Pictures? Someone said that yogis erred in walking on hot coals, when the last enemy is death. I always figure walking on water is a pretty good test of any theory. Come on, we have work to do.

I think science explains it by saying that we play many roles in life which are stored in the subconscious, so we are really going into the right hemisphere of the brain or whole brain. That we think we are a king or queen, in past lives, is because, for economy, we store similar images together. Since we are number one in our lives we are grouped with number one people, among other things. I remembered a scene at work where one particularly wise and kind person had some admirers/friends around her. Then, in my minds eye, a vague overlay came on top of it of a guru with his disciples, as that is about what the scene amounted to, people who wanted to be like her. I decided that I did too, as bullies didn't bully her and they all had 'respect'. You may not believe it's just going into your right hemisphere or your deeper subconscious, but it is more acceptable to the 'logical' left brain. The left brain seems there to check the right. Like in fractals, things are somewhat similar on different levels, just like the left politically does check the right, and vice versa, for a balance. We actually used to get a balance in this country. Now we are more bi-polar, going from one extreme to the other. On the other hand, it's great to jump, if we know what's going on. And the synthesis of the two brains moves us forward. Also the senses do connect us with the universe so that we have a sense of the basics and all the reality of reality, if we choose to try and find it. That has been my life's mission, although I doubt that I am done and we never have all the details. Even if we have a good overview, time makes learning more of a spiral than a circle. You might say that the planets are spiraling through the universe, as the whole universe is moving too. More seems to be created all the time also, but it's similar to and built on the previous 'level', so in a way there is nothing new under the sun, only fractals of the previous layer. Like a circle, it never ends, but in a way it ends every time it comes around, like going around the earth to end up where you started from, but with a whole new perspective, hopefully. That seems to put it all in the mind and not. No problem.

I had a couple of questions. You may not know the answers, but I thought I would try. If we like being our other selves, can we stay there? Or how much of that other self can we bring into this reality permanently? My story is that I finally got quantum jumping from months of your newsletter and finally coming here today, and already I am feeling an affect, and haven't even taken your course. But then I already had quite a background in about every field from science, linguistics, psychology, philosophy, education, spirituality and anything you can think of. I tend to take science as far as I can on anything so, at least to some extent, I know the power of the subconscious. Most of our mind is operating at a much faster rate than our conscious mind alone. Emotional Intelligence in Sports talks about being "in the zone" where atheletes see the field as if in slow motion. For example, Michael Jordan says that when he gets on the court, it is as if the other players all slowed down. This phenomenon is all well documented. I even saw my whole life go before my eyes in one second. I know it was one second, because I thought I was going to crash into the car in front of me, so the time was very short and I still had time left over. Fortunately I did stop in time, but I think I was looking at the whole database in my mind to find an answer as to how to avoid the accident. Science is saying that the subconscious is at a vibrational frequency a million times faster than the conscious mind and it also has a million times the capacity. I figure that it has been making a map of reality very fast, while we have been slugging along at a snails pace all our lives. It makes sense that we could, at the very least, take on a more reasonable personality and a much smarter one, that is already in us. I have been studying, for three years now, another experience had and gathering information to explain it, so anyone would do well to keep looking in all these areas and all the information coming out now. I might add that I also studied longevity for a while, and it looked very much like people lived as long as they had an interest in life. W. E. B. Dubois, for instance had a hundred years of work on his desk when he died at one hundred. I hope you will always find the whole field of personal development to be exciting, because we don't know what we can do yet. Love, Harold

Ya gotta check out Duane Ellgin's new one, The Living Universe: Where Are We? Who Are We? Where Are We Going? It seems to put it all together. If I'm not imagining things, from his last newsletter I think Andrew Cohen has been influenced by it too.

