“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The tissue capsule of which I have spoken earlier surrounds every living consciousness. To some extent it could be compared to an extra layer of skin surrounding the physical body, except that it is not constructed in the same manner upon your plane, and is invisible to you under ordinary circumstances.

These capsules can be seen by you under certain circumstances, and have been called astral bodies—a term which does not meet with my pleasure. I would like to repeat again the fact that in many instances, and with exceptions, ideas not fully constructed on your plane not only have great force but are also freer from the effects of physical laws. The idea has at its command then greater and varied methods of expression, and from it varieties of construction can be attempted. I have mentioned the advantages of a painting over a piece of sculpture, and an idea not fully captured will find further expression.

Incidentally it is possible that you and Ruburt and his friend at the art gallery and her husband may become good friends, but it would have been extremely inadvisable for you to have moved into her apartment. You both have known the woman before, and under unpleasant circumstances. As tenants you would have been extremely dissatisfied with her.

The ordinary seasonal influx with chemical variations usual in her case, plus your mother’s phone call, the niece’s pregnancy, and with your help, brought upon the circumstances. Your help incidentally refers to your anger at the children. It raised Ruburt’s hidden hopes of a larger apartment and then dashed them, building up his resentment. You forget that Ruburt-Jane’s first impulse is to act. This is extremely important in his makeup. It is for this reason that the extended use of the back room, and even the work on the kitchen would be beneficial. Need I say that his corner in your room must be felt by him to be his own.
