It is important to grasp that the higher awareness is not just an emotional or mental exercise, leading to mysticism and the inner light of bliss and enlightenment; it is as much a cognitive and energetic exercise using the higher order sciences to get to the point, where the human psyche and mind can utilize the purified and adapted energies to fuel the higher order networks of the brain.

The new structural layers, working with different forms of energy, are constructed through the processes of our psychic-energetic work. Both the processes and the new neural networks are needed to process all higher dimensional information. Without the higher order structural layers, the brain only operates within the known frequency spectrum and within the limited brain wave information networks. As we learn to work with the higher order energies, our eyes develop new abilities and then much more of our reality can be seen, as it appears in another dimensional energies.

You are now moving into the work with the higher-order senses — the ways in which perception can extend beyond the ordinary five senses we are familiar with. There are many different ways of describing and interpreting these capacities, and you will come across different ideas about what higher-order senses are, what they can do, and how they may be experienced. Within HAL, we are interested in exploring these possibilities without needing to reduce them to one fixed explanation.

At a simple level, we can think of the higher-order senses as an expanded, higher-dimensional version of the five senses. Sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell are already ways in which we receive information from our environment. The question here is what happens when perception is able to work with information that does not necessarily arrive through these ordinary sensory channels. This can include subtle information, changes in the surrounding field, patterns that are not immediately visible, or forms of perception that may initially be difficult to describe in ordinary language. Some experiences may be very clear, while others may be much more subtle and take time to recognize and distinguish.

The purpose of this work is not to convince yourself that you are experiencing something that you are not. It is also not about trying to produce unusual experiences simply because they are expected. Instead, it is about becoming more attentive to the different ways information may be perceived and learning to distinguish your own experiences with greater clarity. As with the rest of the HAL material, give yourself time. You may find that some aspects make sense immediately, while others become clearer only through practice and repeated exploration. Your own experience is an important part of the learning process.

The higher-order senses are therefore not simply another subject to learn about. They form part of the wider development of perception and awareness that we begin to explore at this stage of the HAL work.

As you work through the material, pay attention to what you notice in yourself. You may recognize certain patterns immediately, while other things may only become apparent after you have worked with the material for a while. There is no need to force anything or try to produce a particular experience.

I recommend keeping a notebook alongside the material. Write down what you notice during the exercises and contemplation, as well as anything that comes up afterwards. You might notice a memory, a reaction, a recurring thought, or simply a feeling that you cannot quite explain yet. All of these can be useful to come back to. You can then reread the material and compare it with what you are beginning to notice in your own experience. This is where the material becomes more than information. You are starting to observe your own patterns from a different position and becoming more familiar with your inner landscape.

Take your time with the material. The purpose is not to get through it quickly, but to establish a deeper contemplation and inner work practice and begin developing the awareness needed for the work that follows. Once you have worked through the material and spent some time practicing, you can return to the podcasts and text again. You may find that the material looks different the second time around because you are no longer approaching it only as something you are reading about. You have begun to experience it for yourself.

The work to regain the higher-order senses must be done by the individual as a willed choice. It is not something that occurs in all humans, once the original systemic construction becomes part of our reality again. It is this way, because the higher order faculties must be reached for and trained to become part of the current organic vessel.

The higher-order senses follow the higher-order energies, just like our lower-order senses were developed to work with electromagnetic energies. We can work with all versions of energy, low and high, if we develop and practice the higher-order senses to detect, process and understand them.

The higher-order senses are the higher order energy expression of the human senses. They are used within the higher order realities, when we expand our perception field into the other-dimensional levels of our reality. Here they provide higher-order perception and information processing on the different segments of the dimensions.
