“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(To Jason.) And also because of a deep feeling of goodness and strength and courage over here, but I do not want you to distort what you are getting either. I do not want you to interpret it so strongly along certain lines. It is always when you think that you are most right that you can fall into difficulties. I believe you know this and now I will interpret your dream for it has to do with religion.

Now, the television screen represented your abilities—it transmitted the messages. In the dream you could not turn it off, and you put up a shield. Underneath you are frightened that these abilities will lead you along the paths that you have lead, that despite all your deliberations you will lead to another religion signified by the Buddha. And you are tempted at times to close these off for that reason, but you are also afraid that you have gone so far so quickly that the abilities cannot be closed off, and you cannot close the channel. You are also wondering what thing can come through the channels that you have not anticipated. You are strongly inclined, as you know, toward mystical matters. At the same time, because of your background, you also distrust mystical matters to some extent. You do not want them to pop up again in new guises.

You said earlier you were still learning and searching, and I am simply telling you to continue to do so and to make sure that you also search those attitudes of yours of which you are most certain. This is the portion, you see, that can so easily escape your examination. You are angry at what you have done to yourself because in a past life you had much to do with the organization that you do not now like. There is nothing of guilt in this. I am not telling you to feel guilty for the past. I am simply trying to explain to you those inner motives that also operate. What you feel is legitimate but it is also charged heavily because of your own past existence—so, if I am warning you, I am simply warning you gently. And I am smiling. I am trying to get these muscles to smile so when you listen to the recording, and if the voice sounds harsh, then remember that the mechanics are not simple either.

(After break to Jason.) I’m telling you what I think it is most important that you know this evening. You relate to other people, as you know, and they respond to your emotional warmth. You are good, therefore, in reading for others for this reason. You are strong, emotionally. For the same reason, however, watch your material for you will often emotionally read into it what is not there. Now, I am speaking in terms of theories. You can trust your intuitions with people. They are very strong, but you can have a tendency to emotionally color material that is not personally related to others, so simply watch yourself in that respect, that is all. Now, do you have a question?

(To Dennis and Giselle.) Now, you two will be around here for some time and as we have done with the other students here, we will do you in depth. I am smiling. Why is it that with new people, I have to say I am jovial? Ruburt’s muscles do not do what I want them to do, but then they are all I have to work with and so I cannot complain. It could be worse.

In one evening it is impossible to go into the complications of that existence, or for that matter, of this one. You may be able to get further information through your own sources and abilities. If not, and if you request it, we will see what we can do from this end.

The relationship is complicated. It has to do with that life and also a Danish life in which both of them were involved, and where this one’s mother was an older brother. There was great conflict between them. You were robbers for a time. You were poor and there was nothing else for you to do. You followed your older brother in this pursuit for some time. This was when you were fairly young children. Later you left and worked as an apprentice for a man in a carpentry shop. Your brother, however, continued in his pursuits and followed you for some time. He finally stole from the carpentry shop, and you were blamed for what was stolen. Your word was not taken; you were disbelieved. The conflict existing had to do with this episode as well as the episode from the past life. You are both overacting, overreacting to each other’s personalities for this reason.

You can free yourself by letting go. You must let go without trying as hard as you have. Relax about the affair. Do not try desperately to let go. Do you see the difference, because it is important that you do. Give me a moment. You must learn to release her completely from your own thoughts, the habitual thoughts that you have concerning her you must change, even though at this point your thoughts seem completely legitimate and in line with physical reality as you know it. You must change the situation completely, for the better, in your own mind. See it change, imagine it change. Do not keep checking against the physical reality that you know to see whether or not it has changed, for particularly in the beginning, this can lead you astray or make you feel you are getting nowhere; but if you change the situation in your own mind you will change it in physical reality.

(To Sally) We will make another try. I am yanking them out of their bodies one by one, you see, and this one yells and at the last moment pulls back. You do well when you do not realize what you are doing, but I want you to become aware and to use your intellect when you are out of your body, and you cannot do it when you are scared stiff.
