“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The ache in Ruburt’s shoulder for example was an indication of nervousness; although consciously he was not bothered, unconsciously he knew that your friend would not arrive on time, and this disturbed him to some degree.

The ache was the physical and nervous construction of his subconscious irritation. I would like to make another note, and I believe I may have mentioned this. I know Ruburt at one time or another was aware of it. I have nothing against Ruburt’s reading of the material of course. I strongly suggest, however, that he does not in the future read the material on the night of a session. It only makes him apprehensive and nervous.

This also aggravated the ache in his shoulder. The help I need from you, Ruburt, is on another level entirely. I do not want you to become overly involved with the material, which is why it has worked out so that Joseph does the recording.

(Break at 11:05. Jane was dissociated as usual. The ache in her shoulder had let up somewhat, but she was not too surprised now to develop a pain in a foot. During break she hopped about until it too eased up. Discussing distortions during break, we recalled that once or twice Seth had mentioned using the deep trance state. Neither of us cared much for the idea. Jane resumed at 11:12.)

[...] If parents believe that the body is somehow an inferior vehicle for the spirit, or if they simply view the body as unreliable or weak and vulnerable, then children will at an early age begin to consider good health as a rarity, and learn to take depression, poor spirits, and bodily aches and pains to be a natural, normal condition of life.

(Since Seth gave us the material on therapeutic dreams last Wednesday, I began suggesting that I would experience one, as I was in a bad mood generally speaking and had been for a week; also I felt poorly with aches and pains etc.; nothing serious but annoying.

[...] Not that I wanted Jane to be magically transformed into a 25-year-old again—just that I ached to see a resurgence of that uninhibited, unplanned joy of motion for its own sake. [...]

(After I got up and started painting, she began to experience another series of very uncomfortable waves of panic in her sleep, combined with her aching body. [...]

(Subsequently, Jane several times was seized with a strong ache in her lower right jaw. [...]

[...] We learned that her sinuses were involved in her jaw ache, and Bill Macdonnel, but also that she was strongly concerned about the acceptance of Rich Bed by Eleanor Friede of Macmillan. [...]

[...] She was reminded of it because of a slight ache, incurred when she held her arm over her head for an extended period of time.

[...] Pretend then that you possessed within yourself the knowledge, the sight, of all the world’s masterpieces in sculpture and art, that they throbbed and pulsed as realities within you, but that you had no physical apparatus, no knowledge of how to achieve it; that there was neither rock, nor pigment, nor source of any of these, and you ached with the yearning to produce them—and this, on an infinitesimally small scale, will perhaps give you, as an artist, some idea of the agony and the impetus that was felt.

[...] And to some extent through muscular action, even in dreams such aggressions find physical outlet also, and save you quite a few aches and pains, by the way.

[...] The aching and pain has disappeared, and the soreness is beginning to disappear.

“Several aches or whatever in various parts of my body came and vanished as I used this approach … where before that sort of thing used to last longer. [...]

[...] At the same time my heels ached and stung.

[...] The visit was quite enjoyable, and it marked the first time in days that I’d forgotten my aches and pains, as I realized when it was all over. [...]

[...] The finger began to ache as she sat with it in her lap as we congregated at the kitchen table. [...]

[...] My writing hand ached.)

He has an ache in his right arm. [...]

[...] I savored the experience now because I felt at a deep peace and my body was almost free of aches and pains. [...]

[...] I feel caught in contradictions—for if Jane’s new feelings in her hips and legs are signs of new muscular activity, as she thinks, and as Frank Longwell agrees, that’s good news; yet those same feelings, her acute and prolonged bodily discomfort, her aches and pains, have caused her to become almost totally inactive. [...]

[...] As for myself, I can state that by the time break arrived my right hand and arm ached all the way up to my shoulder.

[...] I’d finally decided that the ache wasn’t because I’d been lifting her physically—all 82 pounds of her—but because of the medical bills we’d received today. [...]
