00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:06,000
There are many times when people
suddenly get a true sense or a

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:10,000
feeling about something that is
not directly perceptible to

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:14,500
their senses sometimes when will
feel that someone is watching or

4
00:00:14,500 --> 00:00:19,600
following, although the person
cannot be seen or heard, there

5
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,800
is some inner sense with a wider
and more subtle range than the

6
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,200
physical sense.
Organs that can pick up these

7
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,200
impressions.
Albert, Einstein, and Nikola

8
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,800
Tesla among many others
considered to be creative

9
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:39,100
Geniuses in their own field.
Have made statements about how

10
00:00:39,100 --> 00:00:43,300
the logical mental reasoning
process of their external mind

11
00:00:43,700 --> 00:00:46,700
was unable to solve the things
they were considering.

12
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,900
But when their minds fell
silent, they received

13
00:00:50,900 --> 00:00:57,300
inspiration intuition, even in
some cases visions that provided

14
00:00:57,300 --> 00:01:01,400
them an entirely new way of of
seeing and understanding things

15
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,700
that led to the breakthroughs
they experienced and the

16
00:01:05,700 --> 00:01:10,500
creative process that resulted
this is an example of what we

17
00:01:10,500 --> 00:01:14,000
would call the inner mind in
contact with the larger

18
00:01:14,100 --> 00:01:19,900
Universal Mind.
Dr. Dalal notes, quote behind

19
00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:22,400
the surface, or frontal
consciousness of the outer

20
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,400
being.
There is an inner or subliminal

21
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:31,200
Consciousness upon all the three
levels, physical vital mental.

22
00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:37,200
Thus, there is an inner mind and
inner vital and an inner

23
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,700
physical.
The inner mind is in touch with

24
00:01:40,700 --> 00:01:45,600
the universal mind, the inner
vital with the universal life

25
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:50,500
forces, and the inner physical,
with the universal physical

26
00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:55,100
forces around us.
Thus, we are as the outer being

27
00:01:55,100 --> 00:01:58,900
knows, things only indirectly
from their outer touches as

28
00:01:58,900 --> 00:02:02,300
perceive through the senses and
the outer mind.

29
00:02:02,900 --> 00:02:06,400
The inner being is directly
aware of the surrounding

30
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:12,500
Universal forces that act,
Through us. in quote, reference
