              All the other People...
                          are nobody but you.

                                      God... or the Creator... living.


              You however... in your state of development...
                                   think that all others are 'other' than you.

                                                 This is not so.


              ... And the Stars my friend...
                     the Stars are the Energies of Gods and Creators...
                          dreaming their very Dreams of Creation.

                                   And some of them think...
                                                  that they are Human...
                                             listening to their Soul speaking.

                                   In other words... who are they but you.


              Creation is... the Manifestation of the Universal Mind.

                    This Mind is 'active' however...
                                      in all People and Beings.

                    So... you and "I"... and Everybody Else...
                                                   are the Creators of...
                                            the Phenomenal World and Universe.

              To become fully aware...
                    of what we as the Creator have created...
                                We take advantage of our Greatness...
                                                     and live in our Creation.

                           For us... nothing is impossible.
                                        We are the very God and Creator.


              However... in your state of awareness...
                    or rather in your state of unawareness...
                                               the barrier between...
                                     your Consciousness and Unconsciousness...
                                         prevents you from seeing What Is.

              The limits of your Conscious Knowing...
                             forms the boundaries or fences...
                                            beyond which you cannot see.

                    These fences are the unconscious confinements...
                                    that make you a prisoner of your own Mind.

              You will move these fences...
                             by evolvement in Mind or by growing in Awareness.

                                      Be patient my friend...
                                            you live in Time... and Space.

              Know however...
                    that you are the one to probe and grow.

                              You are the one to evolve and become more aware.


                    Yes... "I" can help you...
                                but "I" cannot give you anymore...
                                                         than you can receive.

                          You are the one that cultivates...
                                        the Consciousness you are.

                    It takes effort...
                               effort... patience and love...
                                              and acceptance of What Is.

              You are the Creator of... the Being you will be...
                        by becoming Conscious of the Unconscious Mind you are.

                    You are an Individuated Consciousness...
                          and only because you are Individuated...
                                can you as an Individual become more aware.

                    Awareness means... Understanding... Love...
                                                 and Compassion for All.

              The Miracle of Life...
                          cannot be expressed in words.

                                      For where words come in...
                                                         understanding leaves.


                    To get to know what God is...
                             what Life is... or what you are...
                                        can only be done by living Life.

              Only by experiencing the Miracle of yourself...
                                  can you become aware of the Miracle you are.

                    Remember also my friend...
                          that the Realization of your Greatness...
                                        determines...
                                the Greatness in God you are.

                        In our Universe...
                                 the Known and the Unknown
                                             or
                                        All That Is
                                             is
                                            You.


                        Know that you are growing...
                                   and that "I" am always with you.


                              Anything else you want to know?

                                   - - - - - - - - - - -


                Yes Soul... there is.

                          I know Soul... that You are my Force.

                               I know that You are my Boss.

                                      I know that You do the living.

                    But Who is Your Force?

                                Who is Your Boss?

                                            Who does Your living?

                    And then Soul... these fences...
                                      aren't they Your fences as well?

                              Why don't You do away with them?

                                   - - - - - - - - - - -


              My friend... to be a Soul...
                                indeed takes Patience.

                      Somehow... whatever "I" have been telling you...
                                     went in and out...
                                  and you never heard it.

                      Now... don't become upset...
                                            it's partly My fault too.

              For as you know... although "I" am mighty powerful...
                                                   "I" have still limitations.

                                ... And you are One of Them.

                    It's a very good thing...
                                 that "I" am you...
                                       for that is our only consolation.

                    In order to overcome my limitations...
                                    "I" need you as much as you need Me.


              You see my friend...
                          in order for Me to become educated...
                                             it is "I" who has to educate you.

                          For whatever you learn is to My benefit.

                    But somehow... the whole thing to you...
                                                   has become an enigma.

                                 Yet... it is very simple.

              For by trial and error...
                          We have come as far as We are now.

                                      And believe you Me my friend...
                                                We are close... awfully close.

              It is just that your Conscious Mind...
                          is blocking True Understanding normally.

                      This is partly due to the Dimension you live in.

