*** WAVE II: THRESHOLD ***


In Threshold you will be introduced to, and work with, Focus 12, the state
of expanded awareness. You will also reinforce and expand your Focus 10
(mind awake/body asleep) skills.
Each Wave of the Gateway Experience is based on the Wave(s) before it.
Threshold builds directly on Discovery tools and techniques, as well as on
information in the Discovery instructions. Therefore, the exercises in
Threshold are effective only if you have completed Discovery. Any use of
these exercises without such prior experience is not recommended.
Focus 12: Overview
Focus 12 is a state of expanded awareness: a high energy state where you
can become more conscious of inner resources and guidance. Many techniques discussed as part of Discovery may also be applied with specific Focus 12 tapes. Using these techniques at higher energy levels often produces entirely new experiences.
As with Focus 10, in Focus 12 you will find that you do not need to know
the way to guidance. Choose only to be guided. Not everyone clearly hears
voices, sees visions, or feels kinesthetic responses like we hear, see,
and feel in ordinary consciousness. Rarely do we perceive nonphysical
energy in exactly the same way we perceive in our physical, waking state.
Often, there is a knowing, a gestalt, or telepathic comprehension that we
normally translate into verbal language.
Through trust and patience, and continuing to invest energy in the process
of self-exploration, you will learn to perceive more clearly. Sometimes
this happens slowly, step by step, and sometimes this happens dramatically and suddenly, like water breaking though a dam.

Threshold #1: introduction to Focus 12

Trust this exercise and let it happen – enjoy whatever comes to you.
Effort is often counterproductive, and analyzing the 12-State is only
appropriate after the experience and not during it.
“Getting there” is a misnomer. If you allow the experi­ence to unfold
rather than work for it, the audio signals “take” you into Focus 12, as
you count from ten to twelve.
Remain open and receptive to change, and as your commitment to
self-discovery deepens, your 12-State will a cleepen, and you will explore
in many new ways.

Threshold #2: Problem Solving

Take a problem or question into Focus 12, place it at the center of your
consciousness (which, for example, may be in your heart, abdomen, or
head), and push it out, or let it flow out into your total awareness. Then
release it. The best answer or solution will come back to you in its own
way and in its own time. Frequently, this will happen during your tape
experience. Equally valid, however, is an answer or solution that may come
at some later time, in another place.
To seek solutions in this high energy state is the essence of this
exercise: receiving will come to those who have asked. Your desire to
know, the clarity of your question, and the intensity of your asking are
keys to what you receive and the way you receive it. Gratitude amplifies
the process.
Conventional relationships between questions and answers, problems and
solutions, tend to dissolve as new Focus 12 perspectives change the very
nature of the original question or problem. For instance, remember the man
who couldn't open his Energy Conversion Box? (Please see Energy Conversion
Box instructions on page 20.) The recognition of his tendency to use force
in most situations allowed his box to open easily. Thus, the assumed
problem (a locked box) is often not the actual problem (tendency to use
force). Solutions are seldom restricted to ordinary alternatives, and a
different question frequently provides the answer.
On the other hand, some answers and solutions appear so obvious or simple
that you may tend to discount them. Don't. There is often great power in
the simple and the obvious. If, at first, you feel as if you're creating
your own answers, gently acknowledge that if guidance is in any way
connected to a more complete or higher aspect of your total self, then
guidance would naturally seem to be coming from yourself, and therefore
would seem deeply familiar.
As you learned in Discovery, your biggest problem may well be, “What is my
problem?” and your biggest question, “What question should I be asking?”
If you remain puzzled about what to ask, approach this exercise from
another point of view and ask, “What is the most important information I
need to know at this moment?” And please remember, if guidance enters your
awareness from energy systems or realities more comprehensive than
ordinary consciousness, you severely limit the parameters of your
resources by framing all of your questions and problems from your waking
perspective. And remember the value of receiving guidance in the form of
humor and puns. (For review, please see Free Flow Methods of Exploration)
Experiment with creative techniques. If something isn't working, change
what you are doing. Use Focus 12 problem-solving techniques to be
innovative, to be creative, and to find solutions that best suit you.

