| inspire people who have a similar talent. The reason that they very seldom, if ever, manifest through | 11 SELF-KNOWLEDGE -- THE GREAT PLAN -- THE SPIRIT WORLD |
| try very hard to practice positive thinking. One reason they try so hard is that, unbeknownst to | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| an answer. There is also a very good reason for this, in fact a number of reasons | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| wake up the person and find out the reason. This is only one possibility; there may be | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| are about three reasons for that, and each reason is a good one. The first reason is | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| each reason is a good one. The first reason is that Eastern philosophy rightly puts spiritual progress | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| that occurred in the distant past, because the reason of existence on earth, the reason for evil | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| because the reason of existence on earth, the reason for evil, and answers to other questions are | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| important thing is how we develop. The second reason is a little bit more complicated to convey | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| and enlightenment in the Eastern sense. The third reason refers to the fall of the angels as | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| differently and not in His active aspect. One reason plays into the other, one supports the other | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| make a whole. QUESTION: Is that perhaps the reason why the female aspect of God is recognized | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| unless there is a real, good, and spiritual reason for it. Thus works the world of God | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| sight on physical bodies unless there was good reason for it. I wonder how it is possible | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |
| other physical symptoms, without thinking about the real reason behind them. The same applies to the spiritually | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |

| very personal channels, had a good and valuable reason: the people might not have believed their leader | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| say so again. There is a very good reason for this. In a few years you will | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| what God wants from you. There is a reason why He does not give you the realization | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| in this way: Show me, Father, the real reason for my difficulties, so that I can solve | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| that way, and there is a very good reason for that. Yet, in another way, there is | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| true. Do you understand the difference? QUESTION: The reason I asked was that the Bible says, By | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| does not fulfill the destiny which is the reason for his present incarnation, may still advance spiritually | 18 FREE WILL |
| precisely in such a case there is more reason that such a person live somewhere else, perhaps | 18 FREE WILL |
| he hated most in his last life. The reason of the cycle of reincarnation is spiritual development | 18 FREE WILL |
| your community. There is a purpose and a reason for this which I will now explain. Until | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| position to comprehend what life really means, your reason for existence here, and what your personal task | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| human beings make a great mistake when they reason that any communication with the beyond is Luciferic | 21 THE FALL |
| which Christ took upon Himself. He had a reason beyond His infinite love and compassion with all | 22 SALVATION |
| be numerically in the minority for the simple reason that the forces of good are infinitely stronger | 22 SALVATION |
| of them. I am quite sure that the reason for the life and death of Christ will | 22 SALVATION |
| of your evil. Therefore, that was not the reason Christ suffered and died. You will also understand | 22 SALVATION |
| the will of God, not just one good reason and purpose exists, for many factors play a | 22 SALVATION |
| to bring the teachings was not His full reason for living as a man. Beautiful as the | 22 SALVATION |
| did not and this was for the same reason that He undertook life on earth for God's | 22 SALVATION |
| not only for the now so often explained reason that he must always recognize divine justice, but | 22 SALVATION |
| and for this you certainly have all the reason in the world to be grateful to Him | 22 SALVATION |
