Some of you were quite surprised by the strangers that you met. None of you have made the connections as yet between the strangers you have met in your dreams, the strangers that have come to class, and your own experiences.

Now, my welcome to those who came for the evening, and I have a few remarks to make to our regular class members. You have met many strangers lately, both in the dream state and in regular waking reality. And you met some strangers here last week. See that you learn who they were.

[...] Therefore, I want you to take particular notice of people in your dreams who are strangers to you. [...]

([Gert:] “Would we at anytime hallucinate, say, the strangers?”)

([Gert:] “In the dream state, these strangers or associates, would we put on them a face that we would be able to relate to, say, a member of our family?”)

These will appear to you as strangers and not as people that you know. [...]

[...] Around you there are friends and strangers, and you have always been friends and strangers to each other. [...]

[...] The voices of strangers and beloved ones are often the same voices, and the scenes that you see often, you have seen before. [...]

[...] I come to you as a complete stranger. I am a stranger to you but you are not strangers to me, and so you see, I have the advantage, and I always take advantage of my advantages.

[...] Also be on the lookout for strangers that specifically approach you. Not strangers that you meet, but strangers that approach you where no effort is required on your part. [...]

Before I discuss our main material, I have a few comments regarding strangers.

You might make a small sign: “Beloved stranger: we are working. [...]

[...] You could compose several such signs, so that one might read: “We are not seeing any strangers today at all,” but there are many variations that you could settle for.

As mentioned earlier, however, in the sleep state you may help recently dead persons, complete strangers, to acclimate to after-death conditions, even though this knowledge is not available to you in the morning. So others, strangers, may communicate with you when you are sleeping, and even guide you through various periods of your life.

[...] We are strangers, incidentally, meeting in the dream.

[...] They were friends of my mother but strangers to me and I thought that maybe they had read the ESP book.

[...] The stranger lives on the island and he wears a ring. [...]

[...] There is an S connected with the stranger, also an A. And the Grangers have come from down a road or path, that is somewhat hilly, from a settlement there, and they have been riding, perhaps bicycles or wagon-like vehicles—or a wagon driven by animals—pulled by animals. [...]

[...] The stranger lives on the island and he wears a ring. [...]

[...] There is an S connected with the stranger, also an A, and the Gallaghers have come from down a road or path that is somewhat hilly, from a settlement there, and they have been riding, perhaps bicycles or wagonlike vehicles: or a wagon driven by animals; pulled by animals.

If, for example you see, in objective life with strangers about, that you prefer your isolation, relatively speaking, you can make certain decisions. [...]

When no effort is made now and then to encounter strangers, or guests of that nature, in any position of relative authority, then Ruburt does not question his feelings or beliefs directly. [...]

[...] Nor could I take any comfort from Seth’s remarks about encountering strangers, or even friends, I said, since it seemed that whenever any outsider was present we were both constantly worrying about whether they would notice Jane’s condition, whether she ever got on her feet, and so forth, until it seemed that those episodes were hardly worthwhile. [...]

[...] She met two delightful strangers—near-foreigners. [...]

[...] Until Ruburt was at his desk this evening, he did not finally decide whether or not he would greet the strangers you knew had earlier tried to reach you. [...]

This sort of thing happens frequently with Miss Dineen, and consciously she is drawn toward areas of town, for example, in which certain individuals are shopping or strolling, so that while she visits few fashionable establishments, she enjoys a series of seemingly unrelated, pleasant encounters with strangers.

[...] For reasons that I will get to, and to some extent have told you, you got into the habit of inhibiting joy, and being a stranger to gaiety.

[...] You have all met each other either as strong friends or relatives or acquaintances or simply as strangers who passed each other perhaps upon a street in another time and another place. [...]

[...] And as I always do to show not only guests and seeming strangers the nature of vitality but always to impress it as deeply as possible into your knowledge, then let me again remind you that this vitality is your own; that life, physical or nonphysical, is a full vitality that it is not necessarily quiet, that it is not necessarily sedate, and though my voice does not ring with the innocent chatter of children, that that same vitality that fills them fills me and fills each of you.

(“Connection with a stranger also.” Last Friday evening was connected with a stranger, in that a stranger, Georgia Mae Fields, wrote the article on table tipping in the November 1966 issue of Fate Magazine. [...]

[...] Connection with a stranger also.

With strangers the sessions often are personal, however, because their own needs and emotional reactions are initially so vibrant. [...]

[...] None of you are strangers. [...]

[...] A meeting with a stranger, a man, in his office, and some connection with Detroit. [...] This is separate from the earlier mention of the stranger. [...]
