[...] I figured she needed the rest after the bouts of infection.

[...] In your terms, the conditions will right themselves, with the eye muscles being both more flexible and more elastic as needed.

Unfortunately, in your society you need every good suggestion you can get, to offset fears and negative conditioning. Ruburt needs time to give himself a few suggestions in the morning, to start up his journal again, even to paint if he wants in a framework in which he allows himself that much freedom. [...]

A clear, uncluttered, bright, and powerful consciousness needs frequent rest periods if its efficiency is to be maintained, and if it is to correctly interpret reality. [...]

[...] In certain afternoon hours consciousness is lowered, and needs refreshment that is instead denied.

(Also after supper it developed that Miss Callahan, the retired school teacher who lives in the front apartment on our floor, had evidently had an attack of some kind and was in urgent need of help. [...]

[...] If you had helped tonight, you would not have felt the need to turn your emotions inward against yourself in a self-destructive manner.

[...] The happy man has no need for such a visit. [...]

Now: Under such enforced conditions, you are literally facing egotistical consciousness with its own death in an encounter that need not occur — and while the physical body is fighting for its own life and vitality. [...]

[...] So patient and therapist share the belief that the conscious mind does not have easy access to the needed knowledge.

Worst of all, there is no need for it. [...]

[...] The individual who takes it for granted that he is worthwhile does not need to belabor the point. [...] In many areas of your own life, those in which you are satisfied, you need make no effort. [...]

[...] He will not need to prove himself, so it will be easier for him to accept contemporaries with fairness.

[...] The hypnotist, or witch doctor, or therapist, then immediately inserts the beliefs he thinks the subject needs.

[...] This, or any such too-intense effort will tend to make additional drains upon needed energy.

[...] The need for the ulcer was aggravated in the fairly recent past, but the personality is basically flexible enough so that adjustments can be made.

There will also be suggestions given as to needed adjustments on the part of the personality during his business hours. [...]

If I am, myself, subdued this evening in contrast with my activities in our last session, it is only because I would give you both a needed rest. [...]

Were I only his personality’s method of gaining revelationary knowledge (pause), then he should be content with that, recognizing his need of me in that endeavor. [...] Now there is a need on my part also. [...]

[...] The deepest needs and desires of the personality had to be aroused and deeply involved in an endeavor that would allow the personality to use its full strength in a focused and emotionally intense manner.

Neither of you realize the strength of the abilities as yet, and the need for forging a strong personality who could learn to handle them wisely, and hold its own while using them. [...]

(9:54.) You change what needs to be changed in whatever way occurs to you, then — by directing the body’s energy in that direction, by entering the flesh and bringing certain portions together that need this adjustment, by manipulating areas of the spine. [...]

(No session was held Monday, since Jane needed to rest. [...]

[...] There is no need to go deeply into any of these beyond this point, because ordinarily you will not be involved with them, and they lead into realities that have little reference to your own. [...]

[...] The level is one where every bit of preventative protection is needed in a world where people constantly need insurance, preventative medicine, and so forth – again, all issues dealt with in the book. [...]

[...] He does need that reassurance now. [...]

[...] The material need not be presented in one way only, as I have told you in the past.

[...] (Smile; pause.) It need not worry. [...]

[...] He need not worry. [...]

[...] He needs to be quieted first through word and caresses. [...]

[...] It needs to be lovingly protected; but lovingly, not hindered nor fought nor held down.

[...] There is a need for the spontaneous self to understand the purposes of the conscientious self also.

[...] The cause, whatever it is, can then cover any number of crimes, and no particular individual need bear the blame alone. [...]

[...] I am aware that the death penalty often seems to be a practical solution — and indeed many murderers want to die, and are caught because of their need for punishment. [...]

[...] The book sessions will cover everything that needs to be covered.

[...] Often as a result of the conflict between the need for obedient behavior toward adults, and the need for independent growth and activity that might well be judged as rebellious by the elders.

[...] Ruburt does need some kind of class or such activity, but he has grown frightened. [...]

[...] Mystic enlightenment does not see an enemy, however, and there is no need for arrogance, attack, or self-justification.

(10:13.) Ruburt correctly perceived the great need for a zest and excitement in this woman’s life, for initiative. [...]

Ruburt explained, after hearing about the automatic communications, that these were simply repressed elements of the subconscious finding needed outlet. [...]

[...] Even the animals seek stimuli and feel a zest for existence; so in this way Dineen, in a misguided manner, is still giving expression to a definite need of her being.

[...] Seth does respond to emotional charges; these charges we have learned need not stem from Jane or myself or a friend; they can be related to a total stranger and still be detected. [...]

[...] There is no need therefore for any complicated arrangements calculated to insure agreement between persons as to location in space.

[...] The difference is mainly that they need not be perceived by others.

[...] Nevertheless it is one that has many implications, for which you need more background. [...]

[...] He needs it badly, and I have a note for Miss Taylor: it will hurt Jim Crosson badly if he does not have a part in the program. He needs to feel, particularly after retirement, that he is looked up to and needed, and can hold his own and attract an audience.

This does not mean that either of you need travel about in a constant flurry of lectures. [...]

Again: Ruburt will address the group many times throughout the years, and so may I. (Humorously.) Ruburt and I together would need a full program.

[...] And when you understand what it is trying to say, and if you make an effort to do what is needed, the symptoms are no longer needed as a method of communication. [...]

[...] You want comfort of a certain kind, and you will not ask it of your wife.You feel, again,that you should not need comfort, that she will interpret such a need either as weakness or that she will become frightened. [...]

[...] Now the comfort was needed to begin with so that you could make up for other things that you felt you did not have, and to help you cope with problems, as you are aware. [...]

“Mary shows us the large sketch papers in an open-air restaurant — a setting where physical needs are satisfied in public. The open air specifies this public aspect, meaning that Mary’s ideas are connected with social values wanting her needs satisfied in a socially acceptable public fashion. [...]

[...] I reminded Jane that I think it’s an excellent one, and that I want to type copies for us of the material between 9:15 and 9:36, wherein Seth explains that the intellect needs to realize that it doesn’t have to go it alone, that it is supported and aided by other portions of the self. [...]

First of all, if you realize that the intellect itself is a part of nature, a part of the natural person, a part of magical processes, then you need not overstrain it, force it to feel isolated, or put it in a position in which paranoid tendencies develop. [...]

You needed this background, for I want to build up the atmosphere in which this magical approach can be comprehended. [...]

[...] I knew that all of these positive goals are worked out in Framework 2, regardless of their seeming complexity, and that they can then show themselves in Framework 1. I have the simple, profound faith that everything I desire in life can come to me from the miraculous workings of Framework 2. I do not need to be concerned with details of any kind, knowing that Framework 2 possesses the infinite creative capacity to handle and produce everything I can possibly ask of it. [...]