Threshold #3: One-Month Patterning

This exercise introduces you to a powerful tool for taking charge of your
life. You may have already encountered techniques similar to this. We call
it Patterning.
This exercise works from the basic assumption that thoughts manifest as
things, and that which we think, we become. Accordingly, it's not a matter
of whether we pattern, but of how intensely and how deliberately we choose
what we think. As we deliberately make these choices in high energy
states, our patterns emerge around us reshaping our lives with a speed and
intensity unavailable in ordinary consciousness. To learn more about this
important tool, at least consider that the patterning process is a
possibility.
To create a pattern, think, feel, or imagine that which you desire to
become a part of your life. Patterning functions like problem solving:
place the pattern at the center of your consciousness and push it out or
let it flow strongly and surely out in all directions and in all ways.
Then release it. Releasing your pattern is very important. Doing so will
assist the emergence of the pattern in your life. One way to determine if
you have released your pattern is if you have a sense of ease and
detachment regarding it.
You can use the patterning process to create or enhance many areas of your life: your physical self, your mental self, your emotional self, and your
total self; for where you want to be, what you want to be doing, and what
you want to accomplish. There is nothing inherently wrong with asking for
material things. It does require a change in concept if you're from the
school of economic thought that says this is a world of scarce resources.
If so, please consider a concept that's very different – that this is a
universe of unlimited abundance – and there is nothing wrong with asking
for a share of that abundance.
Here are some key points that will help you make the most of patterning:
· Pattern only in the present tense. For example, “I am now
receiving...” If you pattern in the future tense, it can be' like a sign
in a supermarket window that says, “FREE SODA TOMORROW” – a tomorrow that never comes.
· Use “I” in your patterning statement and perceive yourself as an
active part of the pattern, so it doesn't wind up happening all around you
and not to you.
· Pattern only for yourself.
· Be clear about what you want. Do you want a new house or to be
happy where you live? Do you want to lose ten pounds, or to feel better
about yourself?
· Be specific. The more detail you put into your pattern, the more
likely you are to get what you're asking for.
· Be sure to ask for what you really want, because you'll likely get
exactly what you ask for!
· Put some feeling and conviction into it. Strong emotion will
vitalize and reinforce your intention. Then let it go. Any pattern set in
Focus 12 can be changed, reinforced, or cancelled in Focus 12. However,
don't keep checking on it or changing it because of doubts, fear, etc. A
fisherman has to leave his bait in the water for a while to get a bite,
just as when you plant a seed, you don't keep digging it up to see how it
is growing.
· For starters, it might be a good idea to pattern smaller,
reasonable requests. For example, if you pattern the first time for $10
million, at least a part of you is likely to doubt that it will really
work. If you start by patterning for $50 to $100 and prove to yourself it
works, then other, perhaps bigger, patterns are going to come more easily.
· Don't specify how your request will be fulfilled. Let the universe
or your total self decide and direct that.
· It is always a good idea to qualify your pattern, asking that it work only for the good of your total self.
This exercise is designed for a one-month patterning cycle. However, you
can override the time, requesting that patterns be fulfilled in other
cycles: a week, a year, by your next birthday. Or you can simply release
the pattern to be fulfilled in its own time.
Please look at this exercise as an introduction to patterning. Then
carefully consider how you would like to use the process, strengthening it
with the components of this exercise. The process of patterning may turn
some of your deepest assumptions into questions, which is also a Gateway
to freedom.

Threshold #4: Color Breathing

An ideal way to link psyche and soma, or mind and body, in Focus 10 is to
explore the degree to which colors resonate with, and thus activate, your
own energy. You can then quickly and easily develop and control your
physical and nonphysical energies. Once you are familiar with this
technique, experiment with other colors, and other purposes.
There are many ways besides visualization to perceive color mentally. For
instance, you may perceive it as sound, as vibrations, or as other
sensations. One Gateway participant, blind since birth, experienced
different colors as different textures.
During this exercise, you will inhale vibrant, sparkling energy. Perceive
bright green as you hold this energy within you. Then exhale, moving calm,
cleansing green energy down through your body. This will push any harmful
emotion out and away from you, reducing all stress and tension as you feel
calm and serene.
Use the same process with vibrant red to recharge your physical body and
for acts requiring speed, strength, and coordination.
Perceive radiant, bright white light pouring down from a source above you
into the palms of your hands as you inhale, feeling it spread through your
entire system. This is “energy, food,” which can nourish you on physical,
mental, emotional, and spiritual levels.
Use vibrant purple to heal, restore, and balance the physical body, by
sending purple to that part of your body requiring help as you say in your
mind: “Heal, balance.''
In healing, you are creating or maintaining a healthy, body. Therefore,
never energize the actual problem. Even when you energize a body area in
need of repair, end your healing process by visualizing, or otherwise
perceiving, your body as well, whole, and perfect. By doing so, you are
not reinforcing the ailment; you are directing your resources to build or
maintain sound health.
Because we live in time-space, we typically, think in terms of sending
energy. As you become familiar with “Color Breathing,” consider that this
method of healing is a merging of energy. Furthermore, assume that you can
gather energy from an inexhaustible source; therefore, you can
purposefully and freely expend energy.
It is also possible to merge your energy with the energy of someone else.
Remember that when providing energy for another person, it is their innate
right to choose whether or not, or how, to use it. Rather than intend
their purposes for them, even if you think that purpose is “getting well,”
simply offer the energy with the intention that it be beneficial and
constructive to the person's total self. By doing so, you will be
respecting their purpose, a purpose you may not be aware of at the time.
At the end of the tape, you will move to Focus 12 and reinforce the
process of patterning, affirming that the patterns you build in your mind
and release into your expanded consciousness will immediately begin to
form and develop around you.

