You now realize that the irritations you felt when someone did not go to bed
with you （or when things did not happen as you had planned when you did go
to bed） were given to you by your life to help you grow into higher
consciousness。 You now see that every sexual experience has helped to set
the stage for your present growth into higher consciousness。
So you learn to use sex （as well as everything else you do in your daily life）
to accelerate you on your journey into higher consciousness。 You realize that
your mind creates the world in which you live。 Your mind puts you in
different places and leads you to experience different things to help you grow
in consciousness。 You see the sexual dance as part of the drama of your life
and you know that when you are open； accepting； and loving； you will
experience the optimal happiness that awaits you。
Chapter 22
The Optimal Use of Your Bioputer
The human bioputer （or brain） is a fantastically sensitive instrument with
enormous capabilities。 But like any plex tool； it cannot be used optimally
unless cautions and training are given to the user。 We can easily be misled
into the illusion that our consciousness is aware of what is really happening
both inside our bioputer and in the outside world of our body and the
people and things around us。
Our consciousness is somewhat like the president of a large business who has
information on a small part of the space…time events that are going on in the
many offices and factories of the corporation。 The president receives
preprocessed abstracted information。 Normally； he works from abstractions
of abstractions。 It is therefore most important that he be conscious of this
abstracting process。 Similarly； you and I； as users of our magnificent
bioputers； should realize that our consciousness can only be aware of
perhaps one…millionth of the ining information each second of the day。
Every hair on our body is connected with our bioputer。 All of our internal
organs are constantly sending information to and receiving information from
our great bioputer usually on levels below our consciousness。 Our
receptor organs of sight； sound； touch； taste； and smell； plus the kinesthetic
senses which give information regarding our body are continually sending in
millions of impulses per second toward our bioputer。 The eye alone is
connected to the bioputer with over two million nerve fibers。 The ears
are connected to the bioputer by over a hundred thousand nerves。 This
tremendous mass of data going into our bioputer second by second would
be absolutely overwhelming if it were not for the underlying systems of
organization that automatically abstract； classify； suppress； or distribute this
huge flood of ining sensory information。 Our consciousness operates on
preprocessed； filtered abstractions of abstractions received from various parts
of our bioputer。
THE ABSTRACTING PROCESS
Our universe is made up of matter and energy。 Every material object is
posed of atoms； which in turn are made up of even finer subatomic
particles such as electrons。 These are in an incessant state of zizzy…fast
motion。 Atoms group together to form molecules； which are still too fine to
be registered by our five senses unless special instruments； such as an
electron microscope； are used。 The smooth table that I experience with my
fingers is an abstraction from the table on the atomic level that is posed
of flying atoms。 A characteristic of the abstracting process is that some
aspects are left out each time there is an abstraction。 When our senses report
the smoothness of a table； obviously a fantastic number of characteristics are
left out。 Our senses “manufacture” a smooth sensation by abstracting from
the colloidal； molecular； atomic； and subatomic activity that lies behind the
object reported by our sensory equipment。
Our senses do not permit us to tune in to reality they only pick up that small
aspect of reality that is transmittable through electromagnetic waves。 Further
abstractions take place when these are projected by the lenses of our eyes
onto our retinas and transformed again into electrochemical impulses that
proliferate throughout our brains。 As the circuits of our bioputer are
activated by the huge stream of ining electrical impulses； even more
abstracting takes place。 The tiny portion selected for projection onto the
screen of our consciousness represents a highly processed abstraction of an
abstraction of an abstraction； etc。
Our senses and our rational mind do not tune in to the world as it is。 the
picture of the world that es into our consciousness is mostly a creation of
the human bioputer with its vast memory bank and distorting addictive
programming。 These processed products that reach our consciousness reflect
the limitations and idiosyncrasies of our bioputer and the programming
from which it operates just as much as they reflect the outside energies that
spark the process。 The part that a hen plays in the production of an omelette
is analogous to the part the outside world plays in producing the stuff that is
projected onto the screen of our consciousness。 When we realize how our
minds manipulate； suppress； change； and distort； we begin to perceive the
awesome way in which our heads create our world。
Although the human bioputer works as an integrated system； it is possible
to point out certain neural structures that are especially important to the
student of human consciousness。 These are：
1。 The Cerebral Cortex
The cerebral cortex is a thin outer covering of the side and upper parts of the
convoluted surfaces of the brain which has from ten billion to thirteen billion
cortical cells。 These brain cells and their connections are the structures that
enable our remarkable rational mind to be aware of being aware； to use words
and symbols； and to prehend plex systems of thought； such as
mathematics； science； and art。 Generally； other animals have only a fraction
of the cortical cells that are our birthright as human beings。
Although we possess this remarkable equipment； we are not automatically
experts in how to use it。 Special training （such as the instructions contained
in this
