“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I did not mean that Ruburt should handle all your personal matters by any means. Such a suggestion was not my intention. I merely mean that when Ruburt feels strongly one way or another about a particular situation that you should give the matter deep thought and consideration, since you can usually, not always but usually, trust his intuitions.

I did suggest that for the present you trust Ruburt’s intuitions in the matter of your parents while you caught up with the technique of dissociation. There is no need for you to follow Ruburt’s lead in all directions. I merely want you to examine your own ideas as to what is practical, because often your ideas have been practical for the short term only, and in many cases though not all Ruburt’s seemingly unpractical notions have been based on very practical psychological knowledge.

I intend to go into Ruburt’s peculiarities at my leisure, and I will. Nevertheless it is still you, Joseph, with whom I will be concerned for a while. The fact remains that Ruburt’s intuitions have been of fairly high quality. It is true that your particular talents can give variety and reason to many of Ruburt’s ideas. In many cases you could for example accept Ruburt’s basic intuitive impulse, and then make your own changes. For example you could have left your position at a much earlier time and then made your own plans accordingly. When you both are intuitively attracted to the same proposed move then in most cases it would be wise to make it. Because you are so—is the word wobbly?—after your exercises I suggest a short break.

Our last session was a very long one. I will not keep you that long this evening. However I do suggest that you play around with your own camouflage patterns for a few moments, and then I will continue. And Ruburt, if you can find anything personal in camouflage patterns then I am done for.

It is only the inner senses which will give you any evidence at all of the basic nature of life itself. Since very often the vitality or stuff of the universe seems as innocuous as air might seem to you, then look for what you do not see. Explore places that appear empty, for they are full. Look between events. What you see clearly with your outer senses is camouflage. I am not suggesting that you take everything on faith, nothing of the sort. I am saying that what seems vacant lacks camouflage, and therefore if this is explored it will yield evidence. I hope I have not carried you too far too fast.

Music, or rather a musical composition also achieves this state. Sculpture does not, for reasons that I will go into at a later time. The camouflage here however in the matter of a statue is too much like a prison. I am going to suggest a break. You may fly in as many pieces as you like at once.

As their instruments reach further into the universe they will “see,” and I suggest that you put the word see into quotes, they will “see” further and further but they will automatically subconsciously transform what they apparently see into the camouflage pattern with which they are familiar.

Again I suggest a very brief break. I have learned that I can give you more material if I allow you to relax more often. Sometimes I get carried away and forget. However tonight my memory is good. And if I may say so, my material is even better.

For the individual concerned in such a case, the camouflage actually has changed. If you are willing to continue the session for a short time I again suggest a short break.
