(To Ron.) And this applies even to you who feel that you have so many webs in front of your brain that you cannot possibly see through them, and of course you can, and the webs are there because you want to play with them at this time, and so feel free to do so. It is the viewpoint of reality that you have presently adapted, and as such it is purposely not only valid but important to you. You have adapted it for a reason. From your particular viewpoint at this moment you will learn certain things that you think you could learn in no other way. You are like our friend over here (Phil) nine months ago.

Now I want you to do something if you wish. If you do not wish, then you can sit and observe. Now I want you simply to follow along, to listen to the sounds, to let whatever images come into your mind come. Do not attempt to translate the words that you hear into words that you know. Do not get hung up on semantics. Do not get hung up on personality. In other words, simply accept an experience. Let yourselves go with it, whatever happens. If you feel like setting up barriers, then set up barriers. If you feel like letting barriers go then let them go, but do whatever you feel like doing and whatever you feel like doing, do. If you feel like getting up and standing in front of someone else and relating with them, do it. If you feel like singing, sing. If you see images, enjoy them. If your muscles cramp, then sit and feel them cramp. If you feel like examining what is going on, then examine what is going on. If you feel like joining in with what is going on, then join in. So feel free, in other words, to do whatever you feel like doing. Now give us a moment.
