As old friends occasionally meet at the marketplace, so old friends have a habit of meeting here. After some period of silence I say good evening to you all.
I am pleased that you have some good reading material for a change. We will have to see what can be done so that the practice can be continued. I am very pleased with your progress, and if I do not come through with a voice as light as a butterfly, that does not mean that I am a lightweight. I sit in on all your sessions and I am deeply amused at times, but always pleased. I have come to let you know simply that I have not deserted you. My friend here (Rachel) thought perhaps that I would be silent, but I cannot for long remain silent. It is simply that you must do your studying. You must concentrate and learn and I will not distract you.
It is springtime here and I hope that all your hearts are fluttering. I would give you if I could some idea to let you know that your problems are fleeting, but I can only tell you this. The feeling I cannot give you. That must be your own.
Your friend (Anne H., speaking to Florence) is doing well and you should not worry. I was also here last week and I am always in this room. It is very important that you read and study the material and that you not be satisfied by superficial answers and that you question, for by questioning you will learn.

I come here from a long way, but not too much is lost in the transition. There is joy also in the universe besides your problems, and the joy is paramount. Because I am the source of material I tell you: study it. There are many answers in the material that will solve or help you solve many problems that seem so difficult, but you must solve your own problems. For solving them is a challenge and helps your own development.

Now, I speak jokingly to you, telling you that I am the origin of the material, and therefore you must listen to it and study it. The fact remains that I am also a channel through which this information comes to you. And as yet you have little idea of its significance and meaning, not only to you personally. It makes little difference that I transmit it and that Ruburt receives it. The material itself, however, is the important issue here. I receive it and interpret it from our sources, as I have told my friends. Ruburt has always been cautious here, for when I tell him of the significance of the material, then he wonders about the aspect of his own personality. But I tell you and I tell you frankly that the personality by which I show myself to you is but a small aspect of my whole personality. And that personality is not cold. You simply do not understand it, therefore I come to you in terms that you can understand, and these characteristics of mine that seem so cozy are to some extent devious. They are my characteristics as I am, but also as I was. For I am no longer what I was.
What the material tells you about the nature of your own reality is the closest you can come now to an approximation of the truth. No one, not even I, can hand you proof on a golden platter. You must understand what it is. Our beloved monster here (the cat) intuitively knows what is involved, and you know intuitively, but we want you to understand consciously.

What you experience as emotion I experience in a sort of mathematical intensity, and translate. The inner senses will help you perceive other dimensions. You will therefore not be as imprisoned within the reality that you consider ultimate. I am here simply at Seth’s request to tell you that the dimension that you know is but a small spot in the all of reality, and also, that your concept of a god is highly distorted by three-dimensional concepts and ideas.
