“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Then I will speak briefly concerning Ruburt’s book of poetry, for this is an excellent example of how suggestion can be used to utilize energy for conscious purposes.

The achievement, the book itself, is excellent. The book was written by other portions of the self than the ego, and it was not written at the ego’s wish alone.

I should be quite disappointed if you were not showing improvement. Your own psychic improvement, Joseph, is marked. Ruburt, with this book before him as an example, should know that he can now expect more of himself, and should not be satisfied with less. You are both becoming therefore more responsible as a result of your successes.

Your energy will be focused where you want it. Ruburt’s book ordinarily would have taken him, at the very least, four months with ordinary efficiency. You notice that Ruburt did not specifically request that a book of poetry be produced, nor was a book even mentioned.

I recommend most strongly that you use the same procedure; success would allow you to do ten times as well in the available time as is usual. You have Ruburt’s book before your eyes as proof.

(See page 241 of the last session, the 227th, for the data on the time schedule by which Jane produced the book of poetry. It will be noted that on the four days, January 21, 24, 25, 26, Jane wrote 52 poems in the course of from 16-18 1/2 hours.

(A recount since last session reveals that the total number of poems should be revised upward, to 63, produced in the same amount of time. In giving me the first set of figures Jane counted the pages in the book of poetry, forgetting that there were two poems on some pages.
