“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Trying psychological time on Tues. 8/4, 8:15 PM, I had no results. I missed trying on Wed, 8/5. Jane had nothing to add to the record. Both of us feel we are at low psychic ebb yet.

(Jane had no idea of the subject matter for the session as the time for it approached. She was not nervous. And once again, as in the 75th and 76th sessions, 9 PM came and passed, and she did not begin dictating as scheduled. She did begin at 9:01, however. Her voice was quiet, her pace rather slow. Her eyes darkened as usual.)

He is confident of his basic worth as an individual, as a writer, and even finally as a wife in relationship to you. But when he relates to the world at large, his first unfortunate reaction is a panic that is derived from psychological and emotional heritage, environmental as he picked up his mother’s distrust of the outside.

The appearance of confidence, the engaging social self, is indeed a cover-up, adopted to give him time to acclimate to new circumstances of this sort. As you well know, he lived in close supervision with his mother, and until his late, very late adolescence his whole life was literally spent within the confines of fifteen blocks, except for very short excursions.

You will both benefit from your vacation. There will be no sessions. I even suggest that you dispense with your psychological time experiments during that time.

In your cases, at the very least one weekend a month should be set aside for sensuous immersion in the patterns of nature, when usual practical considerations are dispensed with. The refreshment will more than make up for, quote, “time lost”, unquote. I am not necessarily speaking of extended journeys. The details will be your own, of course.

I do have a suggestion, and a suggestion only, for Joseph. Tomorrow afternoon I suggest a long, carefree, refreshing and solitary walk in the afternoon usually devoted to painting time.

This is a most enjoyable and beneficial way of psychic relaxation and renewal. Do not be concerned with physical time. Do not overdo. Come home before you are tired. Forget if possible all personal egotistical considerations, feeling only psychic unity. You will be amazed at how this will help.

I have no intention of leaving our material on matter up in the air. However this evening’s discussion is most timely; since I am sure of you now–

The proximity of the river to your apartment should be utilized. I also suggest that you dispense with psychological time for the remainder of this week. You need now to recharge your batteries so to speak, and this should be most pleasant and enjoyable. As a special favor in this direction, I will end the session.

My fond good evening to you both. You are in no danger of a severe depression of any kind. One of the benefits of these personal readings is that I can help you catch yourselves way ahead of time, so to speak, and this is an adventure more important than you realize.

Often, as a postscript, you will personally block inner data of your own because of your own psychological connotations, but you will accept the same basic material telepathically from another source, such as a friend.
