“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now. First of all, I advise Ruburt along these lines: it is best if he not work at his own writing or records up until the last moment or so before a session.

He should relax, in any way he chooses, the hour preceding a session.

(Seth dealt with the expanding universe theory in sessions 42-45, saying among other things that our physical universe is not expanding as is currently thought; he had much to say on the distortive data furnished us by our instruments.)

I mentioned that the inhabitant of the other system with whom you made contact perceived your existence in both the future and the past. He also was aware however of your own comparative imprisonment in a limited present. For the present as you know it is very limited indeed. He realized therefore, when the incident occurred, how it would end. He can relive the incident at his leisure, and experience it as present if he so chooses.

He can also remember it from any viewpoint in his future, if he chooses. He can give this information about this event to his own image as it existed in time before the contact was made. He can therefore make alterations in any aspect of time as it affects him.

You see, at this point we must flow through many legitimate impressions that we pick up in connection with Dr. Instream, before we get at the specific impression that he wants.

If it is an emotionally charged object this will make our task easier. Though he need not concentrate upon it then with too great an intensity, since the object itself will send out information of its own.

There is no reason why the test results cannot be repeated, intrinsically. Dr. Instream however fears that they will not be repeated, and unless this feeling is changed on his part such will be the case. He wants a repeat, but he fears he will not get it, simply because he wants it so badly, and the student reacts to this subconscious inhibiting factor.

I seem to pick up a similarity somewhere between Dr. Instream and the student involved—a similarity in name, I do not know. He believes and expects success in his hypnosis experiments, and that is why he attains success. We shall however achieve what we want.

However, only by making mistakes can Ruburt learn to distinguish the highly nebulous changes, subjectively speaking, that characterize legitimate hits from failures, and without the experience he would not learn. The coat was a legitimate connection, but I could not get through to him to make it correctly. He was working on the level of personal associations. There is a certain feel to the correct channel, and he will learn to distinguish it.
