Your brother Stephen must have faith in his own abilities, for these represent his (underlined) freedom and eventual success.

[...] The enzyme part of our little equation permits vitality to operate successfully under diverse mental and physical situations and forms the basis for each particular system of existence.

[...] We no longer took for granted the normal day with its succession of moments. [...]

(This is the first time during the envelope experiments that the same object was used twice in succession. [...]

(The idea in using the same object a second time in succession was to see whether Seth would come up with the same, or similar, impressions, both times. [...]

(Pause.) If such an individual can convince himself or herself that somehow the entire affair is more in the nature of a game, then you can have at times some success, because in a game the conscious mind is willing to make allowances, and to “pretend.” [...]

[...] (Pause.) And here we do find abilities shown, ignored and misused through a succession of lives. [...]

[...] Until our hypothetical friends met each other at the corner grocery, it seemed that all of their efforts and searches brought no success. [...]

[...] If the projection is a success you will instantly lose contact consciously with the physical body. [...]

Projection from a dream state is something else again, therefore, and when it is executed successfully then you have a fine example of the self as it changes the focus of its own awareness. [...]

This relationship has gone on through three successive lives as far as Roarck and his friend is concerned. [...]

[...] And—belief or no—I judged the success of the changes by the fact that my worries disappeared as soon as they were completed.

[...] I’ve managed to turn my thoughts away from such worries rather successfully lately, yet when they do return they can’t but help cause concern, so conditioned are we toward anything unusual about the body’s behavior representing a state of illness or unease. [...]
