Now, as Ruburt mentioned earlier, we have some strong elements present. You can, indeed, be involved in some group out-of-body endeavors. Now all of you can be involved to some degree or another but you must want to be involved. You must desire the experience or you will not have it. It does no good to tell yourselves that you will leave your body fifty times before you sleep, if in the back of your skull you are thinking, I am terrified. The inner self will put up a caution light. You are not ready.

Creativity cannot exist in the midst of fears that are prohibitive. Fears are restrictive and they hold you back. On the other hand, if you allow yourselves freedom, if you give your inner selves freedom, then, indeed, you can leave your bodies happily, safely and easily. Some of you are ready, and this has nothing to do with the amount of time you have spent in class. It has to do with your sense of inner freedom.

Now we use words because you deal with them. You deal with the words physically but your inner self has no need of verbalization. What each of you experience as you listen to me cannot be expressed in words, and what each of you feel of yourselves when you are alone and when you are with others, cannot be put into words. You know but you cannot find the words.

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.

(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.

(To Laurie.) Now you are playing around in your haunted house. You are trying to see what you can do with psychic energy. That is well and good. You are like children playing with a ball except you have made the ball yourselves and then it will lead you on a merry chase. It is good exercise and healthy play. Just do not frighten yourselves if the ball bounces too high.
