However, it must be understood that this Practice or ultimate Realization of the conscious process is not a matter of remaining fixed in the conscious or merely left-brained mind of the waking state. It is a matter of Realizing the Transcendental Condition of Consciousness, Free Being, or Self-Radiant Happiness--what is called "Turiya," or the "fourth state," in the Hindu tradition. Therefore, the ultimate Realization of the conscious process requires, as a matter of real preparation, the liberation of attention from the self contraction (or ego-bond), and thus the liberation of attention (or functional consciousness), from bondage to the limiting structures of the three common states--waking, dreaming, and sleeping.

For this reason, the practical discipline of the Way that I Teach involves not only a sequence of preparatory disciplines or phases of the conscious process (finally epitomized in the Realization of the Practice as described above), but also a culture of associated secondary or supportive disciplines, all of which may be regarded to be forms of the general practice I call "conductivity.".....
