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.

In the meantime, trust your sense and your feelings. Listen to what your body wants to do. Listen to what your mind and your feelings want to do. Do not look to whoever is speaking for directions, but follow through. If you do not feel like doing what seems to be suggested, do not do it. If you feel, however, as if you would like to do it, but do not have the guts to do it, then trust yourself and go ahead. If instructions seem to be given, follow them if you want to. If you feel like standing and looking out the window and turning your back to the whole thing, then do it, but at least know what your feelings are.
