opportunity to pass on messages. Because this is a part of the ego, its fear is it will die if you are not giving it attention. By giving this personified thought a place to exist, a voice to speak, and a purpose to see you; its fears are replaced with a willingness to help. Then these thought forms will not randomly manifest in your thoughts as you are trying to focus and concentrate. These personified guardians can accompany you on to higher focus level adventures. The guardians can provide additional focus energy. They can step in to deal with distractions and help in difficult situations. At some point you will pass through F12 and the throne will be empty. This means you have resolved that thought. There are many thrones available as each alcove has a throne for guardians to rest. This is one method to neutralize karma if you identify with that concept. You can see how creatively responding in love to all of life's challenges yields a result that moves you forward to another level of understanding. Bob Monroe spent a lot of time on certain focus levels such as F10, F12, F15, F21, and F27. These levels were significant because they are

identifiable divisions in brain wave patterns. The early focus levels are where tools are developed in the Gateway meditations. Tools such 55 as Reball, Energy conversion box, Light Bar, and introduction to guides. These focus levels are assigned to specific types of activities, such as Alpha Delta (mind awake, body sleeping). This is where you practice maintaining conscious awareness. As the body rests, physical sensory inputs are replaced by virtual body inputs. You learn to see, hear, taste, smell, speak, work with your hands, and move in this meditative environment. It is normal for your attention to drift to aspective thoughts or to fall asleep. This is where having a guardian to protect your awareness and resolving aspective issues allows for focused and peaceful meditations. Some people invoke their spiritual guides, such as Jesus, for this purpose. Bob Monroe describes Focus 12 in his book “Ultimate Journey” p. 279. “This may be loosely identified as a state of expanded awareness. Induced by additional sound patterns, Focus 12 is a phase state with still less attention to the physical body and more movement into (M) Field energy. With the continued lessening of physical sensory
input, perception of (M) Field patterns becomes progressively clearer. It is not unfamiliar territory. In physical waking consciousness, the overwhelming sensory input from the physical body covers most, if not all, of such perception. The only penetration usually occurs during sleep or other states where human physical consciousness has been abandoned. The difference in Focus 12 lies in the fact that physical consciousness remains active and alert, under your own control. In early exploration, colors, shapes, mental pictures both still and moving may appear—the stuff that dreams are made of. As the mind takes charge and begins to learn the (M) Field language, as it were, an entirely new vista is opened, waiting to be experienced and assessed. Unknowns become knowns at a rapid rate in this new context.” The important point to learn here is there is a change in the relationship you have with the internal dialogue you have with yourself. As you work to resolve these distracting thoughts you will become thankful when these thoughts present themselves for you to pay attention to them. These thoughts come from the unconscious or they may come from outside of your being but have triggered a memory
