The conscious had to appreciate in quite real terms its dependence upon intuitional wisdom. There had to be agreement and unity. The conscious self was not to be left by the wayside, wondering while the intuitional abilities led to fulfillment. The conscious intellectual faculties had to realize what was operating in order that they themselves be fulfilled.

(Smile.) I must help you, for you are brothers left behind. You are therefore challenges to me. Your progress is my challenge. Ruburt’s condition now is his challenge, for in overcoming it he overcomes limitations of which he was not aware before. Only when they became physical was he acquainted with them.

Ruburt’s recovery will be the symbol of a far greater recovery and of inner development that will never fail him. He must now push himself to physical activity, into vigorous action, and in doing so he is expressing the inner decision that he will no longer tamper with intuitional spontaneity. He has learned what happens when he does, and he has unlearned the false and distorted lesson that was put upon him in his early years.
He will have finally learned intellectually and consciously, that he need not fear the spontaneous self, which has always been his strength, for it sustains him. He was made to deeply fear it, and it was a strong, dominant part of his personality. The psychic work made him fear that he had allowed it to go too far.
The ego found poetry acceptable and never challenged it. The psychic work was something else entirely. This, with other problems mentioned earlier, led him to a deep mistrust of the intuitional self. He felt he could not go ahead.
He needed time to get his bearings. He felt psychologically paralyzed to some strong degree, and this was reflected in physical terms. Luckily the intuitional self did not retreat to any large extent. The developments were already fact, and worked to good advantage.

(10:15. Jane’s pace had been good, her eyes open often, her manner emphatic. At break she stretched out on the divan, eyes still closed, instead of sitting up as usual. She breathed deeply. It was several minutes before her eyes began to open; she struggled to open them, but gave up finally.

All activities are good for him, mental and physical. His classes stir him up, you see. It was fear that slowed him down. Faith in his abilities and in himself as a part of All That Is, will now set him in motion. He picked up restraints from you because he was open to the idea of restraint so strongly.
Before, he used his intuitional abilities but always intellectually mistrusted them to some degree. Now he will trust them consciously and intellectually, and this development had to occur for his fulfillment now. It was a prerequisite for other developments and work that will come.
You always recognized and envied his spontaneous nature, without realizing consciously that it operated despite his intellectual disapproval of it. Through his difficulty you are saved considerable problems, for through his experience you understand the dangerous inhibiting nature of overrestraint. It is because his spontaneous self is so strong that the conscious self had to learn to cooperate, if the personality was to achieve full stature.

(10:38. Jane was again very well dissociated, and a long time coming out of trance. Her pace was quite slow last delivery. Her eyes opened very slowly, and she went to bed when she finally did get up.
(Her trance was as deep as any she has had, she said later. It seemed obvious that Seth used this extreme in order to get the material through tonight without distortion. I thought it an excellent summary of problems we seem to be surmounting.)
