“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I knew that the material was being read. However I did not feel it wise to make a point of telling you because this knowledge in itself would have set up blocks, and on both of your parts.

There must be abstract knowledge and concept before there can be any applied knowledge in real terms. The more philosophic material, or what could almost be called academic material, suits both of you greatly, and is indeed where my own interests mainly lie.

Your personal work, both yours and Ruburt’s, will benefit whoever sees your paintings or reads Ruburt’s poetry. It is performed however in solitary and divorced, as it must be, from an intimate contact with people. It is only natural that you carry this over into our sessions, preferring that they be held without such contact. This is not only understandable but in many instances profitable, in that it allows for a diversity of subject matter.

(Jane delivered the above paragraph quite forcefully, facing me with one foot up on a chair. She now took a rather long pause, walking over to a window and looking out before resuming delivery. It might be added here that at the time of the visit of Jane’s father, on the night in question Jane had, as she was explaining some of the Seth material to her father and Midge, felt definite emotional “nudges” from Seth to hold a session, whereas upon the occasion of our visit with Bill and Ida in Rochester, she had not. Yet in the latter instance she had finally acceded to the lively curiosity, and because both of us felt this welcome, held the session. Neither of us seriously considered holding a session for Jane’s father and Midge, due to the turbulent circumstances.)

We will return to other matters for our next session. I still find you both in excellent overall condition, regardless dear Joseph of the hay fever, and we shall take steps before next season to rid you of that.

Ruburt is coming along well in the gallery situation. You should have a good winter, both of you. If Ruburt can stand it, I would suggest a three-day period after he leaves the gallery, during which he does no writing. Perhaps playing about his apartment while instructing his subconscious to work for him in the interval, and completely divorcing his conscious mind from his writing for that period of time. Such a method will result in maximum use of his abilities, and more practical utilization of energy.