                                                    You take it too seriously.

              The Earth Plane my friend... the Physical Plane...
                                        is the Manifestation of 'That'...
                                                  what is above and beyond it.

                          You as a God-Being...
                                      belong and are this 'That'.

                                You as a Human Being however...
                                            stick to the Physical too much.

              The Physical Reality...
                            is but one of the many realities...
                                      within the Absolute Reality of Creation.

                    This Absolute Reality contains and is...
                                          the Visible and the Invisible.

                    That... which is Invisible to you...
                                is above and beyond the Visible.

                                      And what you cannot see...
                                                  is what you really are.

              Let's say... you just for the fun of it...
                            dressed yourself up in the Visible.

                                           However... you are the Invisible...
                                                      at all times.

                    You are the Invisible Creator...
                                 of the Visible Creature...
                                                    on this Earth Plane.

                    This Visible Creature...
                              is permeated and sustained by...
                                      the Great Invisible Force you are.

              You however recognize the Visible...
                         and have forgotten about the Invisible Force you are.

                                This my friend... this is your trouble.

                    Your Conscious Mind...
                                 keeps you on the Plane of the Physical.

                        You have to let go of this Conscious Animal.

                                   - - - - - - - - - - -


              You should be using your Grasper more...
                             your Grasper knows more than ten Conscious Minds.
                                       It's the best Knowing there is.

              Your Grasper knows that the real you...
                     is your Consciousness and the Creator of the Visible you.
                            Your Consciousness abides in the Invisible.

                    But when it manifests itself...
                                     it becomes visible as a Human Form.

                    Consciousness then... changes...
                                from one Nature to Another.
                                              From Invisible to Visible.

                         Yet... what is visible to you...
                                  might be invisible to other Beings.

                    The Awareness of these Beings...
                                        is focused upon different Planes.

              A Plane is a State of Mind...
                             it's a State of Being...
                                            an Awareness Level.

                    So different Beings...
                          could be in different States of Mind...
                                  or in different States of Awareness...
                                         but all of them live in the One Mind.

                    There is only One Mind.

                               The Universal Mind or the Mind of God.

                                        This One Mind however... is your Mind.

              This One Mind as it is known to you...
                                 is asleep or hypnotized...
                         and you are only aware of a small aspect.

                                            This aspect thinks that it is you.

              You are looking at the Total Universe...
                        from but one Viewpoint... your Viewpoint...
                                         however... there are many Viewpoints.

                 To see the Total Universe from more than one Viewpoint...
                              is as yet too difficult for you.

                           "I" am the One who has many viewpoints.

              Sooner or later you will have the same Viewpoints...
                                    for you will be... all the Aspects "I" am.


              So... once again... what is Consciousness?

                                Consciousness is you.
                                            It is the Light within you.


              To you however... Consciousness or the Light...
                                    has seemingly divided itself...
                           and appears to you... as a Physical Being... you...
                                and as a Mental/Spiritual Being... Me.


              The God-Being We are...
                       the Physical Being... and the Mental/Spiritual Being...
                            are both representatives or manifestations...
                                    of Consciousness or the Light.


                There is an unlimited amount of God-Beings in the Universe...
                         but not one Being or Thing is its name.

                       All of them are the Light... or the Nameless.

                                     "I" however call this Force... the Light.


              So... the Light is you.
                        All of us are the Light.

                                The light is living on Earth...
                                      and all other places in the Universe.

                    On Earth... the Light appears...
                          as People... Animals and as all other Things.


              So... Consciousness or the Light...
                   seemingly splits itself into billions and billions...
                                     of seemingly separated Beings and Things.

                         All of these Beings and Things however...
                  are inter-connected and inter-related with the Light...
                and are united and in oneness... for all are the very Light.

                        The Light sustains... permeates...
                                   and is... all Beings and Things.


              Not one Being or Thing in the Universe...
                                       can exist without this Invisible Force.

                 Well... and as you now... just because it is Invisible...
                           does not mean that it does not exist.

              So... you then... as a Consciousness or as the Light...
                      are dreaming that billions and billions of parts...
                            exist all over the Universe...
                                  and that they are separated from each other.

