“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now I understand precisely what it is that I must do. I must take singing lessons and we must have a prayer meeting, and then you will feel that have [sic] done something. If I told you that I would sing for you, then I do believe you would all be here “en force.” I do not make any such promises, however.

Now I ask you, briefly, to imagine that you are outside this room and looking down into this room and seeing yourselves without any great emotional feeling. Simply saying to yourself, “Oh yes, there we are and there I am.” I ask you to try to pick up a slight recognition, a feeling that there is more in the room than you can see; a slight recognition of your own inner selves; a slight recognition. Even that the pussycat is more than it seems to be. I ask you to realize that although you cannot see them, your own thoughts blossom as flowers in an invisible garden. I would like you to realize that within you always is a strong kinship and understanding. A kinship with All That Is that can never he denied, and that even when you doubt most, this kinship is there for it provides the basis of your being. It is always there, and if you look for it, but gently, you will always find it.

You need not rip yourselves apart to feel this kinship. It is there with each breath that you take. Now, I would like you, in this year of yours, in your quiet moments and even in your tumultuous ones, to look gently within yourselves for this living essence. It will never betray you and it will always bring you confidence and strength even in the midst of tumult. You can depend upon it. And it will not lead you into weakness but into strength.

There are two possibilities. When the advantages no longer outweigh the disadvantages, then it is sheer stupidity to hang on by your teeth to prove that you can do so. That answers that question very nicely. I can always set up my own employment agency, but where I would send you, you would not go.
