“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

So you are embarked upon valuable work and experience. You are only beginning to ask the correct questions. Hypnosis is an excellent tool, you are using. It is valuable indeed. As you learn to ask the proper questions, it will become more valuable. You need to grow beyond the concern for the nature of the light. In the terms of which I am speaking, this is not the kind of question. That kind of question will only give you a certain kind of answer, and if you follow that course then you will follow a question-and-answer course, but without learning anything more than a series of questions and answers that have meaning only within a certain limited framework. So you must lead yourselves free of that.

Now some of this has to do with some information given to you by Joseph last evening—Joseph is your friend Robert—having to do with your ideas of health and illness. You must learn to understand your motives and even with the hypnotic ability that your husband has, you still have not learned to understand your own motives using that tool. The fear of reincarnation is again a shield for another fear that you have not faced that has nothing to do with reincarnation but has charged the word reincarnation to you. The fear is not connected with reincarnation per se, but as long as you believe, unconsciously, that this is so, you will react in that manner. You can use the tool of hypnosis to a far greater degree than you are using it.

(To Edgar) And you must learn also to look beyond your own facade for you believe in it utterly, and yet it is not you. The work you are doing is valuable and can be, but it demands a high integrity of a kind you are only beginning to learn. By integrity, I am speaking of honesty with self that demands you to go beyond the self-deceptions that you accept as your self at any given point.

(To Edgar and Maria.) Now another thought. You must try to avoid an overconcentration now upon the negative simply because you are looking for symptoms with the people who come to you. This is extremely important, otherwise you can project also. Your own thoughts and feelings should be those of health and vitality so that these alone help in the healing process. Now these are things that you will learn, and I am not scolding you, do not look at me like that, or you will make me cry, but it is the only time I have to get a hold of you, and so I want you to understand what I am saying.

(To Edgar) I did not say it was foolish to ask questions. Now when you read the text you will see that I simply said you were beginning to learn to ask the proper questions, for some questions can be traps that betray you.
