Frank,

What would a person's perception be if it was'nt influenced by their beliefs? Surely, their perspective would be much clearer?

Thank you Frank & MajorTom.

The idea you always have to hold in mind when adopting any kind of model, is that the words and the models are NOT the actual territory! My Phasing Model, is merely my best attempt yet at presenting a map of the wider reality, or what some people call "all that is". In your explorations, you must hold the idea of the map or model in mind, while simultaneously seeking to "remember" what that model signifies.

Never forget, the map is NOT the territory.

I'm making a particular point of this because I see people fall into this trap all the time with the more mystical models. Which is all very well, I suppose, but I don't want people making that mistake with my own model, as it would defeat the whole purpose of my developing it.

Is that the reason Monroe did'nt go beyond Focus 27, because he got stuck in that trap of mistaking the territory for the map? Also, is what you call the map equivalent with what you call a belief construct and is that the reason why people returning from their physical experience go through a period of shaking off their belief constructs in Focus 3oC in order to enable them to merge fully with subjective reality, Focus 4oC? Or in other words, is it the beliefs which prevent the awareness of Focus 4oC and bound one to Monroe's Focuses 1-27? Should one not be bound by their beliefs, would that result in loss of usual sense of self and reality?

MajorTom, might it be an idea for you to add your first post in this thread to your focus levels thread in the FAQ forum because for someone unfamiliar with these models it can be confusing reading one thread with focuses 1-27 and another with focuses 1-4, just a suggestion.

In MajorTom's "What are the focus levels?" thread in the FAQ forum, there does'nt seem to be anything on focus 2oC, why is that? I managed to find an explanation in Frank's "What is Phasing and how can I do it?" however.

Also I think "energy raising" would only distract and hinder your efforts.
