His potential for commitment is truly powerful. He is committed to you for example, in this way. He is being overly cautious, realizing the strength of his commitments. He makes few of them. It has been all or nothing until this point.
Here he has tried to hold back, and yet not hold back. One very large portion of the personality is totally committed to our endeavors. Another portion has so far withheld complete commitment, though the rejection seems greater by contrast. In others the rejection would come close to commitment, but for him this is not enough.
A definite strain therefore developed, particularly painful since it involved his work also, to which he has always been strongly committed. He recognized the value of our endeavors to his work. On the other hand he still was not completely (underlined) committed, and therefore mistrusted.

(Pause.) Ruburt has only now begun to take those necessary steps that lead to total commitment. His personality is so constructed that he cannot give time, without conflict, to any matter to which he is not totally committed, or to any matter about which he has any serious doubt.
Now surely to our friend Philip, Ruburt has certainly appeared committed enough to our ventures. He has not been totally committed, however, and as you know, wholeheartedly accepted my august presence.

I will tell you this (pause, eyes open):Neither of you realize as yet the full extent of Ruburt’s inner change of mind, his commitment now to our work, the commitment of his abilities to these matters for his lifetime.
[...]
One point: Ruburt’s whole personality did indeed protect itself, for unless it were integrated and fully committed it would not have the energy to sustain the activities with which it will now be involved.
[...]
As you suspected, this is an inevitable development, if he did give full commitment, which he has now done.

If you commit suicide, however, your choices for this life are over.
(3:54.) It is futile to tell such a person that he or she can not, or must not, commit suicide — and indeed, such a procedure can be quite dangerous, hardening the person’s leaning toward a death decision.

[...]
In a certain sense, the energy of each individual does keep the world going, and to commit suicide is to refuse a basic, cooperative venture.

Faith and belief in an idea implies some commitment. Commitment is dependent upon expectation. He who does not have expectations along certain lines will not commit himself, and will not achieve; in the particular instance he will not give enough of himself, and he will not receive, except in proportion to what he gives.
You can afford to be more freely committed.

The commitment to my book will make a difference.

– Session 862, June 25, 1979 8:37 P.M. Monday
Religious laws deal with sin, whether or not a crime is committed (pause), and religious concepts usually take it for granted that the individual is guilty until proven innocent. And if you have not committed a crime in fact, then you have at least sinned in your heart — for which, of course, you must be punished.
[...]
[...]
Your misunderstandings, your crimes, and your atrocities, real as they are, are seldom committed out of any intent to be evil, but because of severe misinterpretations about the nature of good, and the means that can be taken toward its actualization.

There can be no holding back of commitment, involvement, or ability in one aspect of your lives but it will be reflected in others, that is in other aspects where you want growth.

In your society, however, identity is so related to sexual stereotypes that few people know themselves well enough to understand the nature of love, and to make any such commitments.

Many people who commit suicide feel to the contrary that they are no longer needed, or in fact that their very existence stands in the way of other people’s happiness.

First of all, let me make it clear that no one is “damned” for committing suicide.

However—give us a moment—errors can also be used as challenges and those of you who are afraid to commit errors, or who are too afraid to face challenges, and therefore, never look upon an error as a deep or dark thing forever beyond repair, for from it challenges spring. And oftentimes, if an error is committed, it is the same thing as a physical symptom might be.
[...]
[...]
You may instead, however, commit an error so that you are suddenly brought up short as you say, “Why did I do this thing which is so unlike myself?” In that case, the error or the action is the same thing as a symptom for it makes you question your own motives and look into your own spirit.
