“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I have spoken through others. The arrangements “this time” were already made, you see. It is true that Ruburt need not have accepted the arrangement. If so the material would have been given, but in different fashion.

It represented also the searching, creatively dissatisfied portion of you, looking for further understanding and knowledge. The peculiar relationship existing between you and Ruburt was also a prerequisite, and so your permission and acceptance was also needed.

Such work does not only necessitate the choosing of one individual, but is also an endeavor in which many other elements are taken into consideration. It was known, for example, that Ruburt would need your support, as it was also known that the work itself would help your own creative abilities.

The characteristics needed for “mediumship” are much like those needed by any strongly creative person. A strong supportive ego is a necessity, particularly in initial stages. In periods of severe personality disturbances that can occur simultaneously with great creativity, the ego becomes terrified of the strength of the creative ability, fearing that it can be crushed beneath.
