The second level of meaning was not easy to discern because of the form in which it came, a gradual change in my mind/body/thought that altered everything subtly. The 'second level meaning' emerged gradually as the effect of a mechanism of mind that 'repeated back' certain specific content, abstracted out of embeddedness in every day life events. A process of 'abstraction' is what I hope to explain.  The word 'abstraction' describes the process of finding and lifting out of embeddedness the information relevant to the idea, which was itself abstracted from embeddedness in two books I read when I was a young woman, The Bridge Of San Luis Rey by Thornton Wilder from which an idea that there is a 'secret about the insane, just around the corner, just out of sight', and Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke from which a fragment was abstracted and joined by my own mind, without any direction from the person I was then, to form it's own sentence. I watched the process, from a very great distance.

This paragraph is a good example of how the process operated. It been abstracted  from "War In Heaven" by Charles Williams which is a  fictional book. It came to me fairly recently, I'll quote it (I do this several times)  to make a point a point about a function of mind that can be thought about as  a kind of mental highlighter.   Read the paragraph through ignoring the underlined words. Then read only the underlined words that have been abstracted out.

"When Mr. Batesby had spoken that morning it had seemed as if two streams of things, actual events and his own meditations had flowed gently together; as if not he but Life were solving the problem in the natural process of the world. He reminded himself now that such a simplicity was unlikely; explanations did not lucidly arise from mere accidents and present themselves as all but an ordered whole." 

It's a discovery that took a long time, learning there was an  the intended meaning from this kind of event,, when it was abstracted out and heightened by some mysterious activity that one does not suspect or expect  or have words to explain even to one's self.

 The content of the 'reflection' was turned around and an attribute of 'self reference' was added to it but this also was not an easy attribute to discern. It became quite evident one day that this attribute caused the re-generated content to seem to be 'spoken' to me as a person would speak to me. The re-occurring of content happened in a flash of time, in a united batch without space between the words so to speak. The 'rehearing' of this 'unit' caused that content, whether it was something I read or had thought about, to seem spoken to me as another person would speak to me.  This is what I mean when I write that an attribute of self reference, turned towards me, content that would not have otherwise had any special significance. The 'voice effect' was created by  adding 'self reference' although this is a very simplistic way to describe a very complex continuum of a pattern and a process.

This effect was not easy  to notice and find a name that fit, but the correct word came to me through a string of events that led (over a period of about 4 years) to that one word: echo. The reflected content seemed to be there for some months before I was certain it was happening  automatically all the time at that point. It became  distinct  one day in 1987 as best I can date it and afterwards I was able to separate the 'reflection' and even name it myself as 'second under-lying contexts. The period of about 2 years after July 31 through August 11, 1984 was nearly overwhelmingly confusing for me until that point in Time.

One day I was physically doing something that generated 'thought' where I could  see the 'reflected content' of that thought  and I heard it as though the words were spoken to me. The words in this thought had occurred as a result of what I was physically, and the 're-generated' thought packet was very clear. That content actually described what I was doing in both worlds, the physical world and the Larger Domain. That was my name for it after I was certain it really exists. I had walked onto a metal grid floor over a lighted room  directly below it for the first time. After a few steps I  became disoriented because the metal grids of the floor seemed to have disappeared. "It's just like standing on an invisible floor. I can see what's going on around me but I can see what's going on below me too." That thought clearly repeated in a flash as a 'unit, a batch' with no space between the words. But this 'unit' was turned around and not 'about' something but was spoken to me as though by a person. This was distinctly evident for the first time in this incident although this 're-occurrence' had seemed to be there for several months. I had been puzzled by many changes in my thought, but I couldn't talk about those changes.

 The idea of 'recurrence' was an attribute of a book I'd been reading, The Fourth Way by P. D. Ouspensky but his idea was quite different than the mere recurrence of episodes of thought.
