Now: some people who are very wealthy cannot truly enjoy their wealth in their need to protect it.

Now, to some extent, you and Ruburt felt enough the same way to make the analogy feasible, only Ruburt was the one who constructed the edifice that would protect his own abilities, first of all, and yours as well. Beliefs are the attendants—not strangers at all. With such an edifice, Ruburt can only use his abilities under certain conditions, and he imagines all kinds of impulses, situations, or whatever, that might steal them away, or steal away the time necessary to express them. Just like our millionaire, who everywhere imagines in the most innocent face the gluttonous look of the thief-to-be.

The millionaire checks all of the locks, perhaps, or has the bank president show him the latest security measures that are being taken—and to some degree, now, Ruburt, and you to a lesser degree, have checked Ruburt’s security system. Was it secure enough to keep you from accepting invitations, to allow you to avoid distractions, or emotional complications that might arise from any considerable contact with others in, say, “professional terms?” Ruburt built the edifice, but you looked on, for though you disliked the building blocks, say, the symptoms—you thought until very lately that it did serve its purpose very well.

(10:18.) Now give us a moment.... As given in the last session, the cost of running the security system was finally becoming too great, and at different times strong efforts were made to dispense with it. The old beliefs were still there, however, and between the two of you, at the first hint of “danger” Ruburt hastily put the system back together again.

Your household situation was set up with Ruburt’s immobility, relatively speaking, largely uncontested. As it became harder for him to navigate, it became “easier” for him to stay at home. Now you are contesting the issue, and (in) doing so, some patterns should become apparent. It takes your time, and his now, to encourage his walking, and if this is in “working hours,” both of your old beliefs are directly challenged.

Some discomfort is involved, and that discomfort instantly brings up feelings about belief in the body. Ruburt’s faith in his body is growing, but each such situation, right now at least, can and should be a new learning process.

(10:35.) Give us a moment.... Your joint determination is very strong, and is working for you. Definitely encourage his walking as you have planned to together. The disorientation leading to lesser walking for a while was simply the body’s way of protecting itself during periods of initial imbalances. Enough of that is over, however, and Ruburt is determined enough, now, so that whatever you decide upon can be followed through, though the distances might vary. You will see an overall improvement, however.
