Now you must admit that I have set you some example. I laugh more than you do. It is true I have not cried, but if things continue as they are, I may be about to, for I want your entire self here and expressive. Now you show somewhat more of yourselves in class than you do in your usual life situations. Some one percent more. But to come truly alive, and to come truly alive in this room, you must show far more. It ill behooves me to have to tell you that it takes someone as long dead as I have been to tell you how to become truly alive.

You knew him in a past life in Germany, and you have all been males and females so it is quite easily for you to relate in either direction. Your cultural background specifies, however, certain directions that you follow.

([Ned:] “Was there some connection between us in a past life that I have this feeling?”)

Now there are endless possibilities of development in this life and you utilize only few of them. In other existences other possibilities are utilized. Now you have made inroads tonight. Some of you more than others, but it is a beginning.

It has to do simply with the fact that you related as a male rather than as a female for some time because of past-life experiences. Now this is not necessarily the case, but it is the case in your particular position.
