will be reabsorbed into the radiating nucleus and then the Absolute,
it generates
the interference pattern within the cosmic egg which constitutes the universal
hologram or Torus.
Since the Torus
is being simultaneously generated by matter in
all the various phases of
"time",
it reflects the development of the universe in
the past, present and future (as
it would be seen from our particular perspective m
one phase
of
time).
By reflecting on this model,
it becomes possible to
"see" how
human consciousness brought to a sufficiently altered(focused)
state could obtain
information concerning the past, present an future since they all exist in the
universal hologram simultaneously ( In the case
of
the future because all
of
the
consequences of the past and present can be seen coming together in the hologram
such that the future can be predicted or
"seen" with total accuracy).
Moreover,
it
is possible to see how the implosion of energy patterns would cross and recross to
create an incredibly complex four dimensional hologram or Torus,
in spiral shape in
reflection of the multi-dimensional developing pattern of evolution.
All
of
the
movements of the energies which comprise the universe leave their mark and hence
tell their story throughout time.
26 .
Quality of Consciousness.
We noted earlier that the out-of-body state
involves projection of
a major portion of the energy pattern that represents human
consciousness so that it may move either freely throughout the terrestrial sphere
for purposes of information aquisition or into other dimensions outside
of
time-space,
perhaps to interact with other forms of consciousness within the
universe.
Consciousness
is the organizing and sustaining principle that provides
the impetus and guidance to bring and keep energy in motion within a given set of
parameters so that
a specific reality will result.
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
consciousness as does the Absolute but
in case of the
latter,
it is a function of
energy and its associated quality of consciousness in infinity (omniscience and
omnipotence in perceptual unity).
When energy returns to
a state of total rest
within the Absolute,
it returns to the continuum 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
maintain its reality.
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 consciousness exists quite
apart from and outside
of
reality,
beyond the bounds of
time-space,
it,
like the
Absolute,
has neither beginning nor end.
Reality has both a beginning and an end
because it is bounded within time-space,
but the fundamental quantum of energy and
its associated consciousness
is eternal.
When reality ends,
its constituent energy
simply returns to infinity in the Absolute.
27 .
Consciousness in Perspective.
Having ascertained that human consciousness
is
able to separate from physical reality and interact with other intelligences in
other dimensions within the universe,
and that it is both eternal and destined for
ultimate return to the Absolute we are faced with the question:
"So what happens
then?"
Since memory is a function 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
memories
it has accumulated through experience
in reality.
The return of
consciousness to the Absolute does not imply an extinction of the separate entity
which the consciousness organized and sustained in reality.
Rather,
it suggests
a
differentiated consciousness which merges with and participates in the universal
consciousness and infinity
of
the Absolute without losing the separate identity and

i
accummulated self-knowledge which its memories confer upon
it.
What it does lose
is the capability for generation of independent thought holograms ,
since that can
be done only by energy in motion.
In other words,
it retains the power to perceive
but loses the power of will or choice.
In exchange,
however,
this consciousness
participates in the all-knowing infinite continuum of consciousness which is
a
characteristic
of energy in the ever present.
Consequently,
it
is accurate to
observe that when a person experiences the out-of- body state he
is,
in fact,
projecting that eternal spark of consciousness and memory which constitutes the
ultimate source of his identity to let it play in and learn from dimensions both
inside and outside the time-space world in which his physical component currently
enjoys
a short period of reality.

