“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Due to the very long unscheduled session of last Sunday, May 30, our regularly scheduled session for the next day, Monday, May 31, was not held. This was more to save me work in finishing up notes than because of any tiredness on Jane’s part. She had no ill effects from the session.

The man is using his own energies less effectively, since so much of them are being consumed in nervousness. He has not learned to conserve his energies, but to use them at all it seems that he must allow them almost to explode, so that there is little reserve. This is unfortunate, but can be corrected.

I am going to take this instance of your friend’s illness however to make a few points of my own, some that may not be too well received. A cure of any kind will never depend upon any given treatment. It will in all cases depend upon the belief on the part of the sufferer that he can be cured. It will depend upon his desire to be cured. It will depend upon the strength of the purpose that an illness serves. It will depend upon, in the last analysis, the individual’s own ability to mobilize his own energies, for only these will effect a cure.

Any physician of any kind can only help a sufferer mobilize these energies and direct them. A sufferer has adopted an illness into his own self-image, through suggestion, which to a large degree he himself has given. He has caused the illness, whether it be organic or otherwise, and only suggestion will rid him of it.

The trouble with many health programs for recovery is that they cause the sufferer to focus upon his illness more than ever. The unsolved problem is therefore pushed further away. Our program for your friend will almost immediately include a brief but effective suggestion that should be given before sleep, and at various times during the day.

So-called suggestion causes not only sickness but health.
