"Yes, I would think that ifyou were imagining, you would have more control 0 over it and be able to mold it into what you wanted to oe re ne ee a er] see, like when you were having a daydream." Itwas obvious from his description that he was certain this infor- mation was not coming from his own imagination but from some- where else, a somewhere that he did not have control over. He also said that when he was shown ascene, there was a great deal more in it than he could relate to me, a vast amount ofdetail that he did not tell me about. He felt he could only answer my questions literally. He often wanted to volunteer information about what he was seeing, but ifI did not ask the proper question, the answers would not come forth. I believe this also shows that his imagination is not at work or he would want to embellish and embroider everything he told me. This proved to me something that I have known for a long time: that the entire process rests on the questioner. The right question must be asked to obtain the right answer, and thus the type of questions which are asked become extremelyimportant In the case ofregres- sive hypnotic research, questioning becomes an art. I also suspected one reason Phil behaved differently from any other subject I had worked with to this point was because he was a different type of soul energy, one from the stars and other dimen- sions and not primarily of this earth. Maybe this was one reason he would notallow his conscious mind to become detached completely. Each session was allowing the other energy to become stronger and more memories were being awakened, both to his surprise and mine. Phil was also becoming more intuitive and psychic in his every- day life. I don't know how longwe would have gone along getting the type of otherworldly information in the past chapters, but again, something unusual happened. My friend, Harriet, a fellow hypnotist who had worked with me on several occasions in my regression work, was present during this session. I was always aware that her energy somehow added the sig- nificant "something" that was missing. Good and strange things have always happened when she attends a session. She is like a battery, supplying extra energy for both me and the subject to draw upon. As the session began, the additional "something" that her pres- ence contributes worked well. Maybe alittle too well, for the extra boost caused Phil to break through to a very emotional scene. As the elevator door opened, he saw three towers or spires. He described them as tall, smooth-sided and pointed, standing side by side. They 90 The Keepers ofthe Garden
