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.

([Gert:] “Would you help me with one thing, please? I have been trying to workout something with my oldest daughter. I don’t know what, but I feel there is something there that should be worked out, so I gave myself the suggestion for a dream concerning this, and I got one which dealt with my older brother Tommy. In it I was telling him to sit down, and I was trying to talk to him, but I couldn’t, but finally I did and what I’m wondering, because I’ve had this three or four times in the dream state, trying to talk. The other times it has happened it scared me, and I tried to call my husband.”)

If you understood and felt the joy within your own being, you would have no need of questions. You would know without words. If you would allow yourselves the freedom to meet, not some great teacher, not to run from teacher to teacher, but if you could meet the vitality within one cell, even one molecule of your body, you would have no need for questions.

(To Giovanni) Now I have a brief word that I would like to say to this one over here. Now first of all you are not afraid of psychic reality in any sense of the word. You are, however, worried about the nature of your own reality and worried about how far you want to follow into the nature of your own feelings. You are intrigued, therefore, but held back. There is nothing wrong with that. It is a stage of becoming. Accept it and do not think necessarily that you must be otherwise, for if you go along with the feelings that you honestly have at any given time, they will become the feelings. If, however, you try to hide them from yourself, then they become like knots that bind you.

So admit to yourself both your fascination with the nature of reality, and your own search. And admit also those misgivings that you have and that rise to the surface of your mind for even those can lead you somewhere. Do not feel inferior because it seems to you that this one (Nadine) is going further or quicker or faster. You each will go your own way. And you can hold your own.

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.

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.

No one can order you to feel joy. You cannot order yourselves to feel joy. It requires freedom. You can release yourselves to the sensation of joy and then follow it. I saw the yawn, and in the yawn there is joy. The yawn is a spontaneous expression of the body and within that there is joy.
