into another
psychic organization that offers more promising development, or to them a more
pleasing psychological climate.
In such instances the entity does not try
to hold the personality back. The
personality itself may simply pull away, exist by itself. It may become a part of another entity, as it
searches for support. It may on the
other hand attract, because of its strength, personalities who are searching
for support. They may join it in a new
formation. This may ultimately turn into
another entity.
There are no barriers as far as development
and experience are concerned, nor to creativity. A personality then, starting out with one
main purpose, may find itself involved in experience that opens new areas, and
it may pursue them. In nontime there is
full recognition and sometimes use of time systems, but the personality
realizes that it dwells in nontime, and it forms a time schedule or system to
get where it wants to go in the same way that you would make a road or path.
Use Of Time Systems By Multidimensional Personalities
Sometimes the road or path may be used by
others, and sometimes not. Now, many personalities
may work together to form a time system, as many men may labor to form a
national highway. One personality may
also form for his own purposes a time system of his own, as a man might make a
path to his own garden.
Sooner or later the man will cease walking
merely from his house to his garden, and use other roads or forge new
paths. Sooner or later the personality
will use or form other time systems in which to achieve developments, but
nothing forces him to do so.
Now.
Time then is an aid in one way, and it is used by multidimensional
personalities for their own benefit. Use
again the analogy of a road. Other
dimensional personalities realize that they are perfectly free to leave the
road, and that much more exists on all sides.
In your theory of time however you believe
yourselves bound to the road, do not realize that you have made it, and are
unable to perceive other realities. You
have chosen to do this however.
Since you are learning and can only handle so many perceptions, you have
forgotten that you have created the road.
Multidimensional personalities do not need to forget. They are also aware of different such devices
formed by others.
They don particular types of clothing to
travel these roads, or they use certain vehicles. They do not believe that they are bound
to those vehicles. There are certain
time structures that are used by many.
Well traveled. There are certain
systems of reality that are well traveled.
In these to some extent mass perceptions predominate.
There are others, far less numerous, where
highly venturesome personalities chose to set up new trails and strike out in
new ways. There are ruined time
structures as well as ruined physical structures.
There are realities that are used no
longer. The purpose for which they were
constructed, in your terms, no longer exists.
In your terms again there are incipient time structures and realities,
probable systems that may or may not become a part of any mass venture.
Time therefore is formed out of and from
nontime. Non-time is psychological
experience, psychological reality, and time is always at its service. Entities then form the time in which they
seem to dwell. Experience itself is
always plastic, and again, form is not dependent upon mass. Mass belongs to your camouflage system. Form does not.
Form adopts mass within the physical
system, but form is not dependent upon it.
Form can exist and does exist without mass and without physical
matter. Form, like time, is an aid, an
organization of experience. Form is used
as time structures may be used, but multidimensional personalities know that
they construct form as they may construct various time systems as an aid toward
organizing perception.
There are in other words many other kinds
of time systems that are constructed, beside the one you know, dealing with
continuity of moments. The probable
systems could be called time systems, only their experience is highly organized
in a different fashion, and continual moments do not exist in your terms.
Now, there are some systems that do deal
with a serial time unit, but in these the personalities are well aware that the
serial time is of their own construction.
Certain types of personalities will construct or be attracted to certain
time systems. They will find certain
patterns of development, particular perceptive mechanisms, that go with it more
to their liking.
You could say that various time systems are
like games, and there are many of them; and in each one the rules and the goals
are different. In your system one
of the rules is that you forget you are playing a game in order to concentrate
better on the affairs at hand.
The game however is for a purpose.
You cannot apply the rules of your game to
the universe however, nor project them in such a manner and expect any valid
results. Still, playing the game will
sharpen your perceptions and give you certain qualities that will allow you to
understand reality once you cease playing the game.
How you do in the game will affect your
score elsewhere, in other words. Time
then is superimposed upon nontime, as mass within your system is superimposed
upon form.
Now to some extent, to some large extent,
time as you know it with its continual moments is a highly specialized
illusion, even within your physical system.
Your own race is the only one who plays
with any facility. Other myriad life
forms have nothing to do with it at all.
You merely transpose your values upon them. They do not experience time as you do.
This does not mean that they are not advanced
enough to understand the reality of your time. They do not share the illusion. Almost all animals, plants, birds, insects, rocks
and trees perceive according to intensities. The intensity of an experience is their present;
but in many ways that I will not explain to you at this point, their present is
of wider duration than yours. This does not
necessarily mean that they perceive more of the past and future within their
present than you do, for they do not in those terms. But in terms of quality and value fulfillment there
is greater duration and the “moment” is more intensely perceived.
Be reminded here that they are not concerned
with moments in your terms. Each experience
is highly intense, however. The organism
responds to an acute degree. This applies
to both birds and rocks, though there is a large scale of difference between the
extremes.
