ESP CLASS SESSION, AUGUST 3, 1971
TUESDAY

Now some of you are ready to meet these other associates. They are people living on the face of the earth at this time. People that you have never met physically and probably will never meet, in those terms, but you are involved often as apprentices in joint endeavors and it is time that you become aware to some extent of your relationship. Those that escape you in the dream state. Therefore, I want you to take particular notice of people in your dreams who are strangers to you. You may encounter them in class dreams. You may also encounter them, however, in dreams that seem to have no great meaning. These people cooperate with you as you cooperate with them. You are involved with many activities. Helping people who have died, in your terms, speaking to others who are quite alive, in the dream state, learning to understand and manipulate subjective realities.

Now this requires some study and means that you will have to remember your dreams much more effectively than some of you are doing. And I am giving you the impetus. When possible think of these persons also when you discover them so that in your daily waking life you can receive some more intuitional information as to the kind of work and endeavors in which you are all involved. We want you to become aware of all of your activities, not simply your conscious ones. You are using abilities in that work that you are not using as yet in your conscious lives, and I want you to become aware of what these abilities are. They can also help you deal much more effectively with physical reality and help you understand it far better. You may find several of you involved in the same work in the dream state. And so, also, keep track of whatever class members may appear within these dreams. Then when you are doing well in class, you will be able to relate not only to some reincarnational selves but to the inner self and to its activities and use these activities to enrich your normal daily encounters and to increase the nature and extent of your perceptions.

Now we are having a Seth break and not a class break.

(During break Margie explained what they were studying in the Cayce class and what they want to attain. Bette asked Buddy if he was using the knowledge he had studied so long for.

As so often happens you are each involved now, not only in this class, but with another. Now you need not close your eyes but if you listen to your own inner voice, and if you allow yourself the freedom, and if you understand the nature of probabilities, then as I speak and as you listen you can indeed, to some extent, perceive the other reality, the specific reality of which I am speaking in which you also exist as a group. And feel to some extent the gathering energy that unites you. The energy unites you here as it unites you there. The indirections of personality occur there as they do here but with some very important differences. There you can move tables easily and well. I would like you to allow yourselves the freedom of feeling that reality. It will add richness to the dimension of your own existence. I would like you to try to sense the similarities and the differences and particularly the differences in your own reaction to other students for there are some important ones. And in one of these classes you have been a member for some time (Margie), so have you (Wally). You have indeed.

Now some of the people also attending that class are the strangers that I spoke to you of, and that you know them well in the dream state. You are all so wise when you are sleeping. The abilities that you show are quite your own, and I would like to see you bring them to the surface and use them but then I am certain that you will do so. I cannot always speak to each of you individually, but I do speak to you individually and you should know what I mean by that sentence.

(To Ron L.) Now in another reality sometime you are really going to be put to the task of explaining to personalities who have no idea of the nature of physical existence, that physical existence does indeed exist. So you had better prepare yourselves with cards or otherwise. Those of you who are not members of the class, forgive us but that is an in joke.

(Sue explained to Jane we should become aware of a probable class.)

Now the members of your so-called probable class are involved, in your terms, at precisely this point with the same experiment. Therefore, of course, they consider this the probable class.

I will bid you all a fond goodnight because our friend, Ruburt, is worried about the time. Also because I have said what I wanted to say, and I hope you heard our friends’ interpretation for it was a good one (Joel) and this was a good one also (Wally). I want you to stop identifying completely with the conscious self that you know, and I want you also to remember that I told you that though physically I may not speak to you individually in class, the messages are given, and I expect you to be expert enough to receive them. So if you feel left out it is only because you have not been aware enough.

Now you are all constrained enough in your waking state so I expect you to show some freedom in your dream state and to appreciate your freedom. Now there will be, as far as our regular class members are concerned, a particular meeting held that you will attend. Not because I say you will attend it, but because you have already decided to attend it, and I would dearly like to see some memory on the part of the conscious selves involved. There will be some probable selves there, and I would like to introduce you to each other. They will be here at class next week and before then I would like you to have some kind of relationship.
