He Speaks. Today, to Me.

"Your whole civilization is immersed with the idea that the way to solve a problem – any problem, private or worldwide – is to exaggerate it, see its worst projection; and this, then, is supposed to make you take proper action. The approach unfortunately solves no problems, and only compounds them whether the nation is trying to solve problems of energy … or whether an individual is trying to overcome a dilemma.

“When you become so worried, of course, you concentrate even further on the problem – how bad is it, and what will happen if it becomes worse in the future.

“The belief is that if you frighten yourself badly enough through imagined projections and imagination, you will be frightened enough to change – but the nation or individual following that method does not change for the better, but compounds the original condition, concentrates upon it until it looms larger than before …” --Seth, The Personal Sessions
