Changes

Tonight I would like to lead you into an [[experience]] of sensing a wider range of your [[mind]], as we go into this fullness theme, bringing it into a circle of completion from where we began with the idea of great-fullness. I would like you now to place your mental gaze upon a [[circuit]] board. Can all of you readily and easily glimpse this in your [[mind's eye]] now?

Students: Yes; more or less; what do you mean by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_board circuit board]?

Welmek: I will ask J. to [[explain]] this to you, R.

Student: First, I saw the old-fashioned telephone switchboard with an operator sitting in front of it with plugs. But then I thought of a computer chip that looks like a vast railroad yard going to the horizon in every direction. Millions and millions of cross-[[connections]].

Welmek: Does that assist you, R.? (Yes) Very well, let us continue. In your [[mind's eye]], as you see this [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_board circuit board], can you sense [[information]] coming into the intersections - these little switch points and circuit connectors? (pause) And now, can you sense information - or a sense of a [[flow]] of [[ideas]] or [[thoughts]] - into these intersecting points on the circuit board? (pause) And, finally, what do you [[perceive]], as you sense this circuit board, is the significance of having this system within you?

Student: Welmek, the best description of it I ever encountered was in [[UB|our textbook]], and it is the [[essence]] of what we are as an [[experiential]] being. We are a little nodule of God out here, experiencing our individual life.

Welmek: Thank you.

Welmek: Thank you.

Student: Yes, Welmek, I am of the same mind. I am not clear about what you are asking. But, at the same time, I feel like - if I am the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_board circuit board] - then I need to be plugged into something, in order to be united, in order to work, to bring life to [[the circuits]].

Welmek: Thank you. R., may I call upon you to [[share]] your [[thoughts]]?

Welmek: Thank you. R., may I call upon you to [[share]] your [[thoughts]]?

Welmek: You are most welcome, my friend.

Welmek: You are most welcome, my friend.

Student: Welmek, for me, what came to mind were a number of times in the past of [[intense]] [[crisis]], in the [[military]] and then afterwards [[experimenting]] with massive doses of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LSD LSD], and moments of insanity upon the [[death]] of my [[parents]]. And these were times when the whole nature of the [[reality]] I was in, the whole encompassing world, within me and without me, suddenly changed. Just a crystal [[clarity]] of what was real. It was like a gift - amazing [[grace]]. At times I felt as if I had this magical [[power]] I hadn't even realized. And I still don't know how much it was me and how much it was the mind - Her mind. What a [[discovery]]!

I'm still very [[thankful]] for that. On the [[death]] of my parents it was from a total kind of [[shock]] and loss to all of a sudden this glorious [[realization]] that they are on the way! They had a very good start. Nothing to worry about. They are doing fine.
