There is no doubt that improvements have occurred in Ruburt’s condition. You would have to be blind not to realize that his ankles and feet, his hands and wrists, his neck and jaw, have all improved. Frank is correct: many ligaments have stretched to allow him to sit down—(leaning forward, and loudly:)I would say 50% better within two weeks.

His body is responding extremely well, despite the mental anxiety that both of you place upon the process. Ruburt’s condition is in no way reprehensible (repeated twice)—there is no reason why you should consider it in such a fashion. There are more people than you know, relying upon the best medical knowledge of the society, who are in far worse shape, whether or not the condition is observable—millions, incidentally, with false teeth.

It does no good to exaggerate Ruburt’s condition, and if you do not exaggerate it, then you must admit the improvements that have lately occurred.

Because you were born in this culture, it is not surprising that you still fall prey to lack of trust in yourselves, or in the body’s abilities to cure itself. Teachings to the contrary have been deeply imbedded. You do have something extremely valuable when you realize it, though this is often lost to you in practical terms because of your fears and negative projections. The large majority of people are confused, besieged, and struggling without any clear idea of why they are in such a state, and with barely a hundredth fraction of your insight or understanding, unable to form their own framework, yet aware that the conventional one is sadly lacking. Your sense of direction may be far more obvious to them than to you, because they sense it so vitally in contrast to their own condition.

(11:33.) You are trying out highly creative, innovative, imaginative, and truthful concepts—not just theoretically and artistically, but applying them to your lives. You have again fallen into the habit, negatively, of considering your achievements in other areas as insignificant—(louder:) in light of Ruburt’s condition as if they caused his condition. They did not. His condition was caused by a set of beliefs, and so was everything else in your lives.
