“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Had the man seen Ruburt’s mouth two years ago he would have been outraged, and told Ruburt he would not have a tooth left in his head by now. And Ruburt most likely would have reacted to the suggestion.

Negative thoughts running rampant do cause infections. Negative suggestions however can also keep them going. I suggest that Ruburt concentrate as much as possible on his work, even in his psycho-cybernetics exercises.

Ruburt has a good idea of that from his work with the pendulum.

If however his treatment involves drugs, these may further upset the inner processes, causing further imbalances. These imbalances may be labeled with a name also. Ruburt’s symptoms would therefore be called arthritic, since they fit into that category, so named. To concentrate upon the term however is dangerous, for it gives a specific identity or implies a state of permanence to a group of varying and impermanent symptoms.

Give us a moment, please. Now there is an exaggerated fear on Ruburt’s part of the word arthritic, for in his mind it is connected with his mother’s chronic state. He should understand it does not have this meaning to other people necessarily. He feels threatened by the term. (Long pause.) It’s being used in the context it was, in your parent’s home and under those circumstances, was unfortunate.

Any new venture of course or interest serves the same purpose, as will your vacation or any endeavor or pursuit that captures Ruburt’s attention. Energy is automatically drawn away from negative areas and from the symptoms.
