Associations are highly personal, bringing together in thought and in dreams highly individualistic constructs in which actual events and fantasized ones come together. In Framework 2 those freer associative patterns are everywhere potent. The associative processes of the world, with their literally infinite capacities for creative constructs, are there available. Your world is first of all a mental one. The organization of Framework 2 is then highly associative.

Ruburt discarded that instance, you see. I want to make the point, however, again and again, that physical events spring from mental events.
(10:10.) Ruburt has been worrying, rather than concentrating upon his creative work. Neither of you have moved mentally, even playfully, ahead in terms of imagining what you will do. Ruburt’s fantasy that I mentioned—that was an attempt. The imagined motel trip a beginning, a mental move. I suggested you imagine a vacation. Neither of you have done so, though Ruburt did make a few attempts. You must move mentally, and you will move physically.

As you begin to make mental plans for a freer future, the same kind of events happen. Events that before seemed impossible first of all seem perhaps possible, or you can see that they can indeed be carried out right now to some extent, in perhaps a limited fashion. Your mental world becomes freer. That freedom induces physical improvements. You must be free in your imagination. You must learn to reinforce each other’s faith in Ruburt’s constant improvements, as you have encouraged each other’s faith in your own and each other’s creative abilities.

(10:28.) This session is highly important. You make mental plans for your creative work. You are both highly reluctant to change your mental habits, much less your physical ones. You have no idea of the creative potential you are missing.

That particular event or fantasy, nipped in the bud, is simply an example of the way that you nip such possibilities even in your imagination.

If you have faith you will not question the means, or the process. The questions of course add to further tension, and inhibit your mental creativity about the condition. I want you to become enthusiastic about my red star exercise. I feel that I must explain to you from A to Z my reasons for initiating it. I must tell you that it can help in a new organization mentally, break down some negative associations, and so forth.
As you allow your mental creativity reign in this direction you automatically bring into play exactly what is necessary to make such creativity practical. You have been afraid of the enthusiasm that you have both felt at different times. When you do feel that way, immediately tell the other. Concentrate, remember those feelings of faith, and encourage them in the other.
