Now, it is extreme egotism to imagine that you can only be alive if you have a body. You are indeed being closed-minded. The voice that I can use on occasion could shatter the small image through which I speak and the spirit that belongs to your parents could not be contained in one bodily form or two. The spirit of your parents is, of course, free. You are free even while you are in the flesh, and I have nothing against the flesh. I have had some time with it through past lives, and found it very handy, indeed, so I am not prejudiced. You are caught up in conventional ideas of this. It is this that frightens you in your dreams. The spirits of your parents are free. Allow them their freedom and speak kindly to them. You would frighten the ghosts away with your own fear. If you had to go through all that they had to go through to contact a beloved daughter, how would you feel if you were met with fear and terror?

All existence is vulnerable for vulnerability is the framework and the sensitivity that makes existence possible. All That Is is vulnerable to All That Is and the possibilities and probabilities of creation that dwell deeply within it. To close anyone off, any channel off, is to deny creativity and existence. The deep mystery of consciousness has to do with vulnerability. If the leaf were not vulnerable to the sun, it would not bloom. If it were not vulnerable to the winter and cold temperature, it would not die, and if it did not die, it could not, again, come back into the earth as a new blossom. It could not change its form. Therefore, each of you be free within yourselves and be without fear.

I will close our session. However, each of you are here because you realize you are shadows of your own true selves. You want to bring into physical actuality the true selves that you know are yours and as long as you have this desire, the desire will find a means to completion. It is only when you lose the desire that you are in deep trouble. There is no reason why, following the material and following your own individual ways, you cannot step out of the shadows of yourselves and become the inner selves that you know that you are. And this is what I expect of each of you, and this is what each of you expect of yourselves. Now, if you have any serious questions, I will answer them.
