It was indeed to lift you, as it did you, in your dreams from the ordinary world that you know. Let it enable you to understand yourself better as you. Let it show you portions of your own identity as it has with our cousin of Richelieu (to Bette) and our secretary over here (Natalie). Let it lead you into other aspects of consciousness and vitality as it is with our friend over here and to open doors of feeling as it has with you (Alison Hess). Let it bring families closer together as it has in your case (Janice). And let it above all, also arouse questions as it has with you (Arnold) and with you (Tom D.) but realize again that this vitality that rings through this voice rings through your own identity and yours. That the power beneath the voice is but a shadow of the vitality that is within each of you. Let it then give you confidence in your own identity and in your own reality. Move yourselves and tables will take care of themselves.

(To Daniel.) Now you must realize the vitality that is within each of you and not be afraid of it as you are. Now you are controlling it and disciplining it, but also, you are afraid of it. You simply bottled it up out of fear of your own ability and of the power that resides within you.

Now if you all want to play games some night, we will have some fun with the table. In the meantime, beneath the fun and games, feel your own vitality. Get to know it. Enjoy its sensation.

[...] Action is the breath of inner vitality, of which all materializations of any kind are composed. It represents, again, the relationship between unexpressed inner vitality and materialized vitality.

[...] Here you have also the inner vitality that has not been materialized within the realm of material camouflage. You have the tendency of this inner vitality to materialize, and its inability to completely do so. In the dream state the tendency for this vitality to materialize meets with little resistance. [...]

[...] It arises from within the inner vitality of which all camouflage is composed. To some degree it is a result of inner vitality’s attempt to completely express itself in materializations, and its inability to do so.

[...] Action begins from within, and is a result of inner vitality inherent within all realities. [...]

These three dilemmas represent three areas of reality within which inner reality, or inner vitality, can experience itself. And here we have also the reason, or one of the reasons why, inner vitality can never achieve complete materialization. The very action involved in vitality’s attempt to materialize itself adds to the inner dimension of inner vitality.

[...] Inner vitality, materializing in any form whatsoever, at once multiplies the possibilities of further materialization. At the same time, because inner vitality is self-generating, only a minute fraction of inner vitality is needed to seed a whole universe.

[...] Action is, instead, the inside vitality of the inner universe. It is the dilemma between inner vitality’s desire and impetus to completely materialize itself, and its inability to completely do so. [...]

Inner vitality attempts therefore to materialize itself completely, and yet because of its very nature, with each materialization it increases itself, making the attempt impossible. [...] This of course leads us to the necessity for further discussion concerning the nature of inner vitality itself.

All, all–life is full of vitality, and all life is joyful, and sitting around the table with long faces is not any more beneficial than sitting around the table with wine on it and the lights lit. My vitality is here, and it was not drawn here by long faces nor by sorrow. Vitality grows as it triumphs over sorrows and in any of my antics, as with the suddenly exploding light, there is also a purpose. [...]

Now you should feel a strong vitality here, and you should feel it touch each of you. You all have a vitality and energy that you do not realize that you possess, and it takes such an ancient, old decrepit, sorrowful spirit such as I to tell you. [...]

Once you’ve touched the doorknob and once you turn it, the energy and vitality and freedom that you will feel will overwhelm you, and make your daily lives more vital, and you can use your energies and direct them. [...]

[...] There is only freedom and strength and joy and vitality. [...]

I mean meaningful, necessary, important, vital and any other synonym you wish to apply. [...]

[...] To the vitality within your atoms and molecules. [...]

[...] Now I knew you would evade the questions, so that is all right and it was part of the lesson but you must encounter your own vitality. [...]

(To Ned.) And you must encounter your own vitality and honor it. [...]

[...] And when you hear me speak, it is not only my vitality that you hear, but it is also your own vitality—for I am also a part of All That Is—and if I am ancient and new, so are you ancient and new. [...] There are joys and vitalities within you which you do not perceive, that you must learn not to understand intellectually but to feel. [...]

[...] And my purpose is to remind you that the vitality and meaning of existence is within you. [...] Peace rings with the vitality of the universe. [...]

[...] You sit here with new youth and new vitality—new, but ancient—for there is no newness that does not have an ancient heritage. [...]

