Now development is a journey within creativity. You have at your command literally infinite amounts of energy. In your terms you are, if you prefer, latent Gods. You must learn to handle and use this energy. As mentioned earlier this evening, you will create. You cannot help creating now, anymore than you can help breathing and when you breathe no longer you still create. You cannot escape your own creations. It is not death any of you have to worry about. It is your own creations and you cannot blame your own creations upon any God or any fact or any predestination. If you want to speak in terms of God, then from that infinite gestalt you receive the energy to create, but because you have free will, you create what you choose and you learn through experience.

([Kyle:] “Then we choose our lows and our lows are necessary?”)

You form or create your lows. Sometimes you choose them for purposes of growth. Other times, they are the results of your own ignorance at any given point and basically unnecessary. If you are in the habit, for example, of deep negative thought then you will attract to yourself negative feelings and experience deep depression. Now, if you learn from these, then from your standpoint, this is a point of growth and you progress. But many people do not learn for some time, in your terms, and continue in such periods when they are not necessary.

I do it for several reasons because that is the way I am, in the guise that I choose to use in my communication and also to get everyone over the idea that so-called spirits must be sweet-faced, quiet, sober and dignified. That, for example, is one of my main concerns. I also want you to understand that energy is being used and that energy is available and that the same energy that Ruburt uses is available to each of you but beyond that...

Now you stand, or you sit, in the middle of forces that are a part of you. These are not alien forces of which we speak, these are not things that happen to you. They are forces that emanate from your own being and you can, to some extent, become aware of them. The methods have been given, not only by me, but by others through the centuries. You are not nearly as lonely within yourselves as you suppose that you are. You have only shut out the other messages that come to you all the time. You are not divided from your fellow man unless you choose to be.

You can follow any road that you choose, but until each individual realizes that he practically forms his own personal life, and has a part in the mass formation of reality that you know it, then there is much learning ahead for this is a lesson you are meant to learn within physical reality.
