• Early days

  • Alternation

    [Rita:] One thing interruptions do is sever the day-to-day connection of thought. There is value and disadvantage, both, to continuity and to discontinuity, as to everything else in life. Between the lines, your own individual part of the enterprise tends to take over and say, “Okay, I’ve got this, I’ll drive, I know what I’m…

  • Experiencing the color orange

    [Me:] We’re not there yet, in terms of putting this clearly, are we? Is that because I’m out of practice? [Rita:} It is because you are out of your accustomed comfort zone, intellectually. This is always going to be a problem, for anybody except trance mediums. To move into new territory, you must somewhat suspend…

  • One thing, three aspects

    [Rita:] You were awakened with a realization that the spatial analogy has snuck in to distort – or anyway to shape – your understanding of the nature of the individual mind and the joint mind and the larger being, etc. And I get strongly that this is why I was led to pick up my…

  • A matter of scale

    [Rita:] I said we want to re-cover the ground covered last year. So let us begin. You will recall, I began by insisting on the unity of all things. Separations are merely relative separations, separations of function perhaps, or even what we might call separations of convenience. Sometimes the only way to look at a…

  • Some things can’t be said, though they are known

    [Rita:] Let’s look at reality as it appears from a higher level, a more inclusive level, than the so-called individual. I have been at some pains to reinforce what the guys told us [in our sessions in 2001-2002], that life is a series of monads in which aggregations of smaller-scale communities function as individuals within…

  • A process of inadvertent modification

    [Rita:] I’m hesitating at the brink, to find the pathway via your mind, to get where I want us to go. Anything coming in by non-sensory means is still subject to interpretation by the mind of the person in 3D, no less than if the person were interpreting (making sense of) sensory data. So the…

  • Things that interest us

    Wednesday, December 11, 2024 4:25 a.m. Okay, let’s see if we can have an actual session. Yesterday’s drumming in the engineers’ group centered on the question, “Why do the things that spark my interest do so?” Your answer was: “This is worth a full conversation when you are up to it. The question as posed…

  • Difference of scale

    [Rita:] What we are now attempting to do is like TGU attempting to give us an outside view of themselves. I’ve been sort of thinking of you as one of TGU now. We need to make a distinction between intelligences focused on a body versus those who aren’t. At first it appears to be physical…

  • Sin and opportunity

    Thursday, December 12, 2024 9 a.m. Perhaps we can continue from where we left off yesterday. So, sin as opportunity? We smile. Yes, but not yes to everything that phrase may suggest. In this discussion we are going to have to stick closely to the main line of thought, and resist diversions, which will present…
