At the same time, you both should — and do — try to turn your minds in other directions, so that the periods do not linger. [...]

[...] It worked out okay, yet it reflected my state of mind often these days — my fears, probably on a lot of subjects.

[...] It develops that another speaker, thought not available, may, or has, change[d] his mind.

[...] So this pattern should not be applied in your minds and projected.

[...] (Long pause.)There are some family problems on his mind. [...]

I do not mind the cat, but I do not like fleas ... [...]

[...] In about a half hour the same mental activity returned, and, finding himself struck by this, Ruburt mentioned the episode to Joseph and again cast it from his mind.

[...] been so much in Ruburt’s mind. [...]

[...] More is involved than the question: Did he perceive his information directly from the minds of his friends, or from the letter itself, which had already been mailed, of course, and was on its way to Ruburt at the time?

Even the conscious mind contains much more information about the structure of events than you realize you possess. [...]

[...] On another level, because the ape was in the library, compassionate and understanding, Ruburt was seeing symbolically the force of his own physical nature, quite at home with itself, and at home in the psychic library of the mind.

[...] In his own way however Ruburt began a shaman’s journey for himself, letting the psyche’s images become alive, and the inner workings of the mind made more obvious.

[...] The negative image, dashed then, gave forth the symbolized image that he had been using in his mind. [...]

[...] In terms perhaps difficult to describe the muscles run through the mind’s journeys, and speak out their own questions, even as the soul speaks out its questions through the flesh. [...]

It is as if, now, the mental atmosphere was clearer—and you would find ideas flowing into your mind in those hours also, particularly with that playfully, now, in mind. [...]

[...] Particularly since the minds of men and women (with humor)—are not so focused upon the physical evidence of the world, so that in a strange fashion the “burden” of that evidence is less, and there is some built-in advantage. [...]

[...] As adults they can form a kind of understanding parent in their own mind, until they learn how to be sympathetic to their own behavior, and until they realize that life itself is an expression—not a repression. [...]

(Long pause at 4:40.) Comments for Ruburt: today’s additional motion further shows his improvements as body and mind both throw off old shackles of repression. [...]

[...] I’ve managed to keep my mind off the whole situation for considerable periods, though occasionally the subject returns and I catch myself thinking about it. [...]

–suddenly burst forth, have long been hiding in the personal subconscious, and are indeed unfortunate creations of a psychotic mind. There are none of these in Ruburt’s subconscious mind.

[...] It originates instead in the energy of the entity and inner self, and is directed by means of the inner senses, outward so to speak, through the deeper layers of the individual subconscious mind, then through the outer or personal layers.

[...] I suggest that this material be sent with letters or other portions of the material, to whatever sources you have in mind. [...]

There is no invasion of Ruburt’s mind or subconscious on my part. [...]

[...] You spoke in your dreams and later wrote down the alphabets—and your knowledge and your intellect have always been fired, sharpened, propelled by the great inner reality from which your minds emerged.

One mind alone could not come into being from chance alone; one thought could not leap from an infinite number of nerve ends, if matter itself was not initially alive with consciousness, packed with the intent to be. [...]

The perspective from which you watch world events is vital, and it is true that communication now brings to the conscious mind a far greater barrage than before. [...]

[...] I remarked that most of our world’s problems seem to result from Framework-1 thinking, that our species is so steeped in such conscious-mind behavior—locally, nationally, and worldwide—that there seems little chance of our ever breaking out of that iron pattern. [...]

[...] The camouflage pattern world is formed by the mind, and I am using this now in its true term as a part of the inner world. Energy is received by the mind through the inner senses and transformed by use of mental enzymes into camouflage patterns.

[...] I have said that the mind is a part of the inner world, but you have access to your own minds which you ignore, and this access would lead you inevitably to the truths about the physical world. [...]

[...] The thinking mind, or I had better say the thinking brain, does not know. [...]

As breathing is carried on in a manner that seems automatic to the conscious mind, so this important function of transforming the vitality of the universe into pattern units also seems to be carried on automatically. [...]

Now, in physical terms it may take some time before your conscious mind accepts or recognizes a diagnosis given in a dream. [...]

The enlightened conscious mind is always alert for such messages. [...]

