(Long pause, eyes closed.) These are like containers for behavior, however. For some time, as you became involved with the hospital and medical habits and people, Ruburt in particular grew very frightened. He began to look at his own experience—to some extent, now—through that medical cast. (Long pause.) He saw how unfortunate its results could be. You were both quite aware of the fact that to almost anyone else there is no blame attached to following such a premise. Ruburt became very frightened, however, as he saw where such a trend could lead.

Again, this will be a brief session, but I will be quite sure you receive the material that you want and need. The organization of the material comes almost in packages, you might say, hopefully to be delivered at the best possible time, so have Ruburt keep his eye out for sessions in the day sometimes, at least for starters (as I have suggested also). The same kind of acceleration, however, applies in your own life, Joseph, and I will also have more to say in that regard.
Ruburt is doing well under these circumstances—I am referring to the last few days—with the help from you that he did indeed so need. This is your own individual and joint expedition. (Long pause.) Hal’s therapy is very good. But you must follow your own dictates right now. Again, remember the two of you have very strong do-it-yourself qualities, exhibited long before the sessions began.
I will indeed end the session, knowing that the session adds to Ruburt’s reassurance, and that the session alone, on its own, releases certain kinds of highly beneficial energy. My fondest regards, and my interest, or inclination toward the both of you follows you, whether, say, we have a session or not. With a bit more relaxation, however, you can have as many or as few as you want for a while, for your individual and joint energies are indeed replenished in such fashions.

Neither of you had much experience of a particular nature in dealing with the medical aspects of the world. To some extent your own do-it-yourself attitudes kept you from such experience, and as long as Ruburt lacked it, and as long as you lacked it (with much more emphasis than I’d heard Jane use as Seth in a long time), you would both still have doubts about the nature of our own work as applied to such matters—and this goes beyond the confines of our work in ways I will try to clear later.
(Once again, very forcefully:)But it was material; it was data that you needed, and did not want at the same time. You had to understand to some degree what the rest of the world had to put up with. Only by so doing could you clear the air and make your own decisions as to the course the rest of your lives would take. You are making the proper decisions now, but you needed your own complete cooperation—Ruburt in particular but you also.
