“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

There is no real need to fret or worry concerning Ruburt’s experiences of today. However, I am afraid that we must temporarily clip his wings, for indeed he would go too fast, too soon.

These things vary with personality; with Ruburt, while the ego cannot directly or immediately participate in such, shall we say excursions, it nevertheless must be kept up to date, and give consent. The concentration of energy on Ruburt’s part is increasing. His capability for such focus is increasing.

The ego simply feared the sudden increase of concentrated energy, and fought on general principles. For a week Ruburt should try no outside experiments of any kind. After this period we shall see. But there will not be a return to his past routine for quite a while.

Caution is always intelligent action in such matters. Ruburt has been in enough of a trance as it is. However, even the action of speaking for me this session is beneficial, as far as he is concerned. That is why I held the session to begin with.

I did indeed attempt to tell him to use caution, immediately after his last psychological time experiment. It is, of course, necessary that you learn through direct experience; and my warning you against various uncomfortable effects would not mean nearly as much if you did not, Ruburt, experience a few of them.

Were it not for my supervision, you could easily have experienced more of these. Our next session will cover much material, and I presume that Ruburt will be in much better condition to hold it.

Perhaps we can lengthen it. However, I do not feel that Ruburt should remain in a trance state today, any longer than he already has. If our caution slows down the material, there is no need to worry about time. We have plenty of it.

Patience, my pigeons. And if Ruburt continues feeding his pigeons as he does, then they will all be as big as barns.

My most sincere wishes to you both. I feel your emotions also, at times. My fondness for you both grows. Remember, also, that Ruburt’s abilities are extremely promising, which is why we must be careful when and how he uses them.