Threshold #5: Energy Bar Tool (EBT)

“Power sticks” abound in both our history and mythology as links between
human and spiritual forces, or as connectors between physical and
nonphysical energies. Moses turned his staff into a serpent. Kings,
queens, pharaohs, and high priests carried symbolic maces and scepters.
Excalibur led King Arthur into battle, and Merlin focused his power
through a wand. Diana, the Roman goddess of the moon and of hunting,
carried her bow and arrows. And in the Star Wars films, light sabers
linked the Jedi Knights to The Force.
Find or create your own Energy Bar Tool (EBT) in Focus 10 – one that is
personal enough to share your identity, and through which you can induce
or gather, focus and direct nonphysical energies.
To create and charge your EBT, you will extend a dot of light into a bar,
turning it on and off as you allow the process to speed up until the bar
is pulsing like a strobe. As the speed increases, deliberately
disassociate yourself from the words “on” and “off,” and from the pace of
your breathing. Then begin to make your EBT thicker and thinner. No matter how vague it may seem at first, simply concentrate and focus on your EBT and feel it develop. Sense the charged, electrical vibration of warmth.
You may feel it as a total body sensa­tion, as localized, or as moving and
spreading. Allow this pulsing, vibrational energy to build in intensity.
Excess energy, such as a sense of heat, can be released by moving it out
and away with Resonant Tuning.
Many people simply use their hands as energy bar tools, building and
sensing the pulse patterns within themselves. You can also direct energy
from any other body location.
Notice that you control only your own energy, and you can attune to, or
harmonize with, external, energies. Thus, you establish resonance with,
rather than control over, other people, animals, plants, and even the
earth itself.
As you explore energy systems, you will find many uses for your EBT. In
Wave III, Freedom, you will explore its potential for Remote Viewing. You
can also let it grow large enough to become a vortex or tunnel and dive
through it to explore further. You can place one end in your Energy
Conversion Box and see what happens; or use it as a beacon or antenna to attract guidance or other intelligence. Give it a voice, or allow it to
shift shape. Even though you lead it in the beginning, you may find it
leading you before long. These are intended to be suggestions, not
limitations. With practice, the forms and uses of your EBT are limitless.
Find a place to keep your EBT so it will always be there for you, knowing
that its power is reciprocal: as you recharge it, it will recharge you.

Threshold #6: Living Body Map (LBM)

By creating a Living Body Map (LBM) as an energy tool, you can learn to
balance and strengthen your physical body, as well as recharge and
energize it. In this exercise, you use energy to influence energy,
assuming that the physical will automatically respond. Since maps
represent the territory objectively, you create both the perspective and
the detachment useful in healing.
Think about or visualize the outline of your physical body in sparkling
white light, as if it were a map of you – a totally nonphysical,
pure-energy “you.”
To think an image, even a color, is to create it, and that thought-image
can have as much power as any visual-image. To be a visualizer means you
have a nice feedback system, but one that is not a necessary condition for
working with energy states.
You will change your bright white energy map to red, representing your
circulatory system, blue to represent your nervous system, yellow for your
organs and glandular system, and finally orange for your muscle and bone
structure. By placing your LBM over your physical body, you will be able to sense any dim or flickering places. As you do this, let bright purple healing energy flow from your Energy Bar Tool to any such places, thereby merging these energies. Do so until your whole energy body is even and balanced, sparkling and white.
Then, starting at the top of your LBM, wash and bathe it completely with
bright purple energy, washing out all impurities and recharging every part
of your body.
Repeat this procedure as you charge your LBM in sequence from sparkling
white to red, blue, yellow, and orange, healing and recharging each system
independently.
Encoding Relax
The One-Breath Technique
With practice, each of the energy tools you create, explore, and use in
the Gateway Experience can become available to you quickly and powerfully
in ordinary consciousness. The more you use them, the more effective they
become.
Simply inhale vibrant, sparkling energy, and activate your desired energy
tool on the exhale. You can do this without anyone noticing. To go to
Focus, think “ten” or “twelve” as you inhale vital energy, and move to
Focus 10 or Focus 12 as you exhale. Extend your REBAL, then ask a
question, or create a pattern with one breath.
For example, at the first sign of any unwanted energy, inhale and send
calm, soothing green surging through your body. Experiment. If you're
sleepy while driving at night, breathe the vibrant red light of tail
lights or stoplights, sending the strength and vitality of red throughout
your system. If you need energy at any level – physical, emotional,
mental, or spiritual – breathe energy food from a source above you into
your palms, allowing it fill your entire body.
