Now as Ruburt said earlier, he (Martin) is a good man and besides that I like him. Now he may not approve of Ruburt’s habits, but then Ruburt does not approve of his, and that is between he and Ruburt. As you are all used to saying, you must do your own thing in your own way. There are distortions in his thought as there are distortions in all of your thoughts. He thinks of vitality in different ways than you do, but he uses it very well. Now when the myths speak, they speak with many voices. You must indeed look beneath them, and you must learn to listen to the inner voice within that is not fooled by any myths. Now the vitality that is within him is expressed in a different way than you express your own and the terms attached to it. And the tales that go along with it are different than your own. But the true reality cannot be put into words. Neither words within your brain, within your mind; for the voice itself and language itself is bound to be distorted. The words are merely symbols for the reality. You need the words in your state of being but only each of you in your own way can search for the reality that has no need of words. The reality that needs no sound. And when the speakers speak to each of you in the dream state and in your private hours then they do not need words. You translate what they say into words, but the inner knowledge within you exists long before any alphabet was ever known. The inner knowledge within you existed before the nervous system existed, before there was a brain capable of learning language. And so let the inner energy and vitality then rise up and express itself. And open up those doors of energy. Do not close them down. All of the myths should float away, and all the debris. A man’s myths are like his clothing they are his own affair. Beneath the clothing is the person and the reality. And now I will let you take your break. A Seth break and a class break.
(After break.) All right now, the experiment that began some time ago is still in operation and the visitors that come here do not come here by chance alone.

Outward from your skulls, therefore, into a dimension that has no space or time, in your terms. See this pyramid extending, and whatever you find within it meet freely and with confidence. If there are rooms, then pursue them. If you see a particular person then speak or make yourself known. If you find another group of people, then relate to them in whatever way seems natural. If instead the distance seems immeasurable and the way long, then follow it. Now you are seated physically in a particular room upon an autumn night and yet these pyramids extend where seasons are not known and where autumn nights are not known and you are traveling on paths between dimensions. Therefore free your perceptions while you have the opportunity and use your consciousness naturally in the way that it is meant for you to use it, freely and with confidence and joy. Be assured of your own vitality and your own confidence to deal with all situations. Let my voice then serve even to form a portion of the pyramid so that you have even greater feelings of support. Whatever scenes come, follow them. Whatever thoughts come, follow them. Whatever rooms open, explore them. Whatever sensations you have, accept them joyfully and with confidence. Learn to use the mobility of your own consciousness joyfully and follow even further into the pyramid and into, indeed, the light of consciousness and understanding, for it reaches as a pathway between those dimensions, and it is indeed a channel between those dimensions, and it is indeed a channel between your world and other worlds that also exist. I want you then to draw energy and power from the voice and use it in your own way. Let it become whatever you want it to become and whatever you need it to become in this particular time, in this particular place in this particular probability system in which you find yourself. And if you find another self, then greet it. And if you see another face, then give a look of recognition. And if you find another brush past you then wish it well. And if you find worlds that you do not understand, then look upon them with wonder, but send your consciousness as far as it can go with great vigor, with freedom and joy. Let it go where it wants to go and travel those pathways that are native to it, that are as native to it as breath is to your physical body. Let yourself then be flooded with comprehension and with knowledge and let all those intuitive connections be made that need to be made. Let other probable selves help you as indeed you aid them. And let the self that you know realize its potential and part of All That Is. And now for the last spurt let your consciousness go still further so that you know you are sending it as far as you can, that you are using it clearly and with vigor.

I bid you all a fond good evening and prepare to be adventurous this week. You have the tendency to rest after you have been doing well for a time, but the period of rest is over. Now your periods do not always match. Our Cousin over here, for example, has had a rather active week.

Now I bid you all a fond good evening, and those blessings that I have to give I give you, and those blessings that I do not have to give you you know where you will have to ask for them. And if you are looking for vitality, look to the inner self and you will find it. And learn to accelerate your own thoughts.
