The answer is so simple that you will not admit it to yourself. You do not want to remember. You can tell yourself that you do, but until you really want to remember, you will not.

You create times and places. They are tools by which you learn to know yourselves. They are methods that you use as a part of all consciousness to form new experiences and new developments. You all dwell in dimensions that know no place and no time, and so Ruburt is correct for when you ask me of places and times I answer you in terms of places and times, and when you know enough to ask me questions that do not have to do with places and times then you will understand more of your own identity, the nature of your existence and the abilities that are inherent within you.

There is a point I want to make, however. Now in my book, my own book, there are two chapters in particular. One is called “Death Conditions in Life”’ and in it I make several points that will somewhat answer your questions. First of all, when you sleep, in your terms, you are as dead as you will ever be. You are operating in out-of-body conditions. You are experiencing other dimensions of reality. You are quite as busy as you are in your daily life but because you do not remember in the morning, it seems to you that you are largely unconscious. In this state, therefore, you are learning. You have every opportunity to study, to look upon your past lives, in your terms, and benefit from them.

(To Theodore.) And I expect over here, for our Dean, a return to the Great Hall and there you should receive your own answer to the question that you asked earlier, but if for any reason you do not, then I will answer it for you. I am interested in helping you develop your own abilities—therefore, I answer those questions that I think you will not be able to answer for yourselves for a while and those answers that you will receive yourselves I leave open. I like to make you work, it is good for you.

Now I have a PS. (To Rachel.) The answer in regard to your pussycat must come to you intuitively and it is available. It will be given to you in the dream state and again in the morning if you remember. I can give you the information but it is better that you receive it on your own. The consciousness that was the cat is far freer now than it was. It has embarked upon new and higher organizations and is aware of greater abilities.
