Themes from 10 black box sessions in 2000

Even at the time I could see that the series of 10 black box sessions that Skip Atwater and I did in September, October, and November, 2000, had been orchestrated from the other side. I knew that in some ways I was a different person by Thanksgiving that I had been on Labor Day. And I knew that the end of the sessions marked a stopping place, but also a new beginning. The series left me with my feet firmly planted. I now had a place to stand.

It was because of these sessions that Rita Warren and I were moved to begin a weekly series of sessions in her home, rather than in the black box, beginning in August, 2001. That series, in turn, presented us with a massive amount of material from the guys upstairs. As we absorbed the material, it changed our way of looking at things, and thus changed our lives. Unfortunately when I attempted to mold that material into a book, I tied myself into knots, and so it was shared only with the Monroe Institute’s Voyagers Mailing List, and with some friends. This blog makes it possible for me to put that material out in public without needing to shape it into a book, and that is what I will be doing in the series I call TGU Sessions.

But first I think it worthwhile to summarize a few of the major themes that emerged in that very important series of ten sessions in the black box, in what now looks to be our last full year of innocence. Continue reading Themes from 10 black box sessions in 2000

[In focus 23, by request]

F: [pause] Strong clamping band around my head. [pause] Standing on a stairway or an entryway, just watching the people go by, a lot of ‘em, constantly. Like in a big convention center. [pause] They’ve all got their own thoughts, so they’re all in their own world. [pause] There’s come analogy here to the present that we were talking about. They all experience their own world, thinking it’s objectively there, and it sort of is. It sort of is because it’s a group projection, and for any one of the group it looks objectively there. [pause] “As with us,” they say. And as I said that, my feet – my legs are now burning hot. My lower legs. And now icy. Continue reading Black Box Session 11-17-00 (2)

Session ten of ten

Background

For this session only, Skip video-taped the monitor so I could see later what was going on real-time rather than only in the summary graph. I went into the session without any change in intent, still ready to receive whatever they had to give; still receptive to, and confident in, and trusting of, Guidance. I told him I hoped they would bring the series to some sort of closure, but wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t, just because I half-expected it. (-:

It seems a long way from where we were when we began this series, 11 weeks ago. Continue reading Black Box Session 11-17-00 (1)

Session nine of ten

[continuing]

[after long pause]

For heaven’s sakes! This is the living body maps, but more powerful. [pause] I’m either jumping to conclusions or I’m being prompted; I think this will help psychological problems too. I think one can fix their emotional and mental and physical and their energy level bodies – I think we can do that ourselves, starting from moving to the base chakra and going to 12. I have all kinds of back pains in specific places, and I’m becoming – underneath what I’m talking about – I’m aware of them and I can – smooth them. I don’t know how else to say it. It enters my awareness, and I rather want it corrected, and it corrects. [pause] The thing I didn’t report is that immediately I had said about the potential of it, it felt like my stomach – since I’m lying on my back – it’s like it came in about half an inch or an inch; it like collapsed down. It felt like something that had been held, was released. [pause] I’m losing that focus in there, I’ve got to get it back again. [pause] Continue reading Black Box Session 11-10-00 (2)

Hemingway on Paul Potts and Harry Morgan

[For those who came in late: We think of the dead as gone, but it is not so.  Their souls live on, as alive as when they were here, but now outside of time and space. When we communicate with them, they know what we know, and can react to that knowledge as they might have reacted to anything that happened while they were on this side. And so we can communicate with them about the things in our life, and get the benefit of viewpoints formed in very different environments of space and time.

[How reliable the messages we receive seems  to depend a lot on our ability to keep our own ego out of it, and no doubt upon other things that vary our ability to receive from one moment to the next. Those looking for certainty won’t find it here. But the question is less “Can this be proven” than “Does this information resonate?”

[In this context, I present a little conversation with Hemingway about the English opera singer who just burst upon the scene via a talent contest.] Continue reading Hemingway on Paul Potts and Harry Morgan
