Ruburt has found again what you never really lost—the sense of daily joy of existence—which he allowed himself unknowingly to relinquish for some time. Follow the advice given you earlier this evening, the both of you.

Now this helper, as time goes by, can be counted upon to help you in whatever ways it can, as long as Ruburt continues in his present frame of mind and habit, for this itself is bringing about improvements in all areas of your lives.

I will have more to say concerning this at another time, for Ruburt can use the information. Now I suggest you take your break and we will continue.

At one time therefore Ruburt’s fears greatly overbalanced his hopes. Feelings of desolation outbalanced feelings of joy. In a concentrated form in this other realm, this self-image was reflected. Following the laws of attraction, it drew to it other such realities.

(Pause.) Ruburt was made aware of the fact in an out-of-body state when they came face to face. He kept careful note of his feeling and reactions during that time, and knew he could not get in that state of mind again: so he started in quotes “upward.” The old habits however had to be broken down in both realms.

The black thing could be called a shadow image. The dark side of the personality gaining dominance for a time. The helper represents the strongest, most creative aspects of personality, gaining greatly in ascendancy. In between you see the image is much the same as the one shown by the normal personality—the weaknesses and strengths balancing out.

Those familiar with a helper very rarely ever experience their equivalent black thing again, though the black thing can appear many times before the personality changes its ways, and grows.
