ESP CLASS SESSION, NOVEMBER 23, 1971
TUESDAY
(Class had been discussing dream realities, personality, etc., for about an hour; Gert and Sheila began talking back and forth on Sheila’s ideas on separate personalities, when Jane interrupted to say that she had one impression that the “hole in the universe” had opened up in Sam Levine’s house and a crowd of people were flying from it into the room. She added that she thought their teacher was standing at the table by the windows. We went into Alpha to see what we could get most of us had that impression of others in the room and Jane got the words to a chant, which she wrote down.

(Sumari:) It is with this always we begin, and we begin our classes. It is with this chant always that we begin our endeavors in our space. It is not your own, and only a translation, for we do not use verbal communication. It is always with the facsimile of what we have heard that we begin our work, and in many guises and in many ways you are acquainted with our activities. We have always been here, in your terms, as you have always been in other places and other times, and there is a great familiarity and wonder on our part that you are still involved in these endeavors which were begun in your terms so many centuries ago, and in ways that you cannot now presently comprehend. And yet you are even familiar with what comes out as what appears as my voice in your own traits and your own translations. There are cities that we have built that you have helped us build. There are wonders here, wonders in your own reality, that we helped build in other ages in your time. We have been here many times, and you have been where we are.

(Much later and softly.) It is the name of your family. It has always been the name of your family, and there are many families. I am telling you your family name, and you are learning of your heritage. I am Sumari. You are Sumari. Thank you for coming to our class.
