You will learn that you are a part of the webwork of consciousness. You will learn to be conscious cocreators. You will learn, or you will destroy the planet which you now inhabit! And if you do, your consciousness will begin in another reality. You will learn to recognize within yourselves the joy and the true reality of being. You will learn to distinguish between the reality of joy and pseudorealities that you have created, or you will begin again. But you will learn. You are indeed as blessed as any god and as gifted. When you learn to honor yourselves, you will be free. And you will create with joy and spontaneity when you recognize that within the leaf of a flower the consciousness that is within it, and relate it to yourself, and honor it and treat it as a little brother, you will be free.

And I have told you before, there are no accidents! No man is sent accidentally, and innocently, off to war. He who kills must learn what killing is by being the victim. You will learn that you cannot buy peace through violence. You will learn it. You will learn not only that human life is sacred, but that the life within each molecule and atom is sacred.

Now, in your terms, this takes centuries. When you have learned the lesson, it seems as if you have always known it. As I have told you again, and time and time again: Basically there is no such thing as murder, for consciousness continues. But as long as you believe that you kill a man and that you kill him forever, then you must work out that problem. You will learn, you are learning. Some of you will face two generations from now problems that you do not now accept, and you will be the younger generation once more, out with fine, bright and gaudy banners to show your elders and fight for right, and I wish you luck! You will need it.

You must learn what it is like to be male and female, to be parent and child. And you will go through the cycles until you can relate with others. And if you cannot understand them from your own viewpoint, then you will become them. And from their viewpoint you will see yourselves. This is the meaning of learning. You will extend your consciousness, as you know it, from the self that you know outward and relate to others and understand them. Or you will take their positions and from their consciousness observe the selves that no longer exist in your time. But you will learn.

[...] You learn by seeing these turn into physical reality. [...] If so the lesson is doubly learned.

When you leave the physical system after reincarnations, you have learned the lessons, and you are literally no longer a member of the human race in those terms, for you elect to leave it. [...] Therefore the lessons must be taught and learned well.

[...] When you have learned the lesson you realize that the ideals were not necessary, but until you learn the lesson they are all you have as guidelines. [...]

Before you can be allowed into systems of reality that are more extensive and open, you must first learn to handle energy, and see, through physical materializations, the concrete result of thought and emotion. [...]

You were learning what the feel of your own energy was, and each of you must learn it individually for yourselves. You direct it beyond this place and this time, and so it is about time that you learned to recognize it within yourselves and within the others within this room. [...] But before we are finished you will feel the power of your own energy and learn what to do with it. [...] You will have to learn what to do with it. [...]

[...] And you will all learn what true communication is, for you will learn to communicate in various levels of consciousness and you will learn to listen to me in various levels of consciousness, and you will learn to know me in various levels of consciousness so that you can see (feel?)[sic] beneath the words as well as hear the surface of the words. [...]

You can all learn to use this initial state of altered consciousness, and we will be dealing with it often in class, but you will each be dealing with it in your private lives. You will learn to examine it, but more than this you will learn to cherish it as you should cherish all the states of consciousness that you discover in yourselves and in others. [...]

[...] But you will learn to feel your own experience in reality in many other layers of consciousness. And I hope that in class, and alone, you will learn to communicate at various levels of consciousness. And I hope you learn to follow the changes in your own symbolisms that occur in these various stages. [...]

[...] Trust that you will learn what you want to learn as automatically as you once learned to read or speak, or as automatically as you think. [...]

When you first learned to write in school, you had to be taught how to form the letters. [...]

In your realm of reality, mistakes are a part of the learning process. [...]

[...] They cannot be forcibly restrained, for they would learn nothing. What they do learn however is always retained. [...]

They have to learn to handle it constructively. [...] Without it they could not survive long enough to learn anything. [...]

[...] The losers then would become stern teachers, having learned through experience.

[...] Others are returning to it, the system, in an effort to learn more. [...]

[...] And when you learn what you are doing, when you learn what you are doing—then you will learn how to hold the flashlight stationary and still illuminate all these other areas. [...]

[...] You can learn methods that will enable you to tune in on these other channels. [...] They must learn to tune in, but many of them have already learned this knowledge and it is part of their own training. [...]

[...] You do learn the consequences of your thoughts and actions, and you face them. [...] You learn the consequence of your action and you face the consequence of your action. [...]

[...] We want you momentarily to stop using one of your conscious minds and learn how to tune into another one of your conscious minds. [...]

