And if I solved them for you, then you would go about your way, but you would have no faith in your own abilities and you would have learned nothing.

Now. What I am trying to do is to awaken within each of you knowledge, intuition, abilities that are a portion of your entire personality. Now, once these are awakened, you can use them and they become a part of the physical self that you know. They become real to you. These abilities will help you solve other problems. You are being changed in this class and through your own experiences in that you are learning and you are expanding your idea of reality and of consciousness. Each small advance quickens other advances within you and each knowledge leads to other knowledge. Sometimes you are on a plateau and then you climb from the plateau to new awareness. Sometimes your greatest moments of understanding come to you in the dream state. Then, in the morning, it seems to you that they are fresh and new for you do not recall their origin.

Now. If you realize that you create your physical reality through your own thoughts and desires, then you have learned the most important aspects of reality. This is what you have been setting out to do in your other lives, in your past existences. The realization of these truths nullifies any so-called debts from other lives. When you realize this and act upon it, there is no reason for you to come back here again unless you want to. Any of your difficulties in past lives were caused because you did not realize these basic truths. Your reincarnational pasts can help you if you know of them—only if they make these truths evident to you, only if you learn from them. Otherwise, they exist within you subconsciously and unconsciously in any case.

The whole self is involved not only in this reality but in other realities. The whole self sends a portion of itself into various realities. These portions of the whole self are to learn to materialize as best they can the strength and energy as they know it in whatever camouflage they find themselves. The whole self gives you, therefore, a responsibility—and it leaves it mainly up to you.
