| The problem never arises that someone who is ready for the path may not have the opportunity | 21 THE FALL |

| the ladder. And now, my friends, I am ready for your questions. QUESTION: Is it all right | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| you have wondered whether a spirit, before being ready for incarnation, has to go through these various | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| until they reach the stage where they are ready for human incarnation, with longer or shorter periods | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| tonight. And now, my dear friends, I am ready for your questions. QUESTION: Would you mind telling | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |

| mature enough for it. You can make yourself ready by trying to make the best of your | 44 THE FORCES OF LOVE, EROS, AND SEX |

| a price. Unconsciously you may not be completely ready to pay the price -- the true price | 56 CAPACITY TO WISH -- HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY MOTIVES IN DESIRE |
| What would be the required price? Are you ready, completely, without reserve, to pay this price? Do | 56 CAPACITY TO WISH -- HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY MOTIVES IN DESIRE |
| not force yourself to say, Yes, I am ready, when emotionally you are not. As long as | 56 CAPACITY TO WISH -- HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY MOTIVES IN DESIRE |

| meadow of rest and light until you are ready to tackle the next hurdle. All this is | 60 THE ABYSS OF ILLUSION -- FREEDOM AND SELF-RESPONSIBILITY |
| reservoir of the soul; therefore, the entity is ready to start earth life after a shorter period | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| on this earth sphere now because they are ready for it. They are either ready to start | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| they are ready for it. They are either ready to start incarnation, or ready to resume it | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| They are either ready to start incarnation, or ready to resume it faster. This may create certain | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| lie with the individual. Whenever an entity is ready to face himself, thereby assuming true self-responsibility, he | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
