(10:05.) Give us a moment.... I am not going into Ruburt’s condition to any great degree, but I do have some information. Obviously he is in the middle of a learning adventure, trying to do far more with his ordinary consciousness than most people, and trying to solve his problems and encounter his challenges without relying upon old structures of belief—healthwise not relying upon doctors or dentists. He has done this even though he has been working in relatively untried areas, where there seem to be few certainties.

(10:11.)The Nature of Personal Reality is there for others to follow. Others, however, did not have a hand in producing it. They will try out the ideas, many of them, to the best of their ability, and learn and gain much, all the time hanging on safely to the banners of conventional beliefs—and Ruburt has allowed himself no such comforts. He should remember that many people have far greater hassles, not only with health but with personal relationships, finances and vocations, and without any satisfying accomplishments to offset their “misfortunes.”

In a way his progress has been dependent upon the state of his learning, so that he has been trying to stretch the abilities of normal consciousness by drawing in other “strands.” Yet because he was the one so involved, he had to test each strand, and in the meantime he still had his “old” consciousness, with its habits, to contend with.