Now: You are learning to be cocreators. You are learning to be gods as you now understand the term. You are learning responsibility — the responsibility of any individualized consciousness. You are learning to handle the energy that is yourself, for creative purposes.

[...] In learning to use these potentials, in learning to rediscover its relationship with the entity, the three-dimensional self raises still further the level of achievement, comprehension, and creativity. [...]

You will be bound to those you love and those you hate, though you will learn to release and lose and dissipate the hatred. You will learn to use even hatred creatively and to turn it to the higher ends, to transform it finally into love. [...]

[...] Pretend that there is an inner world, and that it will be revealed to you as you learn to perceive it with these inner senses.

[...] The self-discipline learned, the control, the compassion that finally is aroused, and the final and last lesson learned, the positive desire for creativity and love over destruction and hatred. When this is learned the reincarnational cycle is finished. [...]

Now there is a reason why these lessons must be learned in just this way. [...] There are different kinds of creativity, then, to learn, and a specialization in energy is focus and feelings that emerge; elemental energy becoming conscious of itself, and aware of issues that did not exist for it earlier; millions of molecules momentarily united with the living consciousness (pause), filled with primal energy, now learning love, and forming highly sensitive psychic patterns, electrical charges that now form emotions instead of clouds; the innocent chaos of undifferentiated personality that exists behind the highly specified and truly sophisticated mechanism of one thought. [...]

[...] The fact is that they can never be condoned, and yet they must be understood for what they are: man learning through his own errors. He also learns by his successes, and there are times when he holds his hand, moments of deliberation, periods of creativity. [...]

[...] You do not worry about the child’s development, for you realize that he will learn better.

[...] For in following blindly you learn nothing. [...] But that you use you own individual abilities, and learn how to handle them. [...] And learn what they are, and you will. [...] And learn the significance—the meaning behind the fact that your daughter and your sister are approximately the same age, and you will. [...]

[...] And you learn in your own way, and you don’t learn in your own way. [...]

[...] But when I speak to you I speak to a part of you that the intellect does not know, and intellect can learn from that part of you to which I speak. [...]

[...] And a portion of her personality knows what she is learning. [...]

[...] But you did not learn all the secrets of this strange image. [...] But you did not feel that you had learned enough. [...]

[...] And in that life you learned the meaning of love, and the false necessity of sacrifice. In this life you hoped to learn further answers of science, but in the eyes of the molecule you found yourself staring symbolically into the eye of that long-forgotten idol. [...]

[...] And you watched it alone until finally you learned its message. [...]

[...] And you became obsessed with learning the message that this image seemed to give you. [...]

[...] The counterparts are not so evident, and yet it is the counterparts that are important: the self-discipline learned, the control, the compassion that finally is aroused, and the final and last lesson learned—the positive desire for creativity and love over destruction and hatred. When this is learned, the reincarnational cycle is finished.

There is a reason why these lessons must be learned in just this way. [...] There are different kinds of creativity, then, that must be learned, and a specialization in energy’s focus and feelings that emerges—elemental energy becoming conscious of itself and aware of issues that did not exist for it “earlier;” millions of molecules momentarily united with living consciousness, filled with primal energy, now learning love and forming highly sensitive psychic patterns; electrical charges that now form emotions instead of clouds; the innocent chaos of undifferentiated personality that exists behind the highly specified and truly sophisticated mechanism of one thought. [...]

[...] The fact is that they can never be condoned, and yet they must be understood for what they are: man, learning through his own errors. He also learns by his successes, and there are times when he holds his hand, moments of deliberation, periods of creativity. [...]

[...] You do not worry about the child’s development, for you realize that he will learn better.

[...] It is only you who have to learn how to draw upon it and use it. [...] You will seem to draw upon a greater source as you learn to use your own abilities. And in all cases, the ego that you know develops and learns, and this alters the nature of the self that you are now, and it changes the characteristics of the ego as you presently think of it. [...]

[...] Now, in other realities and in the Alpha state, there are certain root assumptions like your objects, but you will perceive these again in your own individual manner, and you must learn to differentiate there as you do here. And some of you do not always learn how to differentiate. [...]

[...] It is the self that was familiar to you before you learned to speak. [...] The innermost portions of yourself that is indeed a part of all energy, must be sifted through the self that you now recognize, and your job is to learn how to receive the information and how to open and use the inner self. [...]