[...] And if Ruburt has access to my reality and if my reality sings through him...then my vitality is but a hint of All That Is—and that tiny and insignificant echo of the reality of all that exists. [...]

(Long pause.) Your ideas about yourself are, again, vital in the larger context of a healthy lifetime. [...]

If an individual is hampered in that attempt strongly and persistently enough, then the dissatisfaction and frustration will be translated into a lack of physical exuberance and vitality. [...]

[...] Such beliefs clutter up your conscious mind with negative suggestions that can only frighten the exterior ego and impede the great strength and vitality that is your heritage from lending you the fullest possible strength and support.

[...] The emotional factors are extremely vital, both in the development and in the healing of all dis-hyphen-eases.

[...] I want you then to have an emotional experience in which if even only for a moment, you experience the fullness and vitality of your own nature and of your own identity. [...] Now even as this voice grows stronger let the feelings within yourselves grow stronger and let you feel your own energy from the inner self fill your consciousness and your physical being with vitality and knowledge and the joy of existence. [...] Let the power and vitality and creativity of the inner self within you fill you now with knowledge and creativity and the joy and essence of vitality. [...] Let it give you, indeed, a vitality and strength that will remain within you personally with which  you can identify and let it lead you directly to the inner selves that are your own. [...] Open your eyes to the room and to the time that you know but feel that vitality and know it is your own. [...]

[...] You are quarreling, and in so doing you cut yourself off from the joy and vitality that do make life worthwhile living. [...] You forget what you do have—physical health and vitality. [...]

[...] You are saying “Unless existence meets my terms, I will not exist,” and no one has the right to so set themselves against their own innate vitality and the joy of life that is within them.

You set yourself against all of this, against the gist of life and joy and vitality, and turn your back upon it with the paltry excuse: “If one person does not love me in a male-female relationship in this life, then I threaten to destroy myself, and shatter the form that holds the spirit, and shatter the form like a glass thrown upon the floor, like a child in a tantrum.” [...]

Ruburt, himself, has long known that you had great vitality, but you have been cutting yourself off from your own abilities, and from helping others to a large degree because of this preoccupation. [...]

[...] But the vitality that draws you, and the vitality that is within each of you is the same vitality that changes the seasons that you know and that gives your physical existence its meaning that insures the survival of your identity. [...]

[...] Feel also within you the tremendous energy and vitality that gives existence to your physical image and propels the reality of your thoughts and images and gives any kind of reality to your dreams. [...]

[...] And each of you in a greater sense knows the nature of your own vitality, and none of you are alone or have ever been alone for within you is the knowledge of all the personalities that you are, and within you are those abilities to be used and tapped. [...]

[...] His illness itself made him question, until finally he realized the great mental vitality he possessed. That mental vitality led him to trust his body once again, and to act in direct contradiction to those previous beliefs of the doctors, family, friends, and society that had so bound him.

[...] Here I want to emphasize the importance that telepathy can play, and the vital role of suggestion.

[...] But on the other hand the mother was early frightened by the idea of a vital male baby, who might be overly rambunctious and difficult to control. [...]

[...] In a strange fashion, the pain represented heightened sensitivity – extremely unpleasant, but also represented a vital emotional bodily response of a direct nature. [...]

Now when I speak to you as I have this evening, my purpose, my one and main purpose, is to let you sense the endless vitality that is mine, though you, in conventional terms, would designate me by some ridiculous word—survival personality, as Ruburt says, or “spirit” or “dead.” My vitality is the same vitality that is your own. [...]

[...] We dwell in different dimensions but vitality and personality dwell in all dimensions. [...]

[...] Do not be afraid of vitality nor of your own feeling. [...]

[...] Nor would I think of shattering a window to prove so paltry a point as the existence of my own unlimited vitality and energy. [...]

[...] There is a moment, a brief but vital moment in such an act of creation, when you are dealing with the underlying vitality of which I have spoken. [...] But for this moment you pluck this vitality from the inner senses, you grab ahold of this fuel with both hands. [...] You transform it into a somewhat different more evocative new camouflage pattern that is nevertheless more fluent, more fluid, than the usual pattern, and which gives greater freedom and mobility to the basic fuel or vitality itself. [...]

