The Winds of Wonder

I have a curious impression …

7 August 1971

My memory is completely gone. I have impressions, but no memory. Impressions that underlie everything — that’s probably what will replace memory.

I have a curious impression of a kind of web with very loose threads, I mean not tightly meshed. If you have power over one, there’s a whole field of circumstances linked together in such a way that one necessarily implies the existence of the other. And I have the impression it’s something that envelops the earth.

And it’s not mental. They are circumstances that depend on one another, in a completely invisible way outwardly, without any mental logic, and yet as though connected to each other. If you are conscious, that’s how you can change circumstances. If you had the power to replace one of those webs with another one, you could change all circumstances that way. It’s inexpressible.

I am conscious of the Action on small points, now it is here, now there; there’s nothing continuous as in the mind. Inexpressible.
