“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Ruburt’s book will do very well. I am not speaking now in terms of riches. Nevertheless your immediate financial worries will definitely be over within a two-year period, when his other books will also begin to show in financial terms. You will be quite comfortably situated.

Now. Let us return to our discussion on action, and tie this in with action as it is seen within dreams. Your own dreams greatly affect the actions that you take within the physical situation, and as you know telepathy operates within dreams.

We are not speaking of my part now; for in such cases the connections are becoming specific, you see, and the preliminary connection has been made. The personal associations on his part that do not apply to the test object, do represent the fact that his own abilities have not fully developed.

Within a fairly decent amount of time, Ruburt and I will be able to work hand in hand, so that our own separate perceptions will build up together, to a more or less precise picture of the object involved. But upon many occasions his personal associations now are connected with the object; so he does not fight me, but we work together.

(The candle flame had begun to subside about ten minutes ago, and was now down to about a 3/4-inch height, from its estimated high of two inches earlier in the session. It now burned quite steadily at this low point, just as it had burned equally steadily earlier.

(Shortly after Jane began speaking again the candle flame climbed back up to a two-inch height. Her eyes were now closed, her pace once again good. Resume at 9:40.)

Now. Briefly I would like to return to your dreams, the same ones that we began to interpret the other evening.

(Jane’s eyes had again been opening and closing rather often. The candle flame, now, attained its highest point of the evening; it was well over an estimated two inches in height, rising up to such a height that a thin trail of black smoke escaped from it. Since the windows were still closed and there were no drafts, I could not account for the flame’s height. The candle is a large one, with a diameter of at least two inches and with very little taper. As before it sat out of the reach of Jane’s breath, and although it was closer to me I took care to keep my head averted so that my own breath could not influence it. Perhaps temperature changes within the candle could influence it after it has burned for a while, although it felt no warmer to me.)

Your own attitudes toward the family have changed considerably, and have become more tolerant since our sessions. Such tolerance helps you as well as those otherwise involved. Ruburt’s own attitude toward his mother has also become less rigid, largely as a result of our sessions. When you are quiet and not condemning others you can see them more clearly, and you are not afraid of them for you become stronger. You will find yourself enjoying the Christmas season, even with your relatives, for you understand now that a basic reality is involved.

(As usual now Jane’s pace slowed up, though not to a great degree. She sat with her eyes closed, her face tipped down to meet the ashtray beside her. Resume at 10:07.)

Now give us a moment, please. (Pause.)

He is feeling better now than he did at our last session.

A connection now with Dr. Rhine, and some arrangements or a letter. The initials, I believe J. B. R., and a letter from a publisher. The initials could be J. R. B..

(It was 10:15, and time for our 22nd envelope test. Jane took the sealed double envelope from me without opening her eyes. Now she did something new for her in these tests. For several seconds she held the envelope directly against her forehead. Her eyes remained closed. Then she lowered the envelope to her lap.)

(As Seth explains on page 134 of this session, some of the test data tonight represents preliminary connections with the test object, just as in the last envelope test with the drawing made by Roy Fox. Thus Jane’s personal associations are now often connected with the test object, and she is working with Seth and not against him.

We will now close our session, though you may watch the candle for a moment, as I am teaching Ruburt how to use energy. It is a rather simple matter of directing basic energy along certain lines outside of the physical organism. Everyone does this subconsciously to begin with.

(As soon as Seth mentioned the candle, its flame began to grow. Rather quickly, the flame reached up to a height beneath its maximum for the session, which was well over an estimated two inches. its growth now was quite respectable however, perhaps to something just under two inches. Considering the earlier displays by the flame, I now had a question.)

Now it should be getting quite a bit higher.

And now I suggest we end the session.

(End at 10:33. Jane was dissociated as usual. Her eyes had remained closed. She now told me that once again she had felt the peculiar sideways thrust, as of energy, directed toward the candle to her right. See page 124 of the 215th session for the first instance of this effect.

(Jane now relaxed on the bed. Peculiarly now, we saw the candle flame shoot up to equal its previous high, well over two inches. A delayed reaction? Jane now felt no energy thrust.)
