This young man came up with some very good ideas about you as did everyone else in the room. It is only for you now to see and to hear. The world is not as tumultuous as you imagine it to be, and you can hold your own within it. You can, indeed. You can clear your own ears and your own vision. All you have to do is realize that within yourself is the ability to face each life, each day as a life, as you come to it. You are trying too hard now. You must relax and trust the inner self to see and to hear.
The early problems that helped trigger your difficulty you can now, as an adult, overcome these by realizing that the inner self has its own knowledge and its own ways. You can hear me, and I will see to it that you do. Imagine yourself answering questions that have been put to you. You need not imagine that you are hearing clearly. If you imagine that you are answering the questions, then it will be taken for granted that you have heard them correctly. When you try too hard to hear or see, you hear and see less. Relax and let this be taken care of for you. Now you do not trust the inner self to do these things, and you must learn to accept the inner ancient wisdom that is your own.

This is a method of learning, and as you learn you will solve the problem.

(Very loudly) As you sense the energy within this voice grab a hold of it, use it for your own purposes. Realize that as it flows through this figure so indeed can it flow through your own. And it does. You do not need to translate it into sound. Translate it into health and vitality and laughter. Use it as you will but realize it is your own, and that within you there is a source of such vitality and strength. Realize also that physical existence is good. It is blessed.
