Now, this other aspect of this great secret of imagining was given to us by my friend, who is here tonight. He went home and in a vision he was told quite vividly—he being a writer, he was the perfect medium through which it could come—that when you would help another in your Imagination, do for the other what you do when you write a play. In writing a play you play all the characters, so you assume all the characters. Even in a love scene you make love to self to find out what this one would say, what this one would react to, and if in the love scene a slap in the face is in order, you slap yourself. Then in playing all the parts you know exactly how to unfold it. Well, now in doing so, now do the same thing for one you would help when you would apply your Imagination towards the other.860 ¶23
