Now I call an end to break. I do not want our friend here (Martin Crocker) to feel as he feels that he is cramping your style. Now I have one remark. There is an incident in your life, and it did indeed have to do with the use of inner perception. It was not therefore an ordinary event in usual terms. There was also another person connected with the affair who telepathically knew what was going on, and in his own way helped bring about the events and communicated them to you.
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.

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.
