(Pause.) Ruburt’s depression-part of today represented, again, his recognition and expression of feelings that before were to a large degree buried in the symptoms, or translated into them.

Ruburt receives esthetic pleasure from looking at the clean rugs or windows—a pleasure which actually encourages his creativity. The same applies of course to you and the yard.

(Pause.) Art provides its own services to the individual, whether or not it appears to be utilitarian. Ruburt’s own inspiration operates with its own rhythms: his Stonehenge poem, or whatever. In between, while it may seem he is not being as creative, inner work is being done that will later appear in a new burst of creativity. This applies to long or short projects.

(9:28.) It is very important that he understand that. His creativity, in other words, is renewing itself now. (Long pause.) An animal in Ruburt’s physical condition would simply be resting, perceiving body alterations and odd states with patient acquiescence, doing what it could physically and forgetting about the rest, trustful in the body’s capacities to heal itself. The more Ruburt relaxes the quicker his body will show the improvements that are now developing. Certain attitudes should be clearly expressed. There is no need condemning the attitudes he will be inspired by on both the long and short projects. He will receive new insights and inspirations. Now he becomes frightened that he will not. You can help him there as he discusses his feelings. He depends upon creativity, for example, as you do, to provide a more or less steady source of enjoyment, excitement, personal accomplishment—not to mention livelihood —and as per last evening’s session, creativity operates in ways that may appear uncertain.

Ruburt thinks that way fairly easily, so let him use the same kind of thought with his physical and psychic mobility, mentally imagining that he is opening inner rooms, discovering inner territory that has remained unclaimed or going back into delightful rooms, filled with motion that he had momentarily forgotten.

This will give you your fourth session in sequence again. Read the four sessions, and discuss them. Have Ruburt make sure he begins to follow all of the suggestions given therein. (Long pause.) The changing of priorities should become more or less second nature, and not forgotten after a week or so. Again, Ruburt’s body is changing, and for the better.
