    Dear M,

    >> with the Moon I receiving one flash in which I sensed that the Moon
    has a very intimate connection with myself (and the rest of earth),
    though I didn't seem to perceive the details. <<

    This is what I mean about direct perception being pre-cognitive. The
    details emerge with the descent of the direct perception into the
    thinking and feeling aspects of the mind. The direct perception itself
    however, contains a nearly infinite amount of information -- too much to
    grasp as a complete set of details all at once. It takes time for the
    thinking and feeling mind to process that overwhelming quantity of
    information.

    >> The experiences seem to unveil a kind of vibrant beauty that
    reappears when I look at the subject again (without trying to perceive
    it's e.m.). <<

    :) This is because you *have* directly perceived its EM. Now you
    recognize the EM component of your normal perception. We always
    perceive EM, whether we realize it for what it is or not, but when we do
    recognize it consciously as EM, we thereafter recognize the role it
    plays in our normal perceptions.

    >> On an unrelated note, I have been reading a book to do with Franz
    Bardon/Hermetics lately, and the author really labours the point of how
    correctly performed pranayama is indespensable to making progress with
    IIH - he says it opens the Chakras, but doesn't this happen in step
    three? <<

    Someone sent me an excerpt from that book the other day, outlining the
    author's suggestions of what one must do *before* even starting Step
    One. While these things may have been necessary for the author himself,
    they are not requirements for beginning IIH. IIH *already* starts at
    the beginning -- it doesn't need a bunch of exercises added to it in
    order to make it doable, as that author implied.

    I very strongly disagree with the idea that pranayama for the purpose of
    forcing the chakras open is "indispensable", let alone even wise. The
    chakras open naturally through the student's process of maturation as a
    direct result of the IIH work. No where in IIH did Bardon in any way
    suggest or recommend forcing the chakras open.

    My best to you,
    :) Rawn Clark