| pure incarnated spirits. And that was the exact reason why pure spirits were incarnated at intervals, so | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| of the so-called Gnostic literature for the same reason that a number of religions do not refer | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| if there is not a very good spiritual reason. If this knowledge serves the purpose of further | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| own good and sincere will, has all the reason in the world to have joy in his | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| now. Real truth, absolute truth, can only give reason for rejoicing. I know it is difficult for | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| any lack of understanding comes your way, the reason is that you should use these events to | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| has to be that way, for the simple reason that if the lower- developed beings would see | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| late. For all that there is a good reason and purpose. QUESTION: The meaning of the question | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| self turns you away from facing yourself. One reason is that to recognize yourself as imperfect is | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| your life is that you cannot see the reason for anything that happens to you. Only on | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| path into yourself will you find out the reason, and this alone will give you the strength | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| into concise thoughts. This fear is an important reason why a person shies away from meeting the | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| path properly, and I am doing that. The reason why environmental influences are strong can be manifold | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| me if there is any spiritual significance or reason for the different races? ANSWER: Oh yes, indeed | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| your life to be meaningless if for some reason you lose a human love as long as | 28 COMMUNICATION WITH GOD -- DAILY REVIEW |
| no God, I certainly do not see any reason why I should give up what I like | 28 COMMUNICATION WITH GOD -- DAILY REVIEW |
| for that in itself would not be sufficient reason, interesting as this knowledge may be. You should | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| how often you find a personal, emotional, subjective reason behind your convictions. QUESTION: What is the opposite | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| there than on the earth plane. For that reason, development is slower in the beyond and to | 34 PREPARATION FOR REINCARNATION |
| to coincidence. For every detail there is a reason. The physical shell grows in the mother's body | 34 PREPARATION FOR REINCARNATION |
| while you are trying to believe that the reason for such inner action is that you can | 35 TURNING TO GOD |
| the other and quietly look for the objective reason for your reaction. Just a little goodwill can | 37 ACCEPTANCE, RIGHT AND WRONG WAY -- DIGNITY IN HUMILITY |
| darkness. You think so many times you have reason to be hurt, but it is not true | 37 ACCEPTANCE, RIGHT AND WRONG WAY -- DIGNITY IN HUMILITY |
| and also for any other person involved. The reason I request it, however, is that the energy | 37 ACCEPTANCE, RIGHT AND WRONG WAY -- DIGNITY IN HUMILITY |
| that seem to reoccur regularly without an obvious reason are just two examples. There are many more | 38 IMAGES |
| why would they love them? For the simple reason that according to the image, certain faults seem | 38 IMAGES |
| this is not so. I have a good reason to mention these notions of time and measurement | 39 IMAGE-FINDING |
| pleasant to have them and for no other reason, then, of course, it is a selfish prayer | 39 IMAGE-FINDING |
| to fare better. You do not understand the reason for this, nor the justice. The reason is | 40 MORE ON IMAGE-FINDING: A SUMMARY |
| the reason for this, nor the justice. The reason is that in the unconscious the personality creates | 40 MORE ON IMAGE-FINDING: A SUMMARY |
| So one person may, for the same basic reason, have a completely different reaction than another, although | 40 MORE ON IMAGE-FINDING: A SUMMARY |
| is also why you doubt others. Unconsciously you reason: Since I am not true to myself by | 41 IMAGES: THE DAMAGE THEY DO |
| your childhood in accord with your capacity to reason and think. Only relatively is it silly. And | 41 IMAGES: THE DAMAGE THEY DO |
| about that. QUESTION: How can a child spirit reason? ANSWER: Why not? Before it was incarnated, it | 41 IMAGES: THE DAMAGE THEY DO |
| so much superior, that is an even greater reason to cultivate your tolerance and understanding. If you | 42 CHRISTMAS BLESSINGS -- OBJECTIVITY AND SUBJECTIVITY |
| is done really out of pride. The second reason is that deep down in your heart you | 42 CHRISTMAS BLESSINGS -- OBJECTIVITY AND SUBJECTIVITY |
| It does not make any difference for what reason an animal dies. It is the same as | 42 CHRISTMAS BLESSINGS -- OBJECTIVITY AND SUBJECTIVITY |
| be in God! 43. THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION Greetings in the name of the | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| recognize and purify yourselves. There is no other reason for life on earth than to follow the | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| his or her life and reactions mainly with reason. The second type does so mainly with emotion | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| words, the three personality types are dominated by reason, by emotion, and by will. In your self-search | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| aside from imbalance or predominance. For instance, where reason should prevail, emotions do, or vice versa. When | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| with the reason-type, the personality governed predominantly by reason. Those who conduct their lives mainly by the | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| also should be heeded. Such a person of reason is often an intellectual, perhaps a scientist. He | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| The will should be a servant both to reason and emotion. It will be easy for you | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| person