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. [...]

I have said that vitality in the personality is vitality in the personality. [...] Existence is joyful, and vitality rings throughout the universe, and speaks out indeed with such a voice as mine. [...]

I have come for one purpose, so that you could sense my vitality and sensing this, know that I speak to you from dimensions beyond those with which you are acquainted. [...]

I want you to feel your own vitality. [...]

[...] He thinks of vitality in different ways than you do, but he uses it very well. [...] 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 so let the inner energy and vitality then rise up and express itself. [...]

[...] Be assured of your own vitality and your own confidence to deal with all situations. [...]

[...] And if you are looking for vitality, look to the inner self and you will find it. [...]

If you’ll forgive me, Joseph, I would like to repeat: Mental enzymes allow the solidified vitality to change form. [...] Needless to say, mental enzymes and solidified vitality are dependent upon each other in many ways. The enzyme part of our little equation permits vitality to operate successfully under diverse mental and physical situations and forms the basis for each particular system of existence.

[...] The mental enzymes act upon the vitality, which is, as I told you, the structure of the universe itself. [...] The mental enzymes are the tools, and the vitality is the actual material that forms the universe as a whole, the apparent divisions within it, the apparent boundaries between the systems and the diverse materials within each division. [...]

[...] I have said, if you’ll forgive the brief reminder, that these are composed of solidified vitality.

What these wires are, then, that seem to divide our planes and appear so differently in one plane than they do in another, is solidified vitality, whose camouflaging action is determined by mental enzymes. [...]

The ideas that you have, then, play a large role in the way the body handles its nutrients, and utilizes its health and vitality. [...]

[...] It is up to you to form a body of beliefs that is worthy of your physical image — for you are nourished by your beliefs, and those beliefs can cause your daily bread to add to your vitality, or to add to your cares and stress.

[...] Leanne came in to check Jane’s vitals — they were all normal — and to give her Darvoset. [...]

These ideas do not only inflict severe difficulties upon older members of the population, but they also have a vital part to play in the behavior of many young people who commit suicide directly or indirectly. [...]

— that greatly curtail the natural progression of health and vitality. Here, however, we will deal primarily with those inner predispositions that encourage life and vitality.

[...] These are actually composed of inbred psychological information as necessary and vital to your life as the data transmitted by your genes and chromosomes. [...]

[...] By themselves they can act to unlock additional energy, vitality, and quicken his sense of purpose.

(9:46.) Despite all of that, men and women still find the solutions to many of their problems by rediscovering the larger sense of identity¹ — a sense of identity that accepts the intuitions and the feelings, the dreams and the magic hopes as vital characteristics, not adjuncts, of personhood. [...] Automatically those other, often-shunted-aside characteristics begin to add their richness, fulfillment, and vitality to your lives effortlessly.

[...] You identify yourselves with your intellect, primarily, casting aside as much as possible other equally vital elements of your personhood.

[...] Your intellect is a part of you — a vital, functioning portion of your cognitive processes — but it does not contain (underlined) your identity.

[...] The child in a fashion feels — feels — its own thoughts rise from a relative psychological invisibility into immediate, vital formation. [...]

[...] You cannot close out the vitality of your own being that easily, and the vitality “squandered” on deeper bouts of depression is often greater than the energy used in creative pursuits. [...] It rings with vitality. [...]

The strength, vitality, and effectiveness of thought is seldom considered. [...]

[...] You can only experience its strength and vitality by exploring the subjective reality that is your own, for it will lead you unerringly to that greater source of being that transcends both space and time.

[...] It is concerned with the entity’s innate working knowledge of the basic vitality of the universe, without which no manipulations of vitality would be possible—as, for example, you could not stand up straight without first having an innate sense of balance.

(Long pause at 7:51.) Our vitality wants to express itself. [...] Then even our most unfortunate escapades, our most sorrowful ventures, are not dead-ended, but serve as doorways into a deeper comprehension and a more meaningful relationship with the universe of which we are such a vital part.

[...] And if spontaneous order was such a vital ingredient in the workings of the universe, then what was I doing trying to shut it down in my own daily life?

[...] Action is the inner vitality of all reality. [...] Its action, its attempts at outward materialization, however, must result in the creation of new inner vitality, for this is the stuff of which it is composed. And this new inner vitality will then seek materialization, and so the cycle is never completed.

[...] Since action of any kind, being composed of inner vitality, must seek materialization, the dreams become the constructions of that dream universe of which, again, we have spoken. [...]

[...] Imagine then the inner vitality being some cosmic sphere, but a sphere of more dimensions than you can imagine. [...]

[...] Some of the Old Masters were adept at painting scenes of violence, warfare, sagas, with dark and dreary atmospheres, yet each so filled at the same time with life and vitality that the canvases themselves seemed alive. Even paintings of great destruction spoke of the great creative energy behind the talent that vitalized the very medium, and by its very creativity denied the very strength of the destruction so cleverly depicted.

[...] You can be surrounded by some noise (as Seth, Jane pointed to the ceiling; someone was moving into the apartment above us) or traffic, and feel its great synthesis with the vitality of life, and it can be conducive to peace. [...]

[...] Translate it into health and vitality and laughter. Use it as you will but realize it is your own, and that within you there is a source of such vitality and strength. [...]

[...] Now I want this Mu also to be directed at our friend here (Sue) and let them both see that noise can be spiritual and vital and healing and alive and good. [...]

