Now, there is no reason why truth should not be joyful, there is no reason why truth cannot play tricks, even with noses. And note to our friend, Ruburt—there is no reason why truth must necessarily be given in high intellectual tones.

And I have given material that is highly intuitional that will be understood and used by people who know how to use their intuitions. Truth does not follow a single line.

When I am jovial and when you know me as I am, realize that I have been what I am for a long time—with alterations and changes and developments. And that as you sit here before me, you are far more than you know. And if it seems to you that I have said this on endless other occasions, indeed I have. When I say it and repeat it, I say it and repeat it for a reason. It is so that you will know that vitality is joyful, and that personality has eternal validity and that changes continue. And that as you challenge me, so shall you be challenged.
And now I shall leave you on tippy-toe. Vitality such as this knows no barriers, no deaths, and no endings. Only beginnings, and beginnings are joyful. Creativity is ever new. Now I bid you a fond good evening—and rejoice!
