[...] Ruburt picked up on James’s world view, however, as in your terms at least it “existed” perhaps 10 years ago.⁶ Then, in his mind, James playfully thought of a book that he would write were he “living,” called The Varieties of Religious States — an altered version of a book he wrote in life.

[...] The same thing applies in more mundane endeavors in ordinary life. [...]

Now it’s later and he’s just sort of sitting there and he’s drinking and they’re in the kitchen and she threw something—and she says now she’d rather he (pause) was really full of life again like he was… Rather than like an old man…

[...] And she’s still full of life and he should be too.

[...] It was partially a distorted, unconscious understanding of this that led Ruburt to the exaggerated projection of that restrictive role to those other areas of your life.

Because of this role, adopted rather early on both of your parts in your married life, and because of his dim, distorted and hidden perception of it, he was vastly astonished at your permissive attitude when our sessions began.

[...] Opening up your consciousness to previously denied messages would bring you in direct contact with other life-forms on your planet in a way that you have formerly denied yourselves. [...]

(Another one-minute pause.) Give us a moment … The “unknown” reality sustains you and the web of life as you understand it. [...]

In his daily life however, as I have told him in the past, the yoga exercises should be continued. [...] As a part of his daily life they will facilitate the development of his abilities, and therefore help in our sessions.

[...] That material, however, is “excellent medicine,” and can indeed be life-saving (intently). It is indeed unfortunate that those beliefs that show themselves so simply and effectively in nature seem so mysterious to the usual line of official consciousness.

[...] Your subjective life is now interpreted through the specialized state of consciousness that you call the waking one, in which you recognize as real only experience that falls within certain space and time coordinates. [...]

The entire program, all of the suggestions, must automatically become a part of Ruburt’s life. [...]

[...] This was accepted originally in this life, but also for other reasons from the past, from his mother.

[...] Such a person, however, walking through the forest, also felt that he or she was also a portion of the inner life of each rock or tree, materialized. [...]

[...] To back down now would result not only in business failure, but in a personal failure that would plague you for the rest of your life.

No derogatory remark is meant, but he has failed in an important aspect of personal life; and if you respectfully ask that I shut up, I will do so.

While I admit that many people will not agree with me (smile), I know from experience that most individuals do not choose one “happy” life after another, always ensconced in a capable body, endowed by nature or heritage with all of the gifts most people seem to think they desire.

[...] In Iran, for instance, present-day Islamic law reaches into and defines acceptable and nonacceptable behavior in every facet of individual and mass life—from the most explicitly sexual to that with the broadest social and national implications. [...]

[...] But overall that way of life, to some extent has suited you both.

[...] You tried to give expression to a natural desire to meet other people who were seriously involved with matters that concern the soul, the body, and the political and cultural life of man—for those are your concerns also.
