(To Nancy) “The way you get to the unconscious mind is you have to let go of the control. Right now you’re trying things on for size before you say them. You have to get to the place where you’re not censoring yourself, where you are revealing the real, live material that you think might not be appropriate. This is the next step so we can see what’s going on under the surface. Right now you’ve got it so controlled we can’t see the real live stuff, so we can’t push things further. We don’t know what the truth is underneath that. And there are layers. So if you are having harsh thoughts, let’s say, in relation to other people, that may be the way it comes out, but that is just stage one. It’s not the bottommost truth. Your fear of going into that territory is what’s preventing you from getting deeper into the real material. You’re so afraid of coming out in an inappropriate way, or saying something that might offend someone that you’re stopping yourself all together. There are two foundations of this work. One is life is meant to work, and if your life does not appear to be working, there are one or more limiting decisions distorting your experience of reality. And the other is underneath people’s defense systems, the only thing that really exists between people is love. People have a number of different defense systems which effect how they come across to others, where they may be, for example, rather prickly. Or they may say things that come out negatively toward someone. But that’s not the bottommost truth. It’s part of the defense system. But we get under that to the real self.
The reason I can dig underneath the surface of what appears to be negative material that’s showing up on the surface, is because I know that when you get underneath it, it’s always positive — always. And I have seen that prove itself over and over again in the context of this work.”