completely loses sight of the fact that reason also is God-given. Such people are just as | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| current, and vice versa. It is similar with reason, emotion, and will. Even when there is no | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| no outright predominance, emotion perhaps is used where reason should function, and vice versa; the will does | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| others? ANSWER: Certainly. But there must be a reason for that. People on this path who observe | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| The true reason-type will learn balance, so that reason will function properly in the self-search and purification | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| such things is to help you understand the reason for life and the necessity of development, and | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| and its stage of development, but the only reason for life on earth is purification and self-finding | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| be taken into account. For many the real reason would be quite obvious if they would but | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| fear of one another, for they stand without reason. You who fear the other, remember that the | 43 THREE BASIC PERSONALITY TYPES: REASON, WILL, EMOTION |
| some extent at least, the proper balance between reason, emotion, and will has to be achieved. The | 44 THE FORCES OF LOVE, EROS, AND SEX |
| conscious -- although in most instances the real reason for it is ignored -- or it is | 44 THE FORCES OF LOVE, EROS, AND SEX |
| is unhealthy. It is an escape. The real reason is fear of love, fear of the life | 44 THE FORCES OF LOVE, EROS, AND SEX |
| woman. Eros may want to sneak in, but reason and will can still direct the way in | 44 THE FORCES OF LOVE, EROS, AND SEX |
| their course. Discretion, and a healthy balance between reason, emotion, and will are necessary to prevent the | 44 THE FORCES OF LOVE, EROS, AND SEX |
| you all know that there is no other reason and purpose in life than development and purification | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |
| felt these reactions, no matter how obvious the reason may be as far as other people and | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |
| of your desires. Then we will examine the reason for their existence. Your unconscious desires often deviate | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |
| good, and yet it brings you disharmony. The reason is that you ignore the different motives existing | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |
| what this life is all about, what the reason is for this often painful existence on earth | 47 THE WALL WITHIN |
| And with that knowledge you find the particular reason and purpose of your life, your own individual | 47 THE WALL WITHIN |
| you are sad and discouraged, there is no reason. For life is eternal, and you are building | 47 THE WALL WITHIN |
| declare myself guilty, but I have no real reason to do so. You cannot get rid of | 49 OBSTACLES ON THE PATH: OLD STUFF, WRONG GUILT, AND WHO, ME? |
| trying to convince it that it has no reason to bother you. Of course, all this happens | 49 OBSTACLES ON THE PATH: OLD STUFF, WRONG GUILT, AND WHO, ME? |

| love, and there will no longer be any reason to feel guilty about sex. Try to understand | 49 OBSTACLES ON THE PATH: OLD STUFF, WRONG GUILT, AND WHO, ME? |
| negative emotions can you understand their origin, their reason. Only then can you gain real control over | 49 OBSTACLES ON THE PATH: OLD STUFF, WRONG GUILT, AND WHO, ME? |
| emotional maturity. QUESTION: Would you please explain the reason for the tiredness of many people, especially in | 49 OBSTACLES ON THE PATH: OLD STUFF, WRONG GUILT, AND WHO, ME? |
| whole vicious circle and see its lack of reason; you have to live through the emotions that | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| other people are. This never is the real reason for your feelings of inadequacy and inferiority! This | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| be gratified. This is because of the simple reason that your inner suffering needs a different answer | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| the very moment you understand their lack of reason. Giving them leeway, and realizing that they are | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| hold other people's opinions. Inferiority feelings are another reason for not having your own opinions. You are | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| unaware of this. In fact, this is the reason I spoke on the subject tonight -- to | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| -- often not their own -- is no reason that you must have opinions on subjects that | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| This, by the way, is often the true reason for someone's atheism. The turning away is just | 52 THE GOD-IMAGE |
| is a wonderful world, and there is only reason to rejoice on whatever plane you live, whatever | 52 THE GOD-IMAGE |
