And when I do ask the questions, and I shall ask them, I shall expect some ready answers. When you immerse yourselves completely in physical reality, then you have no time for the inner voice.

It is your loss. Now, there is a way—when you are involved in physical activity, and even intense mental work—to change the inner focus so that you are aware of two realities at once and can manipulate quite easily in the physical reality as you must. Now, you ask your Bega—for I have told him the message and I have told him to tell you. We shall see how good he is. And I want to know what he tells you for I want to see how he is delivering my suggestions.

Now. You must realize that within this room, and within any room, at any time there are other personalities that you do not perceive. There are ways of perceiving them if they choose to be perceived. Possibly, with some help from certain directions, we shall see what we can do in other classes. And our friend Ruburt is quite correct, you (Brad) learn the nature of the inner self first—and then we shall help you in the development of your own abilities. And before too long, we will have a message for you to take to heart.

Now. We will try to have a session for you (Brad), our friend Brad the Bull, shortly—and clear up some of your difficulties—for some of them are because you are bull-headed. You will not let the inner self speak clearly enough to you—so we will give it the voice that you can hear... and you will know when we have the session, you—will intuitively realize, that what we say is true—and there is no need to fight what you are fighting—and the secret that you try so hard to hide from your conscious mind is not that terrible a secret. There is some past life that operated in your case that has caused a block, and we hope that we can help you remove it. Bulls can rip down fences.

Bega has had many lives—do not limit yourself in your thinking—do not limit yourself in your feelings—and do not retreat in the summertime from your inner self.

Now. There has been energy present in this room, and strong energy, this evening. But you have not been serious enough about using it, nor have you been playful enough to use it without serious note. You may use it in two ways, you see. You may play with it and use it marvelously—or you may use it seriously—but in between you will not use it at all, for you cannot harness it. And in your own daily activities, in your playful moments, you can almost achieve the freedoms that the inner self knows. And in your most serious moments, you can almost achieve the freedom that the inner self knows. But in your mundane moments, you will not achieve it. And when you half try, you will not achieve it.

([Seth II:]) And that self tells you that there is a reality beyond human reality, beyond human characteristics that you know—and within that reality even I am dwarfed and there is knowledge that can never be verbal. And there is experience that cannot be translated in human terms. Although this type of existence seems cold to you, it is a clear and crystal-like existence in which things are known that are beyond your comprehension, in which no time is needed, in your terms, for experience; in which the inner self condenses all human knowledge that has been received by you through your various existences and reincarnations has been coded and exists indelibly.
