(It will be recalled that in the 166th session, of June 30,1965, Seth told the witness, John Bradley, that “there is one other company in particular with which you could become involved to your advantage. It is situated in the Midwest, perhaps in Minneapolis... presently a small firm comparatively speaking, but it will expand drastically within a short time... you will become involved with this company I believe irregardless, either as a competitor or as a member of the organization.”

(Jane said at 8 PM this evening that she did not mind if we had an envelope test. I remarked that it was going to be a busy session, what with the material on the Gallaghers and Dr. Instream, a possible envelope test, and the chance that Seth might discuss two very long, vivid, and complicated dreams Jane had while taking a short nap last Friday morning. See Jane’s account in Volume 4, on pages 336-38. She believes that at least one of these dreams is a therapeutic dream, resulting from suggestions she gave herself following Seth’s material on therapeutic dreams in the last session.

The second dream is an excellent example of a therapeutic dream that results from self-suggestion. Ruburt requested a therapeutic dream from his inner self, and he received one.
[... 1 paragraph ...]
Indeed, Ruburt is correct in one respect at least, for the first dream, concerning the voices, was meant to be a therapeutic dream. However his own doubts changed the action within the dream, and he reacted to his doubts and ignored the earlier portion of the dream entirely.

Instead the experience frightened him, although only momentarily, for upon immediately awakening his mood was one of joy, and the earlier fear was forgotten. When he heard the voices, rather than becoming confident, he began to rise up to more shallow layers, and the ego ruled the dream sequence that followed.

But he tries again, and in the dream he discovers another radio on your bookcase, Joseph , where our material is kept. The connection is obvious, for he knows that the Seth material comes from the same system as the voices. Here he reaches out to turn the radio off, and is stopped by a severe and sudden shock. The shock is his knowledge that our material would cease were he to shut off his abilities in such a manner. So the shock, which is one of realization, prevents him.
The connection with yourself is also obvious, since this happens in your room in the dream, for were he to shut off his abilities, you see, as one can turn off a radio, then you would be deprived as well as himself.

In the dream itself, he goes into his room and discovers that his ability is as much a part of him as his breath, and that he cannot turn it off and on at will, or turn it off as one would a radio. He stands in the room, and there is an electric storm in the dream, and the room is touched by vibrating currents. He is afraid. Nevertheless he realizes that he is part of the storm, and the storm is part of himself, and it is not destructive but creative; and most of all, a simple elemental part of reality as it is.
This realization made the following dream, the second dream, possible. But the following dream would not have been possible without the first. The second dream is a dream of expansion. We will discuss it from two levels. The most meaningful level was one in which the many rooms represented psychic areas of development, endless possibilities that continually opened; but possibilities which were based on previous life experiences, and there are many aspects of reincarnational data in this dream, all reinforcing the healthy aspects of Ruburt’s personality.

He will have success with part of the experiment, having to do with an S. What he plans is entirely feasible however, and quite possible. There is a personality quirk, so to speak, that may snag him here, and the word snag has more than one meaning.

(Jane was sure “death of a dog” referred to the last dental appointment she had had previous to May 5,1965. This would be 3 years ago; Jane said she recalled this vividly because our dog, Mischa, died within two days or so of that long-ago appointment. The appointment itself had also been a painful one.

(Jane had been relaxing on the bed during break, and resumed speaking from there. She lay on her side, her head propped up by one hand. Her glasses were on; because of this I thought her eyes might open eventually. Her pace was good, her voice quiet as she resumed at 10:45.)

(Jane still lay on the bed. Now she groped for her pack of cigarettes, and lit one. Her eyes opened very briefly, and barely enough for her to see, as she struck the match. Then she resumed talking and smoking with her eyes closed.)