                                        This is only true in your Dream.

                    As soon as you become fully awake...
                                  your Dream will shatter and you will know...
                                             that you were dreaming.

              In your Dream then... all things are real...
                          but not until you awaken will you know...
                                 that the whole thing was but a Play or Dream.

                    You are on Earth in order to learn...
                                to control or master this Play or Dream.

                    Your Life on Earth then...
                             becomes a true Celebration or actual Play of God.

                                Then you can multiply fishes...
                                             or raise the dead if you like.

                    However... all things will have to be done...
                                            according to Universal Laws.

                                                  Which you will know by then.


              Finally then... "I" come to your questions....

                     And here they are... what is Your Force...
                                                 and who is Your Boss?

                     Well my friend... you are My Force... and My Boss.

                                      You are the Puppet... and the Puppeteer.

              You as an Individuated Consciousness or God-Being...
                           are the highest and the greatest Force... anywhere.

                                   You are the Light... living as Man.


              Now... in your Dream you will meet other Consciousnesses...
                   that seem higher... better... or more Powerful...
                                                              in your opinion.

                   All of them however... are the same Force as you are.

                          The One and Only Force...
                                   or the Light... that became you.

              All God-Beings you will ever meet..
                    are of the same Miracle-Substance... called Consciousness.

                          All are the Light... and all are Unique!

                            There are no Doubles in the Universe.


              All Beings however... great and small...
                       are the same Good Old Consciousness in different Forms.

                    All of them are united...
                        by the Energies of Love and Understanding...
                                           or the Energy called the Light.

                           All are the Light... in their own way.


              Don't forget though my friend...
                               you are only a small Light on a well lit Stage.

                            You still live in a Physical Body...
                    in order to learn what your Thoughts are capable of.

                    The point however is... You Are...
                                    and once you are... You Are Forever.


              You are a God and Creator in the making...
                  and no other Being... however great... can or will stop you.

                     As a matter of fact...
                           the greater the Being you meet...
                                  the more this Being will appreciate...
                                                   the Self-Made-Soul You Are.

                        Great Beings know what it takes to be Great.


              The seemingly older and greater Brothers of the Universe...
                    are Beings that are permeated and overflowing...
                                                  with Love and Understanding.


                          Love and Understanding...
                                 are the Brick and Glue...
                                                  of the Universe.


              And here then my friend...
                               the question about our fences.

                      What are they... and how do we get rid of them?


              Our fences my friend...
                          are the 'cloudiness' of our thinking.

                                           They are the 'egoness' of our mind.


              In order to get rid of egoness...
                      We train ourselves to become more in Godness...
                                                          instead of selfness.

                    It comes down to...
                                being our Inner Self more..
                                                    than our Outer Self.

                            It means feeling God more and more.


                    To feel like God more and more...
                                 is doing what the Inner You feels like.


              This as you know... is living from the Heart...
                                     instead of living from the Thinking Mind.

              So... do what the Inner You feels like...
                            and do it with Love and Conscientiousness.

                                       Do all this with Feeling...
                                                        and do it Consciously.


              To live and do things this way... is True Being.

                           True Being is the way of the Heart.

                                       Live Intuitively... Spontaneously.

                                    Live and be... without your Thinking Mind.

              That kind of living...
                          is living like a child.

                                  It's the only way to be.

                          This Naturalness my friend...
                                          is what you have to learn.

                                                               It's hard work.

                    This is what has to be done...
                                  to get rid of our fences.

                        But remember... it should be done naturally.

                    Pretending to be natural and loose...
                                         makes the whole thing useless.


              Our fences are partly the result...
                          of living in a society with values...
                                         that are spiritually negative...
                                     and therefore are hampering Inner Growth.

                       Fences are the Standards of Conditioned Minds.

                                Therefore the Conditioned Mind...
                                                       is Spiritually Useless.


              As soon as you discover...
                    that your Mind is programmed with nonsense...
                             just empty it laughingly and become a new person.

                    On the other hand...
                          you just cannot leave or abandon...
                               the World of Man and sit in a cave to meditate.

