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.

Not at this time. I will, however, later.

([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.”)

(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.

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.

I bid you then a fond good evening, and I wish you this time an active joy.
