Consciousness is the organizing and sustaining principle that provides the impetus and guidance to bring and keep energy in motion within agiven set o f p a r a m e t e r s s o t h a t a s p e c i fi c r e a l i t y w i l l r e s u l t , When consciousness reaches a state of sophistication in which it can perceive itself(its own hologram) it reaches the point of selfcognition. Human beings have this form of elevated c o n s c i o u s n e s s a s d o e s t h e A b s o l u t e b u t i n c a s e o f t h e l a t t e r, it is afunction of e n e r g y a n d i t s a s s o c i a t e d q u a l i t y o f c o n s c i o u s n e s s i n i n fi n i t y ( o m n i s c i e n c e a n d omnipotence in perceptual unity). when energy returns to astate of total rest within the Absolute, it returns to the continuiom of consciousness in the pool of limitless, timeless perception that resides there, Thus, the more complex an energy system in the material" state, the more consciousness it possesses to m a i n t a i n i t s r e a l i t y, Our consciousness, therefore, is that differentiated aspect of the universal consciousness which resides within the Absolute. It accounts for the organization of the energy patterns which constitute our physical body but is distinctly separate from and superior to it.

Since memory is afunction of consciousness and therefore enjoys the same eternal character as the consciousness which accounts for its existence it must be admitted that when consciousness returns to the Absolute it brings with it all the m e m o r i e s i t h a s a c c u m u l a t e d t h r o u g h e x p e r i e n c e i n r e a l i t y.

Gateway Method. Having put the Gateway Experience in context by postulating a structural outline of how and why it seems to work, and having shown what it is d e s i g n e d t o a c h i e v e , t h e t i m e h a s c o m e t o e x a m i n e t h e s p e c i fi c t e c h n i q u e s w h i c h comprise the Gateway training process. These techniques are designed to enable the user of the Gateway tapes to manipulate the high energy states which can'be achieved if the user continues to work with the tapes over aperiod of time. The amount of time required to reach advanced energy states and to fully exploit the techniques varies with the individual. The sensitivity of his nervous system, his general state of mind, and the extent to which he may have previously developed facility in related techniques such as transcendental meditation are all pertinent factors affecting the speed at which he may expect to progress. The Gateway process begins by teaching the individual participant to isolate extraneous concerns in avisualization device called an "energy conversion box. Next, the participant is introduced to amethod of encouraging his mind and body to strive to achieve astate of resonance through utterance of asingle tone, amonotonous, protracted humming sound that sets up afeeling of vibration particularly in the head. He engages in this "resonate tuning" as it is called by humming along with a chorus of such sounds that are contained on the Gateway tape. Following this, the p a r t i c i p a n t i s e x p o s e d t o t h e G a t e w a y a f fi r m a t i o n , a n d i s e n c o u r a g e d t o r e p e a t i t t o h i m s e l f a s h e h e a r s i t r e p e a t e d o n t h e t a p e .

Next comes the technique of progressive and systematic physical relaxation while the Hemi-Sync frequencies are expanded to include additional forms of "pink and white" noise designed to put the physical body at the virtual threshhold of sleep as well as to calm the left .hemisphere of the mind while raising the right hemisphere to astate of heightened attentiveness. Once all of this is achieved, the participant is invited to envisage creation of an " e n e r g y b a l l o o n " c o m p r i s e d o f a n e n e r g y fl o w b e g i n n i n g a t t h e c e n t e r o f t h e t o p o f the head and extending down in all directions to the feet.
