“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

We will not this evening give a broad outline to our friend, concerning his health. We are indeed, instead, going to progress in a very slow manner, and give him tidbits. If we outline a whole program, then he will plunge into it, and we will have him go more slowly. For the problem already has to do with the fact that he plunges into both dilemmas and solutions, with a desperation that is born from anxiety, if not pure panic.

I now suggest your break, and I do myself indeed enjoy your pleasant summer evening. I would like to make it plain here, however, that on a surface psychological level, the personality plunges into activity, and it is for the present this portion of the personality with whom we must deal. Nevertheless, beneath there is a denial of involvement, and a strong desire for permanency, both of which are repressed, and the stronger the efforts put forth by the ego to repress these tendencies, then these tendencies will explode with inadequate stimuli. There will be an overaction on the part of the ego to compensate for the refusal to accept involvement on deeper levels.
