Out-Of-Body Experience Of Sound And Color

Out-Of-Body Experience Of Sound And Color

…  Now I will tell you, you have never seen the colors of a rainbow unless you have seen them from an out-of-body state.  If you want to see the colors of a flower, or my dear friends, of an apple, you must get out of your body to do so.  …  Your own abilities are here to be used also, and in your own unique fashion.

You have never seen what design is until you see a spider’s web when you are out of the body.  You have never seen what design is until you see a spider’s web from the spider’s viewpoint.  Now you can learn to do this.  You can use your psychic abilities, to throw your consciousness into the spider.  Your body is a very handy mechanism and I do not suggest that you step out of it too long.  However, as the earth’s atmosphere hides the conditions in the universe from your scientists, so also do the conditions of the body blind you to true color and design.  Now you can develop in this way.

You can also develop along the same line in the dream state if you give yourself the suggestion that when you are dreaming you will see color truly and remember the colors that you have seen.  You will remember them, and you can try to reproduce them.  Now these colors are like nothing in this world.

So do not feel that these abilities are his only or that you do not have a part, for you have your own abilities and you can use them for your own purposes.  You can be partners in these endeavors, as you are partners in other endeavors.  You need not lag behind. 

Now you have some latent inclinations of a musical nature as I mentioned earlier having to do with past-life experiences.  Now simply in a spirit of fun, you see, you can use your abilities, and I will give you hints if you request them.  You can use your abilities to hear the kind of music with which you were one time acquainted.  This music is part of your experience though you have forgotten.  Now: when you hear this music, in your mind try to translate it into color and design.  And when you think of color, then, sense its motion.

Motion does have a sound though you may not hear it.  Motion does have music though you may not hear it.  The very motion of atoms and molecules has music.  When you think of color then, try to hear it, you try to sense the motion, then you can use such experiences in your art work.  You can also suggest dreams in which you will hear the sort of music, with which you were acquainted.

Now the sound of the music will suggest colors to you and the colors themselves may appear in your mind as designs.  Now all of this involves use of the inner senses, it involves an examination of the inner world.  You must look inward with as much wonder as you look outward, and then the two worlds merge.

Now since this new venture is a partnership then also remember that in these psychic endeavors there must be a partnership and there will be no difficulty.  Also the energy involved in your particular field (Tam’s) and her particular activities will benefit you both.  You will each add to the experience of the other.

…  Now: it is quite possible for you at this point now to visit this room.  Give yourself the suggestion.

([Tam:] “Oh, great.”)

Place your emphasis upon being in this room, and the trip will take care of itself.  You will be able I believe to do it now. (To Tam.)  and you (to Eve) may be able to do it now.  If you choose the proper circumstances and get the idea when the conditions are good, then you can do it now.

I simply want you to know that all kinds of energy and vitality are possible, that there are all kinds of possibilities for your own development, that there is energy available to you and you can tap it; and knowledge available that you can use.  Such knowledge can be highly practical and in many instances, the dreamer is the most practical individual.  You do not have to fear that this sort of experience will take you away from reality.  It will show you a greater reality than you imagine.

It will enlarge your concepts, change your ideas of what is real and what is not real and what can be and what cannot be; and what you are and what you can be.  You can both discover the greater identity that is your own, and step out of your own shadow image.  For you identify with a very small portion of your true identity.  And when you use the word “I” you do not realize the “I” of which you speak.

There are other portions of your personality that have knowledge that you can use.  There are advantages and they are these: as you become acquainted with these other portions of your own identity, your own capacities for understanding and learning expand.  In one lifetime’s work you can learn what it might otherwise take three reincarnations to learn.  You are all involved basically with one thing.  You are learning to use energy creatively.  You are trying to discover how much energy you can direct, what you can create.  You can discover these answers for yourselves.  You cannot discover them through reading, you must look within yourselves and open your own doors.  This is a joyful endeavor.

You should begin it as a child wakes up in the morning.  It should not be sober.  You make your own reality as I have said, even more times than I wish to remember.  This also applies to your inner senses.  The more you use your inner senses, the more date you have at your command.

Now I speak through Ruburt.  Looking at him you cannot see me and yet you know that I am here.

The energy that sweeps down through this frame is but a small shadow of the energy that is at my command and at your command.  This energy can be translated into knowledge, and when it is translated into knowledge it must also be translated into behavior, then it becomes a psychic adventure.  Then you begin to use your consciousness as you should use it. 

You are a you who has a consciousness and you can use this consciousness as you will.  You can send it out, use it like a flashlight.  You can light a universe with it.  You are not your consciousness.  You are a self who is conscious and has a consciousness.  Now I want all of you, including my friend here (Rob) to contemplate the part of you who has this consciousness to use.  There will seem that there is no place to go beyond that point.  And there will appear an apparent dilemma.  And yet the dilemma will lead to a further discovery.  And by the time you know enough to throw the question back at me, that I have just asked you, then I will have more to tell you concerning the initial creative dilemma of which I have spoken.

And I want you both to know if you do not already know that the creativity and the joy and the wonder that is inherent in each consciousness is present not only in your minds and in your consciousness as you think of it, but also in the smallest cell within your fingertips.

And I want you all to know that this is no recording and I have not prepared my lesson ahead of time.  I have indeed come for a personal encounter, and to greet our guests and you must admit that for a gentleman as old as I there is some vitality left in me yet.

You have no idea of how Ruburt could use this vitality if only he knew how to do so.  Our friend has seen how this vitality can be translated into a hearty roar, or to fuel other furnaces and to make other connections, how it can be used as a fuel.  There are always translations of energy.