| kind of self-love. There must always be a reason. As long as you have not found the | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| As long as you have not found the reason, my friends, no matter how much you know | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| form of self-love. Other factors also enter. Another reason for homosexuality may be an excessive fear of | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| or of men in a woman. Still another reason or possibility may be exactly the opposite. In | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| state of being. Couldn't that also be the reason? I mean the misunderstood current of this longing | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| healthy opposite force, which may be stronger. Another reason may be that the personality is so cramped | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| forms of perversity are sought for the same reason. Here again we have a case of seeking | 53 SELF-LOVE |
| always exist. Masochism arises out of the unhealthy reason of compulsive submission in order to get something | 54 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| Self-punishment for hidden wrong motives is only one reason that prohibits your wish- capacity. There is, for | 56 CAPACITY TO WISH -- HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY MOTIVES IN DESIRE |
| wish- capacity. There is, for instance, the further reason that whatever you desire requires a price. Unconsciously | 56 CAPACITY TO WISH -- HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY MOTIVES IN DESIRE |
| be quite certain, my friends, that the only reason for inferiority feelings is self- deception about your | 56 CAPACITY TO WISH -- HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY MOTIVES IN DESIRE |
| not happen, you have to look into the reason why not and find out where and how | 56 CAPACITY TO WISH -- HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY MOTIVES IN DESIRE |
| difficult to break through the separating wall between reason and emotion. The resistance to face the fact | 57 THE MASS IMAGE OF SELF-IMPORTANCE |
| have not disappeared. Had you found the real reason, the guilt would have had to disappear, for | 58 THE DESIRE FOR HAPPINESS AND THE DESIRE FOR UNHAPPINESS |
| to consider yourself a victim for the very reason I stated previously. This trend in itself is | 60 THE ABYSS OF ILLUSION -- FREEDOM AND SELF-RESPONSIBILITY |
| not. This is a good part of the reason why you reject self-responsibility. By making independent decisions | 60 THE ABYSS OF ILLUSION -- FREEDOM AND SELF-RESPONSIBILITY |
| This means that in this respect, for one reason or another, you live in your world of | 60 THE ABYSS OF ILLUSION -- FREEDOM AND SELF-RESPONSIBILITY |
| throughout the ages. But there is a good reason for that, my friends. Humanity in its development | 60 THE ABYSS OF ILLUSION -- FREEDOM AND SELF-RESPONSIBILITY |
| at the end of their earth incarnations. The reason for more human beings now than ever before | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| not worry about anything. One should understand the reason. The reason is that at certain times the | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| about anything. One should understand the reason. The reason is that at certain times the negative aspects | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| during the period of childhood. This is the reason for life, my friends. If a problem does | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| as vigorously as woman, for he had less reason to do so. His position was better suited | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| that open the road to understanding, intelligence and reason are as nothing and will bring no really | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| kindled by discrimination, which is the result of reason and intelligence, will easily be lost in wrong | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| truly successful. Nevertheless, there is all the more reason for trying marriage now and making the best | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| the emotional side? ANSWER: Yes, that is one reason. It is certainly connected with that. Man shies | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| a combination of many. QUESTION: What is the reason we have two kinds of hormones? ANSWER: The | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| will then be able to remove the inner reason for your sickness. But you must find this | 63 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| spiritual law to tell you about it. One reason is that it would be violating the other | 63 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| decision, but it has to be respected. Another reason is that it would not add to your | 63 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| ever happens, there is a good and valid reason for it. That then would be entirely constructive | 63 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| You feel disturbed, but you cannot pinpoint the reason. You are often utterly unaware of what your | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| while inwardly you cling to it for the reason I have stated. Therefore, I say, do not | 65 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| unjustified guilts are a camouflage for the real reason about which one feels guilty. As I said | 65 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| constantly confirm to you that you have no reason to trust them. But if you genuinely trust | 66 SHAME OF THE HIGHER SELF |
| can only happen if you first establish the reason for not trusting yourself. And this, in turn | 66 SHAME OF THE HIGHER SELF |
| or help in some way, and for one reason or another you feel or imagine this person | 66 SHAME OF THE HIGHER SELF |
| self-destructively in some manner. Once you find the reason why you unconsciously harbor destructive tendencies and wishes | 67 QUESTION AND ANSWERS |
| will find a more specific and more personal reason than the general fear you mentioned here. When | 67 QUESTION AND ANSWERS |
