[...] Before he read the book the idea would not have occurred to him in that context.

[...] You would also realize that you were not down there anymore.

[...] You would be equally foolish to pretend that you were there, or to go about with a raincoat and umbrella underneath the clear highland skies and warm sun.

[...] They decided they had it reinserted far enough so that it would work. Jane would have to wait to see if the urine began flowing, though. [...]

[...] In times of drought he would dream of the location of water. In times of famine he would dream of the location of food. [...] He would not waste time in the trial-and-error procedures that you now take for granted. [...]

[...] There are many dimensions that are as physical, so to speak, as your own world, but if you are not focused in them you would not at all be aware of their existence, but perceive only empty space.

[...] Jane said she thought Seth would say something to the effect that on this plane we use ideas for protection from a true reality that might be too much for us to handle. [...]

They represent a more or less true account of the nature of your camouflage universe, but if they are understood as being limited to your camouflage environment only, then your scientists would not attempt to use them as yardsticks to measure other universes.

[...] Without any such use no existence would be possible. [...]

[...] You may reach them in a space vehicle, but the quantitative difference again is so large that it almost turns into a different value, and a trip by camouflage vehicle would certainly not be the most efficient way to make such a journey, by any means.

If man paid more attention to his own subjective behavior, to those feelings of identification with nature that persistently arise, then half of the dictates of both the evolutionists and the creationists would automatically fall away, for they would appear nonsensical.⁴ It is not a matter of outlining a whole new series of methods that will allow you to increase your psychic abilities, or to remember your dreams, or to perform out-of-body gymnastics.

[...] I was getting the rather odd impression that to some extent his material this evening would grow out of our experience with the raccoon, even if he didn’t mention it.)

I would like to explain more clearly a few ideas that came to Ruburt concerning certain kinds of correspondents, and to explain more clearly some important issues regarding his own situation that also began to come into his mind. [...]

(8:43.) In that framework it almost seems as if the most natural wish would be the wish to live one life for some kind of eternal duration. [...]

[...] Still, Ruburt was uneasy that the woman would accept the situation so calmly. [...]

[...] I said that much of what we talked about would be considered the normal hassles in life, but that we had put negative connotations on those things and ignored the positive. [...]

Often Ruburt has not been in touch with his own feelings, but would try to intellectualize many away. [...]

[...] One: She transferred stuff about excommunication into the loss of companionship — that nobody would want anything to do with you if you crossed them up. [...]

([Rob:] “Where would the records be?”)

[...] He would make no concessions. [...]

[...] James had been thought of, but Ruburt certainly had no idea he would, or could, possibly write a book on painting.

The peace of mind will enrich his creative abilities—and that will automatically minimize whatever fears he has that physical activity would cut down on his creativity.

[...] This is an important point, and Ruburt would not have let me speak about it earlier. [...]

—but you made some leeway with Ruburt in your last remarks (which I’ve forgotten as I type this) and I would like him to examine his normal habits in the light of what I said about his table and arrangements. [...]

(“Well, it would be nice.”)

I would prefer that you not ask me questions about what I am going to say.

(Jane said the above is the kind of material she would have blocked in earlier sessions as soon as she felt it coming up, although occasionally she has allowed it to come through. [...]

(Jane now emphasized that where she would have “stiffened up” earlier, she now feels it foolish to let the fear of failure block what might be good material. [...]

(I planned no envelope test for this session, thinking that the test material on the Gallaghers in Puerto Rico, and on Dr. Instream, would be enough for one session. [...]

First however I would like to speak briefly about Ruburt’s attempts at telepathy with Philip last evening. [...]
