(To Ned.) I was in your last experience as a probable self of my own and you did not recognize me, but that is all right and I will not hold it against you.

(To Sue after stating she had a headache.) You are simply upset over the implications of the probable selves and that caused the headache. Tell yourself that you are doing well in the reality, that you are using your abilities, that you are helping your husband use his and that you have brought to birth an individual who will use his very well. You do not need to feel guilty of the creation of any probable selves. They come into reality with problems, but all of you come into reality with challenges that you have set ahead of time, in your terms. You have given them the gift of existence, they will learn how to use it and develop their own abilities in their own way, for you have also given them individuality which means they are not yourselves, but variations on yourselves. They have many facets of reality and fulfill them often.

Many personalities do, but when you came into this existence, you came into it with problems and challenges you gave yourself and these probable selves exist in the same manner. You have given them a foundation and a history and an identity as a framework, but from this framework they will grow and learn and develop and without your creation of them they would not exist. Would you, therefore, deny them reality in order to deny them pain? Then the headache can vanish.

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.

He was a probable self of your grandfather’s and he kept in touch with you, and you were able to see him because of your own abilities. He noticed you, even as you noticed him, and in his probability he wondered who you were, but he liked you. He was a portion of your grandfather that your grandfather as you know him, could not be, and in many ways he was much freer than your grandfather. Now, he had a hobby and he made small dolls. These were dolls made of wood and into them he projected all of his creative energy, and he made a doll that looked like you, and he called it Susan without ever knowing where he got the name. He did not know it was your name, nor who you were. He lived in Germany in his reality. He was born in his reality in 1831 and died in 1897. But you were able to see him. In out-of-body states, he projected into your reality. We will give you more information on it as we are able to.

([Gert:] “Jane says I am quite guilt-ridden. My question is, as I am able to find out what I am guilty about and I find that guilt, do I then project that into another probable self?”)