[...] The inner senses are concerned with vitalities beneath the camouflage. [...]

[...] It is fuel to your physical body and the idea of it comes very close to this fuel of the inner senses, which is not a camouflage effect and which is our vitality unsolidified, or the little wires which make up our imaginary universe. [...]

[...] The elements change position constantly to transform the inner vitality or fuel from one camouflage pattern to another. [...]

We have, I believe, used the analogy of air, comparing it to the vitality of the universe in one of our previous sessions. As air is dispelled from the lungs in various forms and used and reused without any loss of power, strength or quantity, so is the vitality of which we speak used in different manners. [...] And as air seems invisible so does this vitality seem invisible, and yet like air this vitality gives shape to every object that you see, and so does it form every camouflage. [...] And so the ability to use this vitality well is as necessary to life as is the necessity to use air for breathing.

[...] It involves drawing upon the basic vitality of the universe in using the inner senses, and actually pulling to oneself more and more of this underlaying vitality. [...]

In the first place this vitality is self-generating and limitless, and we shall go into origins, reasons and so forth all in due time. Nevertheless as you do not deprive another of breath as you breathe, so you do not deprive another of the vitality of the universe simply by the act of using it yourself.

[...] It is just as ridiculous to deny this vitality because it is usually unseen, or because you do not understand how you use it.

[...] There is a brief but vital moment when you are dealing with the underlying vitality of which I have spoken.

[...] But for this moment, you pluck this vitality from the inner senses. Then you transform it into a somewhat different, more evocative, new camouflage pattern that is, nevertheless, more fluent, more fluid than the usual pattern, and gives greater freedom and mobility to the vitality itself. [...]

[...] That is, any camouflage is a distortion in the sense that vitality is forced into a particular form. Mental enzymes are actually the property of the inner world, representing the conversion of vitality into camouflage data which is then interpreted by the physical senses. [...]

The elements — those that you now know and those you will create — are camouflages of the basic stuff or vitality which you cannot discover with your outer senses. [...]

In actuality all of the seemingly erratic genetic variances that often crop up in human development are vital to the elasticity of the entire genetic system.

Many deficient individuals in their way are as vital to the development of humanity as geniuses are, for both preserve the elastic nature of human consciousness, and promote its coping qualifications.

[...] Often, therefore, instances of unusual genetic differences may also serve to bring out qualities of understanding, sympathy, and empathy on the part of family members — and those qualities also are vital to human development. [...]

[...] She said staff isn’t going to take her vitals regularly anymore, especially when they’re busy.)

[...] Ruburt’s exercises are important because of his intent in doing them; a vital, beneficial change of attitude there, and because of that his body is responding.

It is vital, again, that both of you trust that healing process and not hamper healing’s creativity by tying it to any given day’s practical experience. [...]

[...] That is the meaning of spirituality and as I have told you before, if I could, I would do a merry dance about the room to show you that your vitality is not dependent upon a physical image. [...]

[...] The vitality of the universe is creativity and joy and love and that is spirituality. [...]

They, your parents, are done with each other, your mother being more honest than your father in this respect. (Long pause.) Her rage, you must understand, is the other face of life, vitality and love, and she will not give up her demands. [...] He always resented her vitality.

[...] She gave him sons hoping to pacify him, but he always felt that the sons challenged his vitality and position.

[...] Her vitality fed him, but it could not rouse him. [...]

She will not listen to reason, because reason would rob her of her rage, and all of her vitality is now in her rage. [...]

You are teaching yourselves the value of consciousness and vitality and strength and life, by pretending to yourselves that death is death and that your consciousness will not continue and that your parents who die are forever still, by pretending that the voices you have heard in childhood will be heard no more. [...] You have chosen for the unoperable intimacy of tragedy and flesh and pain in order to teach yourselves the unoperable exultant nature of your own vitality and energy and song. [...]

[...] I want you to feel their reality, their strength and vitality and to realize that they also reinforce your own life and your own existence. [...]

[...] First of all, through listening to my voice, I want you to be reminded of the sheer physical vitality that is now a part of your own being. [...]

[...] Our energy is as vital, far more than you own. [...]
