That probable self can become a whole entity if it so chooses. Now some selves do not choose to become entities.

Up to the probable selves for each portion of consciousness has available to it whatever potentials it is willing to seek, and there are no limitations placed upon it either by those who created it or by itself.

([Nadine.) “Would it be possible, like, to have a husband and wife that were, when they were gotten together, you would have a great person with opposite personalities, could they possibly be two probable selves?”)

Now within your reality, as you think of it and as you understand it, the population at any given time is seeded by certain particular entities. In your reality, as you think of it then, you are all closely connected much more closely than you realize. You are working toward certain kinds of development that can happen, in your terms and in your terms only, only in your space and in your time. If you understood me, you would realize then that you are highly unique, and that those problems and challenges that you have can be met by no others, and that those private elements of your personal life that seem so uncosmic are, indeed, of great importance. Not only to you, but to other realities that you do not presently understand, and that in working out one simple challenge in this existence you work out other challenges for other selves in other realities. And you help untold numbers of personalities in other realities.

(To Florence.) Now last week when Ruburt was speaking about the natives who are such expert dreamers, you asked, our Lady of Florence, then why are they not more progressive? And yet I know that you realize that your own progress as a civilization, in your terms, will come to a halt unless you progress in other directions. This is what your civilization is learning. That you cannot rape your planet. And life did not begin as some isolated single organism that in the great probabilities of existence meant another, and then another, and then another, until a chain of molecules could be made and selves formed. Neither does consciousness exist, using an analogy, as simple organisms separated by vast distances, but as a complicated gestalt.

You have only to let your fears go to discover that you are hardly alone, and that any aloneness that you feel is an illusion cast by your own mind even as the seeming divisions in time are illusions cast by your own mind. Your inner selves deny the seeming illusion for in dreams you are reunited with yourselves, and as you listen to me speak you are reunited with yourselves if you only probe within my words and feel the reality that they invoke within you.

My words, as I speak, operate in many ways. As sounds alone in your reality that have an impression upon you. As the meaning for the words, that meanings that you understand, as the electromagnetic realities that speed out from Ruburt’s lips, and all of these things you register and understand. You have only to consciously acknowledge them and to open yourselves. I know, for example, your great identity with all the other selves, in your terms, that you have been and will be and know that your feeling of isolation is an illusion and yet, you (Valerie) must know it. And so I know that each of you have your own inroad, both into concepts and experience. On the one hand, I know that you are traveling these inroads, even as I know that as I speak some of you understand me and use my words simply as maps to lead you to undiscovered lands, and others hear merely the words. For those of you who hear only the words I am sorry.
