“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane said she thinks her practice with psychological time experiments had much to do with the ease with which she put herself into a good state, since she achieved it in about five minutes. Nor were her gums sore at all afterwards.

(Jane also had another success involving her cooperating subconscious. Last Saturday afternoon she lost a package downtown while shopping. It was late in the day before she discovered this, and she just had time to make the rounds of the stores, all of whom reported nothing found and turned in. At home that evening she questioned her subconscious with the old pendulum technique, and learned she had left the package in the dressing room of a certain store—one which had already said no package had been found.

Later you will not need the pendulum. The habit of communication will then operate without it. All the information, for example, that I gave you earlier, very much earlier, concerning say your refrigerator, and the unsuitability of its location at that time, such details could have been received through the pendulum.

Ruburt is only learning now not to scold and badger his subconscious. Again, all of this involves action within action. Now. It is the intuitive, spontaneous and psychically exuberant nature of Ruburt’s whole entity, for one thing, that makes it possible for me to communicate with you both.

I am usually able to escape the personal subconscious area in general. However, as you know I speak only for convenience, for there are no real barriers to separate these layers. They are simultaneous areas, that merge one into the other. For an analogy you may say that upon some occasions, though few, Ruburt’s personal subconscious layer expands so that I must travel through portions of it, and at other times it contracts and bothers me not at all.

This will all be explained in particular, rather than general terms at a later date. Suffice it to say here that such communications, again, represent the characteristics of motion in a more or less pure form. I will have something to say also, perhaps at our next session, concerning Ruburt’s experience this afternoon.

This does not mean that the personality must be completely swept away by an emotion, though this is what such an ego fears. Emotion replenishes even the ego. Emotions demand resiliency, and resiliency is both the result of spontaneity, inner assurance, and discipline. All this is action, for the personality itself is composed of action, and is constantly changing. This is action, therefore, delighting in the expression and form of itself.
