Now. If you decide to devote this time, energy and concentration to these endeavors consistently, then you should indeed meet with success. Time is necessary, for certain portions of your personality must be given the opportunity to catch up with other portions. You have been doing very well. The breather and the change of environment is good for you just now. This is a rather a weighty endeavor, therefore you should indeed realize what it requires of you. If you are willing then you shall do well, for the abilities are indeed there, and you can learn to use them.

In this respect you and Ferd are both involved in a mutual learning process and development of abilities. Continued endeavor will result in benefits for you both. He has recently left our area of existence for another, and he has not yet sufficiently learned to operate within the new set of conditions. This is a fairly normal state of affairs.

Now. Perhaps it is unfortunate, and perhaps it is not, but if you are to become involved to any important degree in this particular kind of endeavor, then you must be willing to devote time, energy and concentration to that work.

[...] In other words, if you tie your psychic endeavors with your love of art there will be no difficulties. Simply the knowledge that the psychic endeavors will help your creativity should be a sufficient impetus.

I was speaking of psychic endeavors involving projection. Endeavors which you felt involved a greater production or use, rather, of energy. [...]

However, dedicated psychic exploration of such a nature always brings with it increased intuitional powers, and new energy and a spiritual understanding that can be used then in any creative endeavor. [...]

[...] But Ruburt may as well now continue with this heroic endeavor, although I fear that it will cost us this session. It would perhaps have been more convenient if the effort had been started on other than a session night, but in any case I expect to see the endeavor succeed, and certainly do not mind missing a session for this purpose.

[...] We will endeavor to continue speaking of some matters discussed in our previous session. [...]

[...] And yet by work, I mean a joyful endeavor, a spontaneous endeavor. [...]

[...] I have been around in a few of your endeavors (Rochelle K.). [...]

(There was a comment about Seth’s statement, as to how he had been around in a few of Rochelle’s endeavors. [...]

[...] The joint endeavor is of course important—and there will be other joint endeavors of various kinds. [...]

The stresses and strains also create the unbalances that initiate creative endeavor. On Ruburt’s part the early religious experiences also initiated the deep quest for inner knowledge that is behind all creative endeavor, and that served as an impetus.

[...] The fear of the unknown, mentioned earlier, is not a fear of psychic phenomena, nor of psychic endeavor. [...]

His problem is precisely this: the need and ability to throw himself whole-heartedly and spontaneously into a creative endeavor, and the fear of doing so.

[...] It is with this chant always that we begin our endeavors in our space. [...] We have always been here, in your terms, as you have always been in other places and other times, and there is a great familiarity and wonder on our part that you are still involved in these endeavors which were begun in your terms so many centuries ago, and in ways that you cannot now presently comprehend. [...]

Instead Ruburt is involved in our endeavor, and his daily life entwined in the search that fiction cannot approach. This endeavor, involving you both so deeply, all also lead you toward the full development of your own abilities. [...]

[...] 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.

[...] If you wonder, you will be financially comfortable, but the energy now being gathered together, and focused will be felt in all your endeavors. [...]

Had the same time and effort been given then to the kind of endeavors he is now planning, as was given to the selection of a job, there would have been no further difficulty.

[...] (In ESP.) This sort of endeavor cannot be stressed too highly as an antidote to all symptoms. [...]

The endeavor should be begun realistically. [...]

[...] In your creative endeavors, however, each of you go ahead, and you, Joseph, particularly with Nebene now.

If you think of Ruburt’s normal flexibility as a creative endeavor, then automatically and easily, Ruburt first of all, and you, will find your creative abilities coming to the fore in that direction, bringing about results that are far quicker, easier, and executed in such a manner that Framework 2 adds immeasurably to that area of your lives.

The same sort of situation operates in millions of families, and the rewards that you gave each other for your creative endeavors were excellent, and worked beautifully.

[...] So then his creative endeavors not only had to bring in money, but they had to be good, moral, responsible, for they were becoming part of a body of work.

[...] This is why I did not give my name to the initial endeavors, so that I could cast them adrift. Nevertheless, they represented a necessary beginning in these endeavors, and a beginning for which no apology is needed on your part or on mine.

I will endeavor, because of your reactions, not to discuss aspects of your practical existence, though you should be told that regardless such discussions are to your benefit. [...]

[...] Take heart, however, from the fact that you are both in excellent overall condition, for this is very important in all your endeavors.

[...] The only thing that’s suffered has been work on Mass Events, but now I’m gradually moving back into that endeavor also.

In Framework 1 you receive certain rewards for ordinary endeavors. [...]

[...] Your creative endeavors have brought you good rewards (long pause) in more areas than you realize, but part of your account was in an ordinary savings structure so that you were, in those areas, somewhat restricted—and restricted by Framework 1’s largely trial-and-error framework. [...]

[...] Your loving endeavors toward him have indeed helped, but until very recently you also fell into the same trap.

[...] To some extent this also applies to you in your own endeavors. [...]

[...] You do not realize that you could have solved the problems and met the challenges adequately, but without the satisfaction of strong creative endeavor. [...]

[...] I thought there were many more valuable kinds of experiences to be had in many kinds of healthier, more creative endeavors, instead of letting the symptoms interfere with Jane’s attempts to perform such creative endeavors.

In his prayer periods emphasize that his full attention can go into his work and creative endeavors. [...]

[...] Gifted young men of Nearing’s period had to some extent then two lines of endeavor. [...]

[...] For all of that, such endeavors, he felt, could not really be brought to any clear resolution in a clear-cut, literally perceived fashion.

[...] And in his own fashion, he passed on some energy to Ruburt as a gift to help him in that endeavor. [...]

[...] There is a continuity that follows through all existences, and shows itself in the endeavors and creations of the individuals involved.

[...] I will always help him in such endeavors.

These abilities have their counterparts to some extent in any creative endeavor. [...]

[...] Such beliefs make any human endeavor appear futile. [...]

[...] It is much better if you can imagine this endeavor more in the light of children’s play, in fact, rather than think of it as a deadly serious adult pursuit.

[...] One of the paintings you did many years ago clearly foreshadowed the development of your psychic endeavors. [...]

Such work does not only necessitate the choosing of one individual, but is also an endeavor in which many other elements are taken into consideration. [...]

[...] Naturally this is brought about by my own reactions to whatever the trigger happens to be, but still “Unknown,” and other creative endeavors have often been involved, when conflicts between what I think of as useful creative work run into doing things like shoveling snow, or other household items that I seem to think of as “chores.” [...]
