“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Our material has been excellent, but I have missed the emotional contact. Ruburt, because of the change in our practice, has been somewhat uneasy, and for this reason the more friendly atmosphere that he had enjoyed earlier had deserted us. The state which he has achieved this evening, with your help Joseph, allowed us to achieve that informality to some small degree.

As you should know here, I do not speak in terms of payment, I do not speak in terms of suffering, of making up. I do not speak in terms of his being forced to make up. I speak in terms of his own choice. For his own development he chose to make up, because of a past lack of sensitivity, because of a certain exhilaration felt in those days in cruelty, and because in those days his emotions held no sway, but what he considered cold reason led him on. But this reasoning, divorced from emotions led him into his own betrayal.

This time we see the development of the personality. We see that balances have been made here, we see the emotions having stronger bearing upon the personality. We also see, as I mentioned in your own case Joseph, we see an attempt to overcompensate. As once he would not trust the emotions and does not trust his reason, this being an attempt to compensate. Indeed its purpose is a good one, but any compensation of this sort must be balanced by the personality itself in all cases.
