He creates impediments then as in the other area he creates success. To a lesser extent this applies to your own approach also. Creativity is involved. Let us look then at the third area, for at one time you both also to some extent imagined impediments, changed your approach, and found new results. That area is the financial one, that indeed does now seem to come with an almost magical ease.

You changed your approaches indirectly, and Ruburt was always stronger in the financial regard than you, as far as his beliefs that artistic creations could bring financial rewards. You believed that commercial art could give financial results, but not necessarily good writing, or good art.

There were other issues that have been mentioned, concerning you and the marketplace, but Ruburt’s creativity straddled poor beliefs finally. He stopped looking for financial impediments. He did not worry about money. Just not worrying about it immediately began to give you some financial gain, for in Framework 2 conditions were reversed, and the imagined impediments were not projected into the future. Finally, in Framework 1 those gains began to show: the evidence, in other words. (Amused:) Then, in Framework 1, you had some success to bank upon.

He felt that your needs and desires would be fairly reasonable; that is, he approved of them. He did not think you would suddenly become ostentatious, for example. Again: Frameworks 1 and 2 merged, and the beneficial results began with a change of ideas and intents in Framework 2.

In a manner of speaking, then, supernatural help is available, but only when your own beliefs are clear enough so that the help is not blocked. By supernatural I mean the source from which nature springs, and Framework 2 represents the medium in which the natural and the source of the natural merge in a creative gestalt. That gestalt forms your physical being. Nature, without nature’s source, would not last a moment.

In Ruburt’s dream last night, he was dancing. His physical body carries that memory. The actual muscles involved were rehearsing. The dream in Framework 2 is as much a definite plan for a normally walking body as any Oversoul Seven that did result in the book. The original Seven did come from a dream, from a drama occurring in Framework 2—but there were no negative beliefs to block it, no habits of erecting impediments. Other dreams of Ruburt’s health did not materialize because their creativity was blocked by an insistence upon following, in that regard, the most limiting of Framework 1’s premises.

The move, however, served to highlight some of those beliefs, so that Ruburt could see that he could not afford to carry the process any further.

Frank represents your belief that you must hold on to someone at least medically oriented, if unconventionally so, in Framework 1—a needed crutch, and he has been of some help. He has also however reinforced your conventional beliefs that muscles and joints must behave thus-and-so, that so much time must pass for such processes to take place; he helped you set up a situation that served handily, for you could not leave Framework 1, nor yet really accept wholeheartedly Framework 2.

Such methods will work now because of the changes in beliefs he has made—that is, he is more open. In your intimate periods, to some extent at least, impediments become minimized through love and desire. This session should help him, so that he can begin to mentally minimize impediments, and then they will be minimized.

So in our change of method, have him try as best he can to forget such details. The morning shower, in its way, was a breakthrough, for several years of conditioning simply disappeared—an issue I notice you did note.

By way of comment, and in reference to this discussion only, without taking other issues into consideration, your own parents for example operated largely in Framework 1 for their entire lives. In portions of our work and your own, you have sometimes operated in Framework 3. Ruburt’s initial Idea Construction experience momentarily propelled him into Framework 4, where indeed enough energy, creativity, and power was generated to change his life beneficially, and open his mind to higher levels of understanding and knowledge.

The actual time involved in that experience was minute. In a way—underlined twice—that kind of time use represents the kind of threshold I use in my communications in sessions. If you followed Framework 1’s beliefs, the sessions would never have begun.
