The third category is a vision or lifelike dream. Precognitive. Can change the course of a person’s life.
The fourth category is the apparition. May be seen by others. Vision at Fatima; ghost.
The last category is physical. The door to the mind through the physical senses. Hologram. Mirage. Bible that disintegrated when touched by the possessed boy, in the story behind the Exorcist movie.
These projections are three-dimensional and they are often audio-visual.

… with the touch sensation appearing in thoughts less frequently than the smell and taste sensations. We cannot think about our thoughts but we can think about thinking.
Etc.
min 45 Now that’s a prolonged bit of evaluation, more than a koan. But I hope that in thinking about thinking you start possibly to look upon our relation to our source. Our life is projected upon us. And in one of the Zen books, I ran across this little saying, I forget who wrote it, it doesn’t matter, that the eye that looks upon God is the same eye that God looks upon man. Basically we have to look. And we find, I think, that after you concentrate upon your internal nature, you automatically become one with that which in turn is projecting things upon you.
And for what it’s worth I’ll turn this over to some questions.
Yes.
Q&A.
Side 2 - File 2
45 minutes.
Many opinions are rooted in a certain amount of validity on both sides. I wasn’t there. Some people say Christ was a politician. But I found that some of his accounts correspond with experiences of people who were enlightened.
“I and the father are one” is one of these.
I believe there are brief moments when you can stop your thoughts. In Zen they talk about killing the mind, but it’s very hard to kill your own mind. It’s usually precipitated by an external cause.
Truth has no religion all locked up for itself.
Paul Wood, looked alike a double for Crazy Guggenheim on the Jackie Gleason show.
Min 10 In our comprehension there is nothing beyond the Absolute. In our comprehension. If there is something, it’s beyond our comprehension.
Min 34 I looked up Pulyan after this happened. Need to have a language. In rapport the two heads are one. I sought him out when I found out he could transmit.
There has to be a certain complexity of thought. Living off bananas you won’t have the mental capacity.
St. John of the Cross was put in jail.
There’s no point in not doing anything. You’re going to have plenty of time in the cemetery.
You don’t get the answer right away, and if you don’t get the answer right away you’ll bound to be disgusted.
First year I devote to getting them off dope.
If you want milk from your cows you keep them contented.
All my meditation is done on my feet. I go for walks.
If you have 16 running faucets you won’t build up much pressure.