[...] Now you are having many experiences now that are vital to you in the dream state, and I want you to tell yourself that it is easy to remember them. [...]

[...] Needless to say solidified vitality and mental enzymes are dependent upon each other in many ways. The enzyme part of our little equation therefore permits vitality to operate successfully under diverse mental and physical situations, and to form the basis for each particular plane. [...]

[...] Now, so strong is this tendency for vitality to change from one apparent form to another, that what you have here in your flying saucers is something that is actually, as you view it, not of your plane nor of the plane of its origin. [...] When the flying saucer as you prefer to call it starts out toward its destination, the atoms and molecules that structurally compose it, and which are themselves formed by vitality, are more or less aligned according to the pattern inflicted upon it in its own territory. [...]

[...] If you will perhaps consider again our wires and mazes, I have said if you’ll excuse the brief reminder, that these imaginary wires are composed of solidified vitality. [...]

[...] Solidified vitality wires do not look like boundaries or divisions. [...]

[...] Remember, consciousness has its own protection, its own vitality, and trust in the vitality of your own consciousness and of your own way and that is the answer. For you have a vitality within you and you have only to call upon it and it comes to your aid. [...] It is only when you fear you do not have this vitality that it betrays you, and then it does not betray you, but you betray it. [...]

And now with thoughts of peace I leave you, but sense within yourselves your own vitality and realize that the true source of peace and vitality is within each of you. [...]

[...] I wish you all, therefore, a hearty good evening, and remember that the dead have a vitality that would put you to shame and allow your own parents to smile when they visit you. [...]

Ruburt will want to know if the door is closed, so tell him because I want our friend over here in the bridal white (Maria) to realize that each of you should realize that the energy and strength and vitality that rings through this frail form now rings also through that form and that form and that form and represents the energy and vitality that belongs to each of you, and you all have it to draw upon. [...]

[...] Your own thoughts and feelings should be those of health and vitality so that these alone help in the healing process. [...]

[...] Once you realize that is the reason you must also know that you are an entire individual and can indeed change that pattern of reaction and feel within yourself that energy that you feel, that upsurge of strength and vitality that lets you know you can do this and court that feeling of energy and teach her to court it. [...]

[...] First let some energy flow through your own being and feel it refresh you and make you young and strong and vital and know that it resides within you all of the time. [...]

It is to demonstrate that you have the same vitality within yourself, and if I have this vitality and I do not have a body, then how much vitality do you have that you should be using that you are not using. It is to demonstrate that you are no more physical than I am, and it is also to demonstrate that consciousness is a joyful and a vital thing. [...]

[...] And yet, regardless of that fact, each of you knows me well—you feel this vitality. [...]

When an artist paints a painting, you can look at the painting and say, “Ah, the artist was in a certain frame of mind” or: “Look at the dull colors and the dreary landscape” or: “Look at the wild colors and the fantastic forms” or: “See, there is no form and yet there is marvelous vitality.” [...]

[...] And in so doing, you also closed off vitality and creativity. [...]

This actual gathering up of prime vitality for the purpose of physical construction is not however truly automatic, and it is not truly performed unconsciously. The strong self-conscious self of which I have spoken, the self-conscious self of which your own personality is not aware, this self that faces into the inner world of reality, quite consciously draws upon the vitality and stuff of what is.

In the last analysis the channel for vitality or for vitality’s transformation into physical matter is of course the inner senses’ ability, and there is a counteraction here as far as the conscious ego is concerned. [...]

[...] The actual material from which camouflage patterns are formed is the vitality which exists and which is unconsciously used by your personalities.

[...] The transformation of vitality into physical properties is done by this self-conscious self that faces the inner world. [...]

[...] And I also am quite sure that as you grow to know Ruburt and as you grow to know me you will realize that there is a difference in our personalities and that indeed when I tell you that my vitality spans both space and time, then you will know that I know whereof I am speaking. And that this vitality is your own—then feel it within yourselves—now it is being used simply to let you know of its existence, but realize that it is within you for you to use as you will—for your own good—and you (Brad) are not powerless. [...]

My vitality is no more—no more than your own. [...] Now, I could keep up a demonstration such as this for hours, if only to let you realize that this is your own energy—that the energy that I show is your own—you have this energy and this vitality. [...]

Now again, let me tell you, though the hour be late (quite loudly) and though Ruburt thinks that such demonstrations as these are hardly worth the effort (quite softly) and childish endeavors at best, I still want you to know, as I always want you to know, that my vitality is your own and that the energy that swings through this small frame is but an echo of the energy that swings through your own personality. [...]

[...] Why is it that I must tell you what vitality is when, in your terms, I am a gray ghost that flits through the darkness of the night—a face that peers through second story windows (in reference to Sue’s being frightened by a face that appeared at her window recently) and meets with no response but a sigh of horror. [...]

[...] I do want to mention, however, that pain and suffering are also obviously vital, living sensations — and therefore are a part of the body’s repertoire of possible feelings and sensual experience. They are also a sign, therefore, of life’s vitality, and are in themselves often responsible for a return to health when they act as learning communications.

[...] This at once led her to feeling that as a child it had been vital that she avoid the disapproval of others — her mother, Marie, especially. [...]

The subject matter of suffering is certainly vitally connected to the subject at hand, but basically speaking, disease and suffering are not necessarily connected. [...]
