Dialogues - Conversations With My Higher Self
More on Memory
Session 28
You said previously that ‘the non-resistant experience
is an ‘impression’ upon the consciousness.’ How
does consciousness store an impression of its experiences?
Consider the pool of water. When a stone is dropped in to the pool,
it makes ‘ripples’ upon the surface of the water, which
interact with each other. The deepness of the experience is expressed
by the power of the ripples. When the ripples reflect back off the
shore, they return and interface again with the ripples going out,
creating a very complex pattern of vibration.
Yes but how is the experience stored so it can be remembered?
Obviously, once the ripples disappear, there is no way to retrieve
that particular pattern so it can’t ever be remembered again.
You are assuming there is ‘storage’ when there is not.
You see, you conceive of a static recording or database which can
be reactivated upon request, by another signal. Remember our discussion
on awareness –– there is no ‘time,’ or start
point, or end point. Once the circle is completed, there is simply
awareness forever and no conception of a ‘time’ where
there was no awareness. The experience simply IS, ‘forever’
as consciousness reflects back on itself!
This is hard to conceive, since something which IS, like a memory,
must occupy space in/on consciousness itself — how does one
distinguish between different experiences?
We don’t know how to say it without saying that the experience
just IS, forever!
We assure you that every experience you have ever had is, and you
may be that experience again and again. We may say it is like having
a perfect ‘observer’ within each one of you, who ‘remembers’
everything in full sensory detail, but it is not like that at all,
unless we say that consciousness itself (you) is the observer!
It is simply that the being IS the experience, and every experience
is in this way re-experienceable. We gave you the picture of the
stone dropping upon the perfectly still water. In the instant of
its merging with the water there is a vibration created, but also
a sharp ‘feeling’ that something has occurred. From
perfect stillness, then to an ‘instant’ of sharp recognition–
of–difference that something has/is happening, then the resonance
with the experience.
Everything that is experienced is perceived poignantly, as the stone
that strikes the perfectly still water, yet one cannot describe
it in terms of ‘time’ because time is linear, and this
‘process’ is happening all–at–once, in every
‘moment’ of experience. There is simultaneity and also
knowledge of the identity of each new perception. It is magnificent!!!!
Just get the idea of the instant (the moment of NOW) when the stone
hits the perfectly still water, and you get the idea that each experience
is sharply distinct within itself and instantly recognizable to
consciousness. Each experience being differentiated from the last,
but each experience being not separated from all of the others,
because there can be no separation. Of course this sounds contradictory,
because in a physical universe there must be a separate space and
time for each event, but you can get the feeling from the pictures
and ideas we are sending you a little bit of what it is all about.
Every experience affects and interfaces with and resonates with
and enhances every other experience! It is this feeling of enhancement
that is so fulfilling to a conscious being, the feeling of becoming
more, of expanding in new and exciting ways. Everything that has
ever been experienced is available and is being made more by every
other experience. It is a wonderful feeling. It is the feeling of
aliveness. It is awareness itself.
Hmm…maybe I am not receiving you properly. How can one
access a memory using this system?
We will try again with some physical analogies! Every experience
is distinct, therefore every impression is distinct. When consciousness
wishes to retrieve an experience, it inputs the feeling of it, and
the ‘system’ (as you call it) responds with the complex
vibrational pattern of the experience, which is then re–interpreted,
NOW, exactly the way it was originally experienced in THAT NOW.
All experience occurs NOW!
The stone is dropped into the perfectly still pond, creating a series
of vibrations. The vibrational pattern is dependent upon the shape
and weight of the stone, the height, angle and speed with which
it is dropped. Every time the stone is dropped in PRECISELY the
same way, the same pattern is generated. The full recall of an experience
occurs when consciousness inputs the feeling it had during the experience.
Recall the grooves on a phonograph record. An entire symphony can
be recorded in one groove of the record. When the needle tracks
the vibration, the sound of every instrument is recreated. The vibrations
of the instruments combine, or are superposed, into one vibration.
We will try again. In a holographic image, an object is bathed in
a beam of laser light, and the reflection off the object meets another
beam of light that interacts with it, producing an interference
zone that is then recorded. The resulting image can be recreated
by shining the light upon the recording in precisely the same way
as during the recording. Every piece of the recorded image contains
all of the information of the whole. Now imagine a non–physical
medium that can ‘store’ an infinite number of vibrational
impressions. See? It is simple!!! (joke).
These are physical analogies and do not really convey the true nature
of memory and recall. We have probably confused you and your readers.
You will have to wait until your return for complete knowledge!
