A.M.

^[1]

Lea [Leah Hirsig] back from Palermo yesterday tells news about A.C. at Moderne? We try an experiment, she heroin, I opium.

I get that A.C. did a worthwhile poem—a wish phantasy? And succeeded in smashing the vodka bottle. O for a picture of Lea’s face when I told her!

Try vision, nothing.

10:20-40

Asana, Nix

10:40-11:0

Dharana

Now think opium affects the delicate centres on which I have been working.

5’ Pranayama.

P.M.

Letters to M. K. W. [Mary K. Wolfe], English Tea Room, Consul in Tunis.

15’ Marbas. Nothing

Can’t visualize Talisman.

8:07-25

Asana

Part of me most conscious seemed to be on top of a crag reaching into the heavens. Equilibrating.

8:25-45

Dharana. Disk

The lines on the disk are coming into play. The two straight across, for the last 3 or 4 days; this evening those joining centre from above. Steadying the mind and keeping it without a break.

8:45-9:05

Harpocrates.

Did something here with left lobe.

^[3]

By far the greater part of my past work has been with left lobe. Freud has something to say about this.

20’ Pranayama, 10:20
