Dreams, Evolution, Fulfillment: Session 916
When Joseph read
the last session, he wondered whether or not the invisible particles I referred
to were the same as the units of consciousness I have spoken of before.
He was supposed
to ask the question, and so was each reader.
For one thing, while I realize the importance of specific terms, I do
not want you as a reader to become so dependent upon terms that coming across
one you have read before, you instantly categorize it. For one thing, each time I reintroduce such
information I do so from another direction, so to speak, so that you as a
reader are meant to approach it from a different angle also. In that way, you become familiar with certain
knowledge from a variety of viewpoints.
As you read those
passages the question itself – “Are these after all the units of consciousness
referred to earlier?” – should have triggered your intellect and your intuition
to work together, even if only slightly, in another way. In other words, of course, I hope to inspire
both your imagination and your intelligence in this chapter and in this section
of the book, devoted to such subject matter.
Remember, again,
the manifest [universe] emerges from a subjective reality, one that is implied
in the very nature of your world itself.
I would like you, then to think of those units of consciousness from an
entirely different scale of events.
Imagine, now, as
far as you are able, the existence of All That Is, a consciousness so
magnificently complex that what we may call its own psychological compartments
are, literally, now, infinite. All
appearances of time, and all experience of it, must be psychological. The “speed” of electrons, for example, would
reflect their psychological motion.
All That Is, as
the source of all realities and experience, is so psychologically complex, so
multidimensionally creative, that it constantly surprises itself. It is, itself, the invisible universe
that is everywhere implied within your world, but that becomes manifest
to your perception only through historic time.
All That Is disperses itself, therefore, so that it is on the one
hand “a massive” subjective entity, a psychological structure – and on the
other hand, it also disperses itself into the phenomenal world. It is, in all meanings of the word, divine,
yet it disperses even that divinity so that in your terms, each unit of
consciousness contains within itself those properties of divinity. All That Is has no one image, but is within all
images (whether or not they are manifest). Your thoughts are the invisible partners of your
words, and the vast unstated subjectivity of All That Is is in the same way
behind all stated or manifest phenomena.
In those terms, it
is basically impossible for any given species to become extinct. It can disappear for a time, become unmanifest
for while in historic events. The genetic
patterns for any given species reside, of course, primarily in that species’ genetic
bank – but that genetic bank does not exist in isolation, but [is] invisibly connected
with the genetic makeup of each other species.
There are countless
relationships between species that go unrecognized. The generations of all species interact. The genetic cues are not triggered on the proposition,
obviously, that a species exists alone on the planet, but also in response to genetic
sequences that operate in all of the species combined. The genetic system, again, is not closed nearly
as much as supposed. That is, again, because
the basic units of consciousness that build up matter – that form matter
– are themselves endowed with a subjective acuteness. This also accounts for my earlier statement, that
in usually understood terms the environment and its creatures “evolve” together.
Your position on the scale of awareness inclines
you to categorize consciousnesses so that only your own familiar brand seems to
fit the definition – so again here I remind you that consciousness is everywhere
in the deepest terms, because All That Is disperses itself throughout physical reality.
All portions of that reality have their own
rights to existence, and purposes within it. So, of course, do all peoples, and the races.
Your imaginations
help you bring elements of that inner implied universe into actuality. Your imaginations obviously are not limited by
time. You can imagine past and future events.
Your imaginations have always helped you
form your civilization, your arts and your sciences, and when they are united with
your reasoning processes they can bring you knowledge about the universe and your
places in it that you can receive in no other fashion.