                    You have to understand...
                                    that doing something else...
                         or going some other place is not going to help.

                                You have to learn to love...
                                            whatever it is you're doing.

                         Spirituality is not doing something else.
                                                         Whatever it is.


              You have to learn to accept What Is...
                               for that is what you have created for yourself.

                     Learn to love Life as it is... for it is perfect.

                          Accept What Is...
                                  and know... that What Is...
                                            is perfect the way it is.

                            To do this effortlessly... is Being.

                    Only by accepting What Is...
                                is it possible to arrive...
                                             where you would want to be.

                           Yet... no wanting should be involved.

                    You have to get there... without wanting...
                                        not even wanting Desirelessness.


              Letting all things happen then...
                          Life becomes a Happening that is Loose and Free.

                          It becomes an automatic Process of Growth...
                                                           and most enjoyable.

              So... to live the right way...
                          is done with two different Attitudes.

                    A Conscious Attitude for making a living...
                               and an Intuitive Attitude for Spiritual Growth.

              It's like living with two different Minds.

                          Both Minds are just as important...
                                    and both are aspects of the Being you are.

                    Also... whatever it is you're doing...
                                             love yourself for doing it.

                          And most of the time...
                                    forget about God...
                                              but remember Man.
                                                        Your Brother God.

              And above all my friend...
                          always keep the following in mind.

                                       All of us are God...
                                              and the World is our Playground.

                          To discover that we are God...
                                            is the Game we play.

                                We play day and night...
                                            life in... life out.

                          Many think or believe...
                                       that God is 'other' than Man.

                                   - - - - - - - - - - -


              Soul... what do I do...
                            in time of war?

                    Do I get out there to fight and kill?

                                      Should I become involved?

                                                         Or do I refuse to go?

                                   - - - - - - - - - - -


              My dear friend...
                    for every situation there is the right solution.

                          Some wars... but very few...
                                  are wars to be fought indeed.

                      Whenever such a war comes along...
                                           you will know what to do.

                   But at this time my friend... no such war is at hand.


              A war to be fought...
                          because of over-population...
                                      or because of unemployment...
                                                is no solution to the problem.


              And don't forget my friend...
                          most wars are started by Governments...
                                                   that are sure they can win.

                          But whatever you do or don't do...
                                               do it without guilt.

              As you know... Life is a gigantic Cosmic Play...
                                   it all seems real... but you know it isn't.

                    If you find that something should be done...
                          by all means... do it with love in your heart.

                          But if you feel...
                                that all this is Insanity...
                                                be 'alone' in Saneness.

                    Never though...
                           be influenced by a Conditioned Mind...
                                                  yours... or any other.

                              Be your Self... the God That Is.

                     Then 'right' or 'wrong' is converted into Godness.

              At all times... when you have to make big decisions...
                             listen to your Intuitive Mind... the Mind "I" am.

                    Listen carefully... for "I" speak the Word of God.

                                                          The God You Are.

                    Being Man my friend... is a Process.

                           A Universal Process of Miracle after Miracle.

              It's a process in which Man...
                                  slowly becomes aware...
                         in higher and higher States of Awareness.

                    After many and many lifetimes...
                                  each member of Mankind will grasp...
                                                         the Greatness Man is.

              In the mean-time however my friend...
                              Mankind on this Solar Planet...
                                      is still basically an animal.
                                                           A Religious Animal.

              By evolution and conscious self development...
                    he will become aware of himself...
                                 and eventually he will understand...
                             that he is indeed the King of the Universe...
                         and has been living in the Kingdom of God since ever.

                    That is what "I" call the Miracle Process.
                              It works... whether you believe it or not.

              So... what is there to think about?
                                Not a darn thing my friend.

                          Thinking is for learning monkeys...
                                        and 'being' is for learning Man.

                                It's the only way to become Human...
                                             it's the only way to become sane.

              Mankind has lived eons and eons...
                          to finally become what he is now...
                                                 a thinking and feeling Being.
                                                      And what is Man yet?

