68: EVOLUTION, MAN’S

“You have asked as to what point in man’s evolution he becomes conscious of self. This consciousness of self in man is a gradual process, and does not start at a definite point. It grows in him in this world and continues to do so in the future spiritual world.
“Man can certainly recall past experiences in his evolution, and even when his soul leaves this world it will still remember the past.”