Boy, when spirituality with science started working for me it blew me away, permanently. I hope you get all these ideas going. We may just have evolved to this point from millions of years, but when it happens, it happens rather quickly. We are into a whole new mindset for the world. I wouldn't miss it for anything. Of course I pick and choose what I like, but I have never seen so much in one place. I'm pumped. It looks like we can practically download an education into the brain real fast, shortcutting a lifetime of learning. The next step is to attach electrodes to the brain, I'm sure. I have a scientific bent myself, but don't forget to be cynical about being cynical. The scientific method is to question and test what we know. Reality is so huge that what we know doesn't really amount to anything, imo.

Some of the notes are really great. I read a series, one on the 50 great psychology classics and another on the great spiritual classics. I never would have learned so much in a couple of books. I never had, for all my study in these areas, so this is really great, greater even, because it is from all areas and Brian is pretty savy. I see Philosophers Notes as going around the world somehow, and changing everything. Am I hallucinating?

I had another thought. Science and my intuition are also telling me that our deficits are also a free gift?. I would like to give them away.

I'm worried that people may think that intuition is a sometime thing. It is pretty well proven that if we do not use our intuition, we are not thinking. That has been documented from Aristotle to Einstein, from science to spirituality. It's a big mistake not to consult it, rather than waiting for it to happen. There are different levels of intuition, from the explainable to the infinitely subtle, but it is all logical and the universe is also. It is not magic, but natural that we are connected to the universe and part of it. It sees patterns in apparent chaos. If we listen it will guide us in everything and that's how I try use it, not in a blind faith except in small matters, but I try to follow it to the end, when possible or I'm guided to do that, checking it out and testing it until I find out why I had that thought, feeling or gut reaction. We call it intuition when it is a deeper insight that is counter to our usual thinking. Our usual thinking is mostly our programming or habitual thought processes, which are good for instinctual acting, but done with little thought. Whenever we want to think about something we have to take into account our feelings, gut reactions and the idea that we are telling ourselves. In that sense I always rely on it, especially whenever I sense something requires some thought. It's not about incidents, to me, but a way of life or else we will always be going to guru's to tell us what think next. I see intuition as a way to freedom. Independently being able to guide our own lives and not continually looking to leaders to provide ideas and answers. Although, since I'm here, it shows that I also don't let many opportunities go by to see what others are saying and doing. It's all good. In short I try to guide my whole life by intuition, but test it also. Testing is so important. Bush and Obama both talk about using their gut reactions. Obviously one of them isn't checking them out very well.

Ok, now stop that. It's too good for words. It's so good it's painful. I don't see how anyone can know how good, because this sort of thing goes subconscious and will totally reorganize your mind to a new self, if you let it. Intuition can access a new self. I mean, that is powerful. I just dropped negative words for a while and had my highest consciousness and lowest depression. The thing is, I stood up in three minutes and my lowest depression ever, disappeared. It appeared to be done subconsciously. After all, science rates it as a million times the speed and capacity of the conscious mind. It really does our thinking with vision logic, which is images and symbols, the language of the brain. We only get the screen readout, if we know how to use our intuition. The mind seems to be the opposite of a computer in that the computer has trouble with graphics, while text is easy, fast and with small files. The mind, however seems to choke with words, while images are slick. So fast that you basically have to stop one to see it. That one on psych-cybernetics blew me away. I had tried to read it before and gave up. Here it turns out to be better than, than what? Everything? That felt like about the last piece I needed for a pretty clear picture. I mean, going to the moon is nice, but it looks like we have hardly started yet compared to all that seems to be coming up and coming up fast too. The whole mind can not only put the whole book in context, but all the books and all life, while we don't even notice it, and if we don't develop out intuition to access it, then we often don't get a lot of the benefit. I would recommend people get a handle on Emotional Intelligence, because that is pretty much an intro into intuition, although EI is not necessarily presented that way. You just have to get the information that is clear and down to earth, like Covey, although he doesn't really go into it that well. I would even recommend Emotional Intelligence in sports. Fun too. When you get into 'the zone' in sports, its as if all the other players slow down. It's similar to the phenomena of when your whole life passes in front of you in a second or two. 'nuf said.