[...] When you operate within it you should indeed experience it completely, in as many phases as possible, and be it to a much greater degree than is usually achieved, the conscious mind using itself then in experience, and thus knowing itself. [...]

It has often been said that the subconscious has a generalized focus, but the subconscious and inner senses have as strong and vital and intensified a focus as the focus of the conscious mind. [...]

[...] He should take a brisk walk, and turn his mind into some innocent diversion, play of a sort. [...]

Ruburt’s work with the contents of the mind, for example, is barely started, and I will include his exercises in my book (amused)—while giving him full credit, of course. [...]

[...] Instead, all of those who read the books change themselves to some extent, look upon reality in a different way, and extend the frontiers of the private mind.

[...] So is the man who wrote the book (Powers of Mind)—Adam Smith—interpreting in the only way he could for others who will later be led to read other books—that is, he helps awaken hunger.

(Seth mentioned Powers of Mind here, I think, because I got mad just before the session when I found a full-page ad for it in yesterday’s [Sunday’s] New York Times Book Section. [...]

[...] And there’s more to come on the three classifications of man that Seth gave in that earlier session … And stuff on the lands of the mind, I think, which leads to our ancient civilizations and how they’re embedded in our minds now …”

[...] With the conscious mind as director, there is no reason why much of this knowledge cannot become normally and naturally available. [...]

[...] A true healing, or health profession, would deal intimately with the powers of the psyche in healing the body, and with the interrelationship among the desires, beliefs, and activities of the conscious mind and its effects upon the cellular behavior.

You think because you come here that you are quite avant-garde and very with it and open-minded, indeed. There are people that you would not share your living room with who do not consider themselves avant-garde or open-minded, who do not understand concepts and are not equipped to intellectualize, but people who feel their own feelings with exaltation and joy and recognize their own identities because of this, and who are, therefore, open to the feelings of others and able to relate to them. [...]

[...] And do not have such a hang up over what I know you have in mind. [...]

(Maggie explained the Mind Control class she attended.)

[...] Once you have accepted your feelings then refuse to let the balance of your mind be upset by such disturbances even though you recognize them. [...]

[...] Unhinge your mind. Think of your mind as a door. [...]

[...] You will not progress individually or as a race until you realize that you form your own physical reality from your thoughts and feelings, and that you can manipulate matter through you mind because your mind creates it. [...]

[...] So, in your mind, step aside a few more steps, give yourself the suggestion that you will perceive the situation from another perspective. [...]

[...] Besides this, of course, my own moods, speculations, joys and sorrows have spun their earthly web through my mind on such days. [...]

[...] Seth must use my voice to speak and my life as reference, and certainly the contents of my mind are vastly expanded as a result of the sessions. [...]

But however we attempt to define Seth’s reality, I’m convinced of one thing by now: He is delivering to our conscious minds our deepest unconscious knowledge about ourselves, the world, the universe, and the source of Being Itself. [...]

[...] At that point I suddenly recognized Seth “around the edges” of my mind. [...]

[...] This should be kept in mind whenever we discuss beliefs that are specifically sexually oriented.

(Long pause.) In this session, again I accelerate those coordinates that encourage well-being and peace of body and mind. [...]

If that alone is kept in mind almost immediate improvement can be effected. [...]

Form a clear picture in your mind. [...]

[...] My mind is not a young woman’s mind. [...] I am not a father image of Ruburt’s, nor am I the male figure that lurks in the back of the female mind. [...]

[...] But all psychologists aren’t so narrow-minded and intellectually rigid. [...]

“The past exists as a series of electromagnetic connections held in the physical brain and in the nonphysical mind. [...]

“The future consists of a series of electromagnetic connections in the mind and brain also, and this is the only reality that you are justified in giving the present.

[...] To my mind, our situation has steadily deteriorated. [...]

(I still think that paper is a very revealing one, for it contains several important clues that we should keep always in mind, but often do not. [...]

Your minds become accustomed to a very high quality of conceptual thought, for example. [...]

We will be dealing with Ruburt’s beliefs, of course, with the psyche and the books, and the other furniture of the mind that seems so obvious, but I hope to teach you to transform those issues into something else. [...]