| you mentioned here. When you find your specific reason you will lose this fear. Without this personal | 67 QUESTION AND ANSWERS |
| something might happen, although there is no particular reason or indication that it will. But when something | 67 QUESTION AND ANSWERS |
| any other way, there must be a particular reason. Death can be more painful in a slow | 67 QUESTION AND ANSWERS |
| certain times, the reasons may be varied. One reason may be lack of confidence in the hypnotist | 67 QUESTION AND ANSWERS |
| deny the inner call, be it for the reason of deviations, images, wrong conclusions, or because you | 68 SUPPRESSION OF POSITIVE AND CREATIVE TENDENCIES - THOUGHT PROCESSES |
| force as you learn from it, understand its reason; realize how you have brought it about, no | 69 THE FOLLY OF WATCHING FOR RESULTS WHILE ON THE PATH; THE VALID DESIRE TO BE LOVED |
| cannot be dealt with in the light of reason and reality, it functions abortively and therefore creates | 69 THE FOLLY OF WATCHING FOR RESULTS WHILE ON THE PATH; THE VALID DESIRE TO BE LOVED |
| so often unconscious? Let us first examine the reason. The child's desire for love is limitless, but | 69 THE FOLLY OF WATCHING FOR RESULTS WHILE ON THE PATH; THE VALID DESIRE TO BE LOVED |
| you think. For you will then understand the reason why you were not loved as much as | 69 THE FOLLY OF WATCHING FOR RESULTS WHILE ON THE PATH; THE VALID DESIRE TO BE LOVED |
| emotional climate which subtly affects the personality. The reason cannot be determined merely by what is outwardly | 70 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| remain focused on what happened and ignore the reason behind it, you will remain hurt. The moment | 71 REALITY AND ILLUSION CONCENTRATION EXERCISES |
| because even if, for his or her own reason, the other person cannot respond to your desire | 71 REALITY AND ILLUSION CONCENTRATION EXERCISES |
| again, but it is very possible that the reason is a different one now. In any case | 71 REALITY AND ILLUSION CONCENTRATION EXERCISES |
| it, although unconsciously, and for a very good reason, my friends. Since the child in you is | 71 REALITY AND ILLUSION CONCENTRATION EXERCISES |
| demands of the child in you, you can reason with it. You will realize that this misconception | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |
| will make it so, you have all the reason in the world for distrusting your judgment, your | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |
| spiritual truth has been obscured, and for good reason. You go on to say that humanity in | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |
| cease heeding them when perhaps there is good reason to do so. Then you are all the | 72 THE FEAR OF LOVING |
| in kind. But as you examine your real reason, not the superficial one, the reason why you | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| your real reason, not the superficial one, the reason why you were hurt in the first place | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| away all these superimpositions can you understand the reason why your subconscious is often so stubborn. If | 73 COMPULSION TO RECREATE AND OVERCOME CHILDHOOD HURTS |
| not you have a clear-cut aim. Check your reason for living. What is your purpose in life | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |
| which, too, may not necessarily be the only reason. It may very well be that many factors | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |
| they are similar, maybe you could explain the reason for the decline and virtual disappearance of gnostic | 74 CONFUSIONS AND HAZY MOTIVATIONS |
| occur, others will not. There is a good reason and purpose for every detail, my friends. The | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| Spirit World while we sleep, what is the reason for old people's insomnia and what causes insomnia | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| very sick physically. ANSWER: In some cases the reason is -- and I do not say this | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| words of the teachings. Often this is the reason why such very great ones voluntarily choose a | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| One blurs into the other. That is one reason for the distortions. The second reason is that | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| is one reason for the distortions. The second reason is that the language in the Spirit World | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| is so much more limited. And a third reason, last but certainly not least, is another element | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| you gave just now somewhat parallel to the reason why Jesus spoke in parables and why the | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| the Bible is symbolic? ANSWER: Part of the reason, but not entirely. The reasons why Jesus spoke | 76 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Compiled from Private Sessions and Earlier Lectures) |
| in the other person. This is not the reason. You have to find out what your imagined | 77 SELF-CONFIDENCE: ITS TRUE ORIGIN AND WHAT PROHIBITS IT |
| there is a deeper and more important underlying reason which has evolved out of the recent lectures | 78 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| a healthy way, when there is a real reason or need for either, without compulsion, without frenzy | 78 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| happening to you that seem to be a reason for your discouragement. But deep down, this is | 78 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