                    The Masses of Mankind are stumblers...
                                        and quarrelsome nasty meddlers.
                          They are jealous... mean... and greedy...
                                                      and obnoxious polluters.

              Yet... my friend... Man is Great... the Greatest...
                                  for if but one of us is Great... we all are.

                 We have come from next to nothing in Matter...
                                         to the Splendid Instrument we are.


                        And how did we become what we are...
                                                how did we do it?

               By Mind... by Consciousness in Action...
                                      by being the very Creator in Human Form.

               So... we have become what we are...
                                because we are the very Light.

                   Man the Universal Being is the Creator in Matter Form.

                          A God-Machine living all over the Universe.

                                                            Man the Universal.

              The billions and billions of Living Forms...
                          are the very Living and Learning Light or God.

                                                       On planet after planet.

              All the different Forms of Mankind...
                         in all the different Levels of learning...
                                          are God...
                                    getting to know itself.

              For God... or the Creator can only know itself...
                                by means of... and through its Creation.

                          What a wonderful way to learn...
                                      what a Miracle of Miracles.


              Suppose Life... or what "I" call Godness...
                    was all explainable by some kind of rationality.

                                            Wouldn't that be a Bore?
                                                    Wouldn't that be the Pits.


              The very fact that 'All That Is' has come about...
                                in this mysterious and wonderful way...
                                       makes it worthwhile to be a part of it.

                    How utterly silly Life would be...
                          if some scientist could explain it all.

                                Wouldn't that really...
                                            make you want to be a Rock?

              Some of our older Brothers in Consciousness...
                                are the Great Souls that helped us...
                                                  to create this Solar System.

                    They are the Ones who guide and teach us...
                                      to grow up and become like them.

              They are Love... Understanding...
                         and they have Patience and Appreciation...
                                                   for all that is God or Man.

              These older Brothers seem to fly around in UFO's.
                                         The flaming Chariots of modern times.

                      They watch and study us...
                             and they are standing by... ready to help.

                      They are the Caretakers of the Earth and Mankind.

                 How beautiful my friend...
                                 how splendid and thrilling...
                                                       being Man really is.

                      How good to know that we are a part of all this.

              It all works by Love and Understanding...
                                      by Goodness and by Godness.

                    It all works by a Force we call God...
                            a Force that cannot be explained...
                                  by the very Beings who are this Force.

              And yet my friend...
                    the Feeling Being "I" am senses...
                          that when "I" have conquered my Dream...
                               "I" will awaken and know the very Force "I" am.

                                     "I" will know it in a Feeling Manner.

              But "I" will never be able...
                              to let some other Being feel...
                                                 what "I" feel and understand.

                    For all of us...
                            have to sense and feel this Force...
                                                   in our own unique way.

                    For what this Force really is...
                             cannot be passed along from Being to Being.

                    It can only be experienced by each Being...
                                      up to the Greatness of that Being.

                    All of us share this Force...
                                    yet all of us feel it independently.

                          To feel this Force...
                                 is the Self Realization...
                                             of the Force you are.

              How splendid my friend...
                          how good it is to be you.
                                      Grace to you my friend...
                                                Grace to you... for being you.

               Speak to Me my friend... and let Me hear the Thoughts "I" am.

                         Tell Me about the Feelings in your Heart.

                       Show Me in words... the Beauty "I" see and am.

                                   - - - - - - - - - - -


              My Soul... I am but me....

                          I am silent...
                                silent within the Stillness...
                                            of the one I am in You.

                                I am astounded and silenced...
                                                  by the Beauty You are.

                    How little I but am Soul...
                                      and yet how Great.. because of You.

                              Where would I be...
                                       without the Soul I am?

                                  Where would I be Soul...
                           if it wasn't for You... the God I am?

                    I am... what I am...
                              because of the Consciousness...
                                                    I am in You and God.


              Let's talk some more Soul.

                    Let's talk about the state of no desires.

                          Let's talk about the Brilliance I will be...
                                                           without wishing it.

                                  How can I do that Soul?


                    How can I be as Brilliant as You Soul...
                                                    without desiring it.
