“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Much training and practice would be necessary before it would be possible for the personality to be aware of such journeys on a conscious, egotistical level. For like a man walking a tightrope in his sleep, sudden awareness of such a feat could be disastrous, for the delicate balance necessary is not dependent upon egotistical awareness; and such awareness, without warning, could be highly detrimental.

The unscheduled session is beneficial in that it gives Ruburt practice. The voice effects carry him along so that he gives no attention, or very little attention, to what I am saying, and therefore we usually get a good reception in terms of clear communication.

The Jane ego stands further aside. There is an emotional rapport that also carries Ruburt along when my spirits or moods then also sweep him along; and again the Jane ego is content to stand aside. My emotional makeup comes to the foreground at times, of course. Energy is used for such demonstrations, so that it may seem that the material takes second place. But the practice is to the overall advantage of the material.

This simply involves practice again, as I learn how much energy is necessary to get certain effects. Since I am using Ruburt’s voice mechanisms, certain adjustments must be made as I discover how best to manipulate the necessary mechanisms.

The exercise involved here will also help Ruburt in giving the material, and it will help in understanding the operation of the self under such conditions. As such these tests may be considered quite practical portions of the material itself, and we shall use them on various occasions to make certain points.
