“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

One instance concerns Ruburt and your automobile. The other involves you, Joseph, and again your automobile.

I am insistent that Ruburt have a vacation, at least to some degree, and will not go deeply into these matters until our next session. There is much to be explained. Needless to say, emotional impetus was at the base of success at both occasions; and lack of emotional impetus was the main reason for your failure when the both of you tried to move the ring, using your psychic energies the other evening.

If this is the case then the seemingly desired end is not really either desired or expected, and subsequent manipulation of matter will fall short of success. When Ruburt heard from you that the servicemen seemed not to know what was the matter with the car, he instantly remembered what I had said about expectation. Consciously he decided to expect that the car would be fixed, despite your truly gloomy semipredictions.

I will also cover your achievement, as when you actually increased your car’s efficiency on your return trip. This was somewhat different, though basically the same as Ruburt’s achievement. And I will also explain why Ruburt did not conquer his cold psychically, although he tried.

Ruburt’s voice will suffer not at all from our session, although I know that he has been coughing and hacking all day.

Perhaps the session will even give it a rest. I would continue the session, except that Ruburt has more or less been promised a two-week vacation, and he has not even had that as far as I am concerned.

So the intelligent adult now knows, does he not, that no one individual but superior being exists as God in some heaven, threatening hell to the sinners and disbelievers? For many reasons the idea does not make logical sense. You never emotionally believed it. Ruburt did.
