“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Our relationship should enable you both to deal more adequately with the outside world. I will never suggest that you try to escape it. Your development of the inner senses will not blot out the outer world. It will enable you to see it more clearly for what it is, and therefore you will be able to manipulate camouflage patterns more adequately.

I was going to suggest if I may be so bold another innovation, but you have already adopted or returned to it. That is, it will be a good policy to arise at 7:30, and get your painting time in. I do not want to take up all your working hours, and you must have time to paint. I see no harm in sleeping until 8:00 the morning after a session, but a balance of schedule is important, and you can see that I wish to relate you to yourself and your work, and not to turn all your energies toward myself.

The planes represent the various levels upon which the personalities operate. I suggest a brief break.

This is very important, however. Again I suggest a break, merely because this material is new, and we seem to get better reception with short half-hour rests.

I suggest a brief break again. There is much more to be gone into here.

The bookcases should stay as they are, my dear Ruburt. Enough is enough, and you have optimum benefit from them. You should feel much better. The bedroom arrangement is fine, and if my dear Joseph will not blame Ruburt’s subconscious I would make one further suggestion that is not, however, to involve any more complicated arrangements on Ruburt’s part: simply, when it is possible, the addition of either a comfortable chair or a small desk and chair, quite simple, to your bedroom arrangement, as a more or less permanent fixture for a small private place, accessible when he wants it, for our so sensitive and sometimes pigheaded Ruburt.

Otherwise everything is fine. Ruburt should be satisfied. I suggest the bookcases as a permanent arrangement. These are, after all, only logical suggestions to make your daily living more comfortable, and therefore free your energies. Ruburt can calm down now. I never saw such stirrings and slammings and carrying-ons. The suggestion of a chair for reading or relaxation, or a small desk in the bedroom, is merely so that our wandering Ruburt can have one other place in another room where he feels he can go. It is merely a safety valve, but I do not make any of my suggestions lightly, though from Ruburt’s vehement reactions I shall certainly keep my suggestions mostly to myself.

In fact, I take back my suggestion about dining in the kitchen, lest he pull out a wall for the purpose. Nevertheless, you will both feel better about your living quarters in general, and this is extremely important after all.

Manipulation of camouflage patterns actually opens up inner abilities. You know by now that I am never suggesting time should be taken from your necessary art work. I am certainly glad that we are back on schedule. I do not mean to be fussy, and Ruburt did get a rather embarrassing flash from me before the session. I blush to admit the fact, but at one time I did call you Yoyo.

You should have many quiet sessions filled with accomplishment. I hope we have things on an even keel again. And remember, no harm can come to either of you through training your inner senses. Fear can hold you back greatly in these efforts. I would also suggest continuing your practice of getting out of the house on Saturday evenings, and though Ruburt is not a passionate hostess I would suggest that you have friends in. And also that you, Joseph, take walks or at least get out more often.
