“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

When inner challenges and problems went unrecognized for some time, and became physically materialized, these were the areas chosen. The resulting symptoms then served to reinforce the initial lack of trust. A state of faith in reverse therefore operates.

The rules are the same: as you believe, so you are. Now even after the initial causes of the mistrust no longer strongly operate, you are left with the results of in quotes “your faith,” in this case the faith in immobility. As already discussed, the exterior situation then serves to reinforce the inner data, and it seems to fly in the face of all reason, to deny exterior symptoms. You follow me here.

Ruburt’s enjoyment of the trees will lead you to an area of greater trees. His enjoyment of class money will lead to more. In any of these areas however concentration upon the lacks would reinforce these. I want you to see what you do right, so that you can apply it to these other areas.

The set and expectations will change. It is important that you try to play this with him, or know what he is doing, simply because you reinforce each other so strongly. So you play your own “as if” game with him. This will help. Do it in the same manner. As Ruburt knows from his reading today (Psycho-Cybernetics) when the dawn suddenly burst, any discouragements should be accepted as part of the learning process with which he is involved—and the failures, particularly of the past, forgotten. You should not remind him of them either, or concentrate upon them yourself.
