“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane did not feel at all well before this evening’s session, and I was not at my best either. I suggested to Jane that she pass up the session but she wanted to have one if possible. We were both curious to see what Seth would say about basic causes, and as it developed we had some fairly good insights. We seem to have had good results recently, in applying the material to our daily lives. This application has been after the event in many instances, of course, and we hope to continue to improve in using it in a practical way to forestall various problems.

There is, indeed, nothing seriously wrong with our cigarette smoker, Ruburt. Tension however has caused a disturbance. Tension arising, oddly enough, from the realization that his book will indeed be published. This tension will vanish. He needs to relax.

I was going to speak this evening rather in depth concerning action within action, as there is much to be said here that will show you how actual dimensions of action are formed. However, this will be a brief session. We have much time available to us, and need not worry over an occasional missed or short session, as long as our overall pattern is maintained.

Disturbing the image in two ways at once is indeed difficult and I would suggest, as I believe you suggested Joseph, that the smoking problem be tackled. Let us not try to change our image overnight in too many ways at once. These matters also helped add to Ruburt’s tension. It grabbed him rather viciously today.

I would suggest that Jane do what I presume is womanly, and to a woman logical under the circumstances. Purchase her preparation by all means, for here we have a clever attempt at trickery. To take focus away from the smoking problem, our Ruburt suddenly decides to go “a la naturel” as far as hair is concerned.

I am going to save my planned discussion until our next session, and end this evening’s session. It would be advisable if Ruburt enjoyed either light reading this evening, or perhaps your television. But no more heavy reading this evening.
