Writing in French versus English and publishing ▶ Play excerpt05:07

Frederic asks in which language he should write, since he writes in both English and French and wants to reach a market and earn money.

The Wonders point out English is roughly his third language and urge him to write in French, his language of greatest ease and expression.

They characterize French as a descriptive, Latin-based language and English as a sparse, Spartan language that became the language of business precisely because it demands less vocabulary.

Their practical advice: write the book in French, approach French publishers, then have it translated (by himself or by a publisher) and sell English rights separately, citing a Swedish author's trilogy written in his native tongue and later translated and filmed.

They note he has never approached French publishers as he did English ones.

The image of the twelve trains and the fear of missing opportunities ▶ Play excerpt01:40

Frederic asks about a previously given image of twelve trains coming toward him, which he had understood as opportunities.

The Wonders confirm they were opportunities, say some have now moved off in other directions and that he has already taken some.

The key point given is that part of his mind fears missing things, causing him to look around constantly; they encourage him instead to recognize it is not about missing anything but about choosing what is in front of him - the mind fears missing, the self simply chooses - which they say will make his life much easier.

Group consciousness, the self as energy, and exploring beyond the mind ▶ Play excerpt23:05

Frederic raises a dream mentioned at an earlier workshop about seeing how far a group could go, and admits people and personalities have become boring.

The Wonders say his concept of group has so far been a mind construct built from personalities, and invite him to look at group from the perspective of energy and consciousness instead - moving from singular to group to collective consciousness to oneness concerns consciousness, not personality or ego.

They decline to hand him answers, saying discovery is the point, and state there are roughly 3,444 directions he could choose right now to explore the concept.

They link this to the sleep material on the conscious resisting the subconscious resisting the unconscious, and recommend the recently completed series on the limitless energy of the self to re-arouse his curiosity.

Recurring events such as light bulbs exploding around him are framed not as things to control but as reminders that he is energy and prompts to observe what his energy is doing in that moment - the same applying to everything, including his interest in magnetism and his plan to see pyramids.

They conclude that ego and personality should not be discarded but used as tools, and that he should create an ego personality truly reflective of who he knows himself to be and let his essence express itself in third-dimensional reality - by exploring and doing rather than thinking, then returning to discuss what he discovered.

Frederic states his first step is to get married.
