Robert A. Monroe GATEWAY VOYAGE Talks - Saturday Nights

Robert A. Monroe Saturday Night GATEWAY Talk 1988-09-17 (Transcript) NOTE: This is a raw transcript – it is exactly as created by otter.ai. Bob Monroe 00:01 or 13, these kind of things. So we use number one as to indicate the state in which you are right now, state of wakefulness, left brain dominant. Your attention is here and around in this this URI all within this consciousness is working with and considering in that area of knowns, you feel comfortable here. You're working with knowns as a result, because you are working with knowns, you feel safe and secure. Tomorrow is partially unknown. So you have an insecurity about tomorrow. But right now, here you are, there are things you know, you know, you're sitting here, you know, I'm talking to you, you think. And so that's a familiar here, area around here is a massive unknown. This is that box that you're greeted by this barrier is not Q the did it greeted by others, primarily, just the instant you were born here. moving upward through this pattern, what we do in gateway, is we put a beacon signpost guideposts appeared, we call that focus 10. We then in turn, help you your consciousness consciously, willfully move from here to focus and back and forth, back and forth. Until going in being in focus 10 and returning is as well known as your path of getting up and getting out of bed or going to the bathroom in your own home. It's that simple, and that prosaic and the boredom of that knowledge of getting from there to there, you feel tremendously safe and secure, even here in this little area of knowledge that you be there knowing, not believing because you know that are in easy flesh, you can quote perceive, here's no one from so you know, in your back. Theater worry, you lose any fears of being deep in this dark and ominous, unknown while you begin after wallowing around here for a bit you then begin and being bored, you begin to explore around and you begin to open and get into these areas of unknown and begin to chew them up and make them known in his focus 10 What is focused in very simply put its mind awake, body asleep. simplest definition. The most important facet of it is that all of your five physical senses have been deep tuned. So the input is reduced in them. And you make this very remarkable discovery. And that is that you do not need this physical sensory input to be conscious. It's a tremendous revelation. And you find this out for yourself because you experience it and work with it. You are conscious and have all the types of mentation that you would have a huge desire to have without that physical sensory input tells you many many things blow out a candle and vocalize at the same time you don't have to do it that's after you boil the candle it is tough but you can I've never heard of a pretty good yeah you could do they never thought here is that they can after we flew around with Kenny you get to know that and number of courses of action you can do you can before you get bored. We set up another beacon guide post here which we call focus 12. What is focused well does sound like there's just a couple numbers up. Focus 12 is another state of consciousness Would you learn these and apply where once these physical sensory input signals have been put into a lower level of input there appears on mass of signals that have been supplemented or overwhelmed by this heavy physical data and these begin to surface the Keith, this even more firmly in place, we established focus 12 which is a loosely put a space for expanded awareness where you perceive in other means, and they are a number of different means, and then 12 You begin to appreciate something else and that is that you are on the edge of another means of communication and we call it non physical communication or nonverbal communication. Because words can't do it. It's another type of perceiving and knowing that begins to surface when these other signals are preceded, and to understand them and use them, you have to begin to use this other means of communication and just to titillate you a little bit from my own knowledge and member I say believe not all other intelligent energy systems, either physical or non physical use this particular means of communication, words of passe or maybe never did originate. And you can play with that one, but you will. After that in order to really get things going in a fairly strong way. We establish another beacon guideposts in that we call focus 15 What in the world is a 15 day well as getting warmed up to the real stuff 15 is a state work for you and your consciousness time does not exist Bob Monroe 07:45 we've already begun to set the stage for that you see, because by the time you get playing around at 15 No problem you will have a good time there 15 Is has some very fancy qualities if you can think of 15th as where your consciousness the slash awareness is the center of a hub of a wheel. And that you have entered that state via one of the spokes of that wheel and time is along the rim of that wheel. And bear in mind that you have done this willfully with full consciousness. You can then consider of course, once you get real hotshot any top gun that you can very simply in that hub and you came in on September ADH spoke that there's your proficiency didn't let you alter that slightly and go out on a spoke to the rim. That's something other than September 88 I will say no more you use a more gutsy guy and get played with after you've gotten into this because 15 If you don't do something is indeed boring I got news I wouldn't want to spoil it by showing you are young indicating where that line leads. Because you will find out very soon. So so that you have the point of reference as to where and what all of this is. Let's go back to my super line and bear in mind that then line of demarcation. That particular line of demarcation is not quick click on bow The size of it is a gray area. And so in other words, it's in this line, you're more there than here on this side of it, you're more here than there. But it's, it's it's a degree thing where this is sort of like a no point between two energy systems, if you think of it that way, therefore it's not a firm diametric thing now, there's that line of demarcation as it really is that no point and that's where you're playing. is in that gray area. of unknown permeating by beliefs Bob Monroe 10:56 when I said this, I've just illustrated that this is sort of a blow up. Here's this gray area long in here. And up in here. Here's this big heavy line of demarcation. Here is this gray area on each side of this line put it another way, there's the gray area in that square you're working is in that gray area. On the edge of that line of demarcation between knowns and unknowns. Does that help a little bit Bob Monroe 11:47 my job is in helping you play with this is pretty direct. I'm the upset or I'm the guy with a cattle prod like if you don't know what a cattle fried is just a nice thing. And those of you who've been out in the country have cattle prod is little thing that helps prod cattle it's a little thing with a battery sticks out there's two prongs or two poles you stick it on the back of the cattle and push the button and you miss a nice electrical charge the goggles Bob Monroe 12:29 so my job is to be sure that you don't get complacent. My job is to help you have fun with all this is indeed fun it is. And one of the things that to indicate how non verbal works better than verbal. I can gather up here for an hour and there will be something that can tell it much better and much more graphically. So we look around and we try to find illustrations and of course a picture's worth 1000 words and a color picture 10,000 words and a color talking picture is worth an awful lot. Would you believe we have one that demonstrates this whole fear barrier system. Very beautiful.
