“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(See page 322. We had discussed with Bill the additional information Seth gave in the last session concerning the boat with a symbol on it, supposedly visible to Bill from this particular seaside room in Provincetown, but Bill is not able to recall the craft in question. Seth had also mentioned this boat in the 68th and 75th sessions.)

–and say this is a table, and nearly all will agree. But the seasons are automatic constructions along the lines of alterations, happening to matter already constructed.

You cannot for example see autumn, but only its effects upon matter already constructed. The seasons represent indeed a more or less regular inner sweep and rhythm that finds expression through altering what psychic energy has already created.

There are, then, constructions that are known only through their effects. These constructions are those which most closely approximate inner reality, in that they are not as completely imprisoned in form or matter, but in themselves change form or matter.

There was a green boat, tied, that was not empty, but had bulky shapes in it, and some dark material. A bit away, and low, and with no motor, that was used twice a week and on one other designated day. I suggest that we drop the subject.

In a deep trance we could tell you much, Ruburt and I, but I still agree on the principles of cooperation, and always follow the dictates of caution. Ruburt’s abilities along these lines are great, but it is necessary always that certain controls are maintained; and he certainly sees to that!

There is an emotional bond that is important in the setting up of such contacts, and what is clear in such clairvoyance may take in certain objects or situations that are perceived, not because of their logical cohesion, but events or situations which the emotional bond makes significant.

Well, I will close. But then, I give in to you so often. Is your hand tired?

One note. You both can and should learn to utilize your energies in the same manner that Ruburt utilizes his energies during a session. His fatigue is not only forgotten, but he is no longer fatigued although his working day was personally exhausting.

I certainly will here refrain from even suggesting that you put your intuitions to work in practical terms, since this obviously does not meet with your wholehearted approval, but falls far short.

There must be a balance, and there shall be. Indeed, there is here, between intuition and discipline. But I do know laws of energy that neither of you are acquainted with. Far be it from me to tamper with Ruburt’s precious ego. The assistant to the director of the Arnot Art Gallery is not to be tampered with indeed!

I do never mean to hint that material goals are basically important, for they are not. But within bounds shoddy physical constructions are a poor commentary upon psychic health. Because your hand is tired I will end, and I will again promise a short session.

Ruburt might squawk, but he has nothing to squawk about. I keep him in shape, and I’m afraid I’ll have to do the same for you. And so good night.
