“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I said that the body’s resiliency is far more important than any other consideration. You live in a cultural world. I cannot make decisions for you, based upon your social mores. Ruburt can save the majority of his teeth. Now in certain terms that would be considerable—that is, an achievement. In certain times people lost their teeth, when they did, as Ruburt has, and in a natural fashion. They simply dropped out of your head. The unlucky ones had to have them pulled, by the most torturous of processes. Lucky ones like Ruburt went on chomping merrily with the teeth that were kept, and with the gums between that became quite adequate for the necessary procedures.

The muscles and ligaments have their own characteristics. The body must maintain its overall balance. As Ruburt definitely recovers, certain muscles not adequately used in the past must regain not only agility but strength, and begin to stretch to their natural capacity. They will be sore at times. This is not a negative pattern, however. The very soreness is a sign of the muscle’s reaction—its life.