Gateway Method.
Having put the Gateway Experience in context by postulating
a
structural outline of how and why it seems to work,
and haying shown what it is
designed to achieve,
the time has come to examine the specific techniques which
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 a period 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 a visualization device called an "energy conversion box.
Next,
the
participant is introduced to a method of encouraging his mind and body to strive to
achieve a state
of resonance through utterance
of
a single tone,
a monotonous,
protracted humming sound that sets up a feeling 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
participant
is exposed to the Gateway affirmation,
and is encouraged to repeat it
to himself
as he hears it repeated on the tape.
This affirmation is
a statement to
the effect that the individual realizes that he
is more than merely
a physical body
and that he deeply desires to expand his consciousness.
29.
Hemi-Sync Introduced.
After that,
he
is exposed for the first time to the
Hemi-Sync sound frequencies,
and is encouraged to focus on and develop a perception
of and appreciation for those feelings which accompany the synchronization of
brainwaves that results.
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
a state of heightened attentiveness.
Once
all of this
is achieved,
the participant is invited to envisage creation of
an
"energy balloon" comprised of an energy flow beginning at the center
of
the top of
the head and extending down in all directions to the feet.
The energy involved in
this flow then proceeds up through the body and back out into the balloon pattern
again
The "energy balloon", which sets up a pattern very reminiscent of
the
cosmic egg discussed earlier,
not only enhances bodily energy flow and encourages
early achievement of
a suitable resonant state but it
is also designed to provide
protection against conscious entities possessing lower energy levels which the
participant might encounter in the event that he achieves an out-of-body,
state.
It serves
a precautionary purpose in the unlikely event that the participant s
first out-of-body experience involves direct projection outside the terrestrial
sphere

Advanced Techniques.
Having reached Focus
10,
the participant is now^ready to
endeavor to achieve
a state of sufficiently expanded awareness to begxn actually
interacting with dimensions beyond those associated with his experxence of physical
reality.
This state is called Focus 12 and involves conscious efforts on his part
while additional forms
of
"pink and white noise" enter the sound stream being
directed into his ears from the Gateway tape.
Once the participant has achieved
this state of greatly expanded awareness,
he
is ready to begin employing
a series
of specific techniques or "tools" as the Monroe Institute characterizes them which
enable him to manipulate his newly found expanded awareness to obtain practice
,
useful feedback of value for promoting self-discovery and personal growth.
T
specific techniques involved are described individually below.
A
Problem Solving.
This technique involves identifying fundamental Problems
which the individual wishes to see
solved,
filling his expanded awareness with his
perception of these problems and then projecting them out into the universe.
In
this way,
the individual enlists the assistance
of what Monroe Institute Bealls his
"hiqher self",
in other words his expanded consciousness,
to interact wit
e
universal hologram to obtain the information required to solve the problem
This
approach may be used to solve personal difficulties,
technical problems in the
realm of physics,
mathmatics,
etc., practical administrative problems,
and so on
Responses to the problem solving technique may be received almost immediately,
but
often they come based on developing intuition over the next two to three days.
Frequently the response comes in the form of
a sudden,
holistic perception m which
the individual suddenly finds that
he simply knows the answer in all of
its
ramifications and completely in context,
sometimes without even being able to put
his newly found perception into words,
at least
initially.
In some cases,
the
response may even arrive
in the form of visual symbols which the individual
will" see" with his mind while
he
is
in the Focus
12 state and which he will have to
interpret after he returns to normal consciousness.
B.
Patterning.
This technique involves use of
the consciousness to achieve
desired objectives in the physical,
emotional,
or intellectual sphere.
It mvo ves
concentration on the desired objective while in
a Focus
state,
extension of
t
individual's perception of that objective into the whole expanded consciousne
,
and its projection into the universe with the intention that the desired objective
is already a matter of established achievement which is destined to be realized
within the time frame specified.
This particular methodology
is based on the
belief that the thought patterns generated by our consciousness in a state
of
expanded awareness create holograms which represent the situation we desire to
bring about and,
in so doing,
establish the basis for actual realization of that
goal.
Once the thought-generated hologram of the sought after objective
is
established in the universe it becomes an aspect of reality which interacts wit
the universal hologram to bring about the desired objective which might not,
under
other circumstances,
ever occur.
In other words,
the technique of patterning
recognizes the fact that since consciousness
is the source
of
all reality,
ou
thoughts have the power to influence the development of reality in time-space as
it
applies to us
if those thoughts can be projected with adequate intensity.
However,
the more complicated the objective sought and the more radically it departs from
our current reality,
the more time the universal hologram will need to reorient ou
reality sphere to accomodate our desires.
Monroe trainers caution against
attempting to force the pace of
this process because the individual could succeed
in dislocating his existing reality with drastic consequences.
C.
Color Breathing.
The next technique
is called color breathing and is
