“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

May I now wish you all the heartiest of greetings.

Whenever it is possible, I would suggest that our gentleman with the ulcer read our last sessions. Indeed, I believe that he has somewhat less of an ulcer now, although the degree is slight. I will also, if I may, congratulate the writer of the newspaper article, even though my own name was nowhere mentioned, for it goes without saying that I am indeed truly humble.

There will be three people in particular with whom you will be involved at your meeting, three men. One of these will be younger than the others. There is, I believe, a book which you will be asked to read, and there will be an appointment made. As you suspect, there was no coincidence involved when you chose your Dr. Instream. The affair will work out much better now, for in the past circumstances would have prevented not his interest, but his availability. There will indeed be a change that is only now beginning, in the daily ways of your lives, and you are both subconsciously preparing yourselves.

The changes will not suddenly show themselves. This is merely a slow beginning, but the initial steps have been made, and the first and initial program has been completed. It is developing even better than I had hoped, and our own material will now begin to really develop, for we have enough background to enable us to cover subject matter that would have been impossible at an earlier time. But the first portion of our program has been completed in many other ways, having to do with the development of abilities, and with the development of that gestalt which we now form.

This is a difficult procedure, and in all cases and in all developments of this nature, there must be no attempt made to browbeat the ego, for in this way lies schizophrenia and disorientation. Ruburt’s abilities now are beginning to develop. We are sure of our foundation, and this was most necessary.

We can now begin shortly on other aspects of our program, the second. You are not unfamiliar with this program, Joseph, nor indeed is Ruburt. Your own inner knowledge is most adequate. It is Ruburt’s independent ego that is here a strong helpmate to us, for since we have taken it into consideration it allows us leeway while automatically keeping the whole personality in good balance.

(See the 63rd session in Volume 2. Jane now smiled and turned toward Lorraine Shafer. Her eyes were still closed.)

I see you also in a group of four. If there are five, the fifth will be a woman, and one man in this group will later be of benefit to us. I am pleased indeed that we have come so far in such a brief time. We have done well, particularly since the foundations for this sort of venture are so important. We can now go forward, fairly certain that Ruburt is strong enough to carry the burden. It is more than worth his while.

I am taking the opportunity to speak concerning these matters, since I had already decided not to cover any complicated material for our session. I am also giving you more frequent breaks, since I am again aware that your energies will be needed. Our material in general however can now expand; and indeed, though not always, some extra dimensions and perspectives may be added to our sessions.

I will now let you take a break, or as you prefer you may close the session.

(End at 10:20. Jane had been well dissociated as usual. A lively discussion now developed among us as to the nature and possible origin of the brogue or accent Jane had displayed during most of the session.

I will now, with my true dignity, bring this fateful session to a close. I would continue but for my innate good manners. I will at another occasion give our Jesuit some rather fateful measures to contemplate, and perhaps we will ask him how many ulcers can sit on the head of a pin. My best and most sincere wishes to you all. I will sign myself fatefully yours.