(To Phil) You are learning to tap your life energy, to feel its power, its availability and its strength, and that is good, and do not label it. [...]

(To Sue.) And you must learn also that love is noisy and can be a bother and can get in the way, and you must learn not to deny the validity of your own feelings in those directions where you are now tending to hide them from yourself. [...]

[...] This is a method of learning, and as you learn you will solve the problem. [...]

[...] Now you do not trust the inner self to do these things, and you must learn to accept the inner ancient wisdom that is your own. [...]

[...] And you will remember both the location and what you are learning. [...]

What is the point in learning to use the Inner Senses? [...] You will learn what reality is. [...]

[...] Through instructions given by Seth I’ve learned to come fully awake while dreaming, as mentioned earlier. [...] You must learn, through experience, to maintain the proper level of consciousness, and there is always the possibility of falling back to the usual dream state.

[...] You react to the data and learn to handle a larger amount of stimuli than before.

[...] In this environment and in physical reality, you are learning...you are supposed to be learning...that your thoughts have reality and that you create the reality that you know. [...] If you still do not realize that you create the reality that you know, then you return and again you learn to manipulate and again and again you see the results of your own inner reality as you meet it objectified. You teach yourself the lesson until you have learned it. And when you have learned it, then you have begun to learn how to handle the consciousness that is yours intelligently and well. [...]

[...] I will have to learn to be a Reverend Rock Drummer—and, I will keep the beat with you.

[...] If you have too many ties with this reality and if you are too impatient, and if you have not learned sufficiently, then you may return too quickly.

[...] and yet in that one particular life I learned more about the nature of spontaneity and joy than in many of my ponderous intellectual existences.

[...] In this environment and in physical reality, you are learning—you are supposed to be learning—that your thoughts have reality and that you create the reality that you know. [...] If you still do not realize that you create the reality that you know, then you return and again you learn to manipulate and again and again you see the results of your own inner reality as you meet it objectified. You teach yourself the lesson until you have learned it. [...]

And when you have learned it, then you have begun to learn how to handle the consciousness that is yours intelligently and well. [...]

[...] I will have to learn to be a reverend rock drummer—and I will keep the beat with you. [...]

[...] If you have too many ties with this reality and if you are too impatient, and if you have not learned sufficiently, then you may return too quickly. [...]

[...] Such personalities must learn at their end, and this learning is often accomplished along with corresponding learning on the part of a developing medium.This is what you have here. [...]

You are both learning new methods and approaches, whether you realize this or not. You are learning to utilize energy in new directions. [...]

[...] (Pause.) AA (the personality inhabiting the table) is also learning. [...]

The nature and focus of your energy as you learn will be important in other areas. [...]

[...] As you learn to live spontaneously on a physical level, so automatically you will be able to build up such forms and when you do you must learn to train them. You have hands and you have to learn how to use them when you are a child. And so when you grow these forms you must learn how to use them with respect and love. [...]

[...] When you learn through relaxation to accept life spontaneously and to trust to your own inner being then this energy is released. [...]

[...] You are learning to use your consciousness to become conscious cocreators of your own reality. [...]

[...] As you learn to ask the proper questions, it will become more valuable. [...] That kind of question will only give you a certain kind of answer, and if you follow that course then you will follow a question-and-answer course, but without learning anything more than a series of questions and answers that have meaning only within a certain limited framework. [...]

[...] You must learn to understand your motives and even with the hypnotic ability that your husband has, you still have not learned to understand your own motives using that tool. [...]

(To Edgar) And you must learn also to look beyond your own facade for you believe in it utterly, and yet it is not you. The work you are doing is valuable and can be, but it demands a high integrity of a kind you are only beginning to learn. [...]

[...] Now these are things that you will learn, and I am not scolding you, do not look at me like that, or you will make me cry, but it is the only time I have to get a hold of you, and so I want you to understand what I am saying. [...]

Your idea of reality will indeed begin to change and you must learn to manipulate within the new system as you learn of it for the old rules will no longer apply. You will not be able to get along in the old way for learning entails new responsibilities and so you must stretch and grow. [...] You will insist that you learn to use your own abilities. [...]

[...] They will come as you learn to use your own inner senses, and the material will explain what these inner senses are and how you can use them. [...]

[...] When circumstances are at their best then he allows me to come through clearly, but he is concerned over issues that are only of surface importance as far as the volume of the voice is concerned, and he is only now learning control. [...]
