go into your own future, you automatically change it to something
else.,

I m sorry that I can't fully explain the principle of this except
to say that your astral-subconscious mind is so much
more alert than your physical mind, you unwittingly make the
changes as you go along. When this happens ' you are more
than likely to feel that you were all mixed up, or on the wrong
track, or having real honest-to-goodness hallucinations.

Remember that the fingers of Pate point in many directions,. and
the choice is yours

either consciously or unconsciously, and tha~ the subconscious
mind causes you to act quicker than you realize to detour
unlikable situations

I ihoroly disagree w it h the saying that

everything happens for the best, but I also feel that if you
should look into the immediate future, you should go further in
order to establish a certainty that whatever changes you should
make will be to your long-range advantage. This is
something extremely hard to do, even for those who know the full
value of the extreme fundamentals of development. Use
self-caution.

This is as far as I can take you with this type of lessons. After
you have mastered the exercises, you may feel like going
on to higher lessons and teachings f r o m some of the
better-known esoteric schools. Hop to it, and the best of luck. By
that time, you should be able to choose the honest ones from
among the

frauds. (The end)

To be in agreement with Zora, the Two must
accept the truth that Zora IS a higher intel-

from the intelligence of the Two. The Two works
