“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

We shall, then, take a very brief break for Ruburt’s benefit, since I always give him one after this sort of material.

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.

Ruburt’s ego now contains elements that did not at one time belong to it. It contains portions of the self that are—I hesitate, you see, to say superior, for he is not to get conceited—but portions of the self that contain more abilities than those usually held by the ego.

This is meant indeed to encourage you. It is not meant in any way to give Ruburt the idea that he is superior to anyone else. You both have the responsibility to use all of your abilities, and this is perhaps the one thing that is required of you.

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.

Now, my friend, I am quite capable and agreeable. I will continue the session, or you may end it and instead take a break. It is up to you. I should suggest however a good night’s sleep, and I should suggest specifically that you give yourself the same sort of suggestion that Ruburt gave to himself before retiring.

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.
