“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I suggest your break.

I suggest a very brief break, and we shall continue.

Nine. A miscellany of shapes. A connection with a light or a round bright object that suggests light.

Something beats like a motor. I suggest your break.

(“A connection with a light or a round bright object that suggests light.” Jane said this is her interpretation of Seth’s first data regarding the circular handstamp on the object. Later in the data she becomes more specific.

(In the 232nd session for February 9,1966 Seth suggested that a portion of a session a month be devoted to our psychic and physical circumstances. He agreed with my suggestion that we try the first session after the first of each month. We haven’t been this faithful but have decided to make stronger efforts here. There will thus be more deletions in the future. None of this evening’s material is cut. I regard it as illuminating and a good example of the way Seth presents such material. On but two or three occasions in the past we have eliminated personal material from these records. This material is on file and available to anyone studying these sessions.

(The personal material we have received in the sessions has been psychologically sound. Jane and I feel this way because whenever we have put Seth’s suggestions to the test through practice, the results have been excellent.)

(Jane and I visited my parents at their home in Sayre, PA, last Sunday, March 20,1966. We got along well. Following Seth’s recent suggestions, usually given in unscheduled sessions, I have been making conscious efforts concerning my reactions to my parents. The results have been very good.)

I did not tell you this earlier since I did not want negative suggestion to operate. If you maintained good health up to and including March 20 of this year, you were in the clear, and so you are. And for the first time in three years, you are completely in the clear.

A negative suggestion given you by your mother allowed you to activate it. However, you would have found ways of your own in any case. And even though you activated it, you fought it.

(Strange as it may seem—or perhaps not so strangely after all—I remember my mother giving me this negative suggestion quite clearly. There had been a good deal of radio and newspaper publicity concerning the oral vaccines at that time. When we happened to mention to my parents that we had taken it, my mother was rather emphatic in emphasizing the dangers in taking “such things; you might get polio,” etc.

(Remember that this episode took place just before, or just as, these sessions began. At the time Jane and I knew little about the power of suggestion. We received Type II in November 1963, the month in which we began experimenting with matters psychic. We did not get to work, really, with the Ouija board until later in the month; Seth made his appearance in December 1963.

I wanted to congratulate you however, you personally, Joseph. Now your next line of endeavor will involve good health in the late summer, and this can be arranged. We will work on it, and shortly give you some specific suggestions that will be of practical benefit.

(Seth has discussed hay fever a few times; with these bits and pieces of information, plus knowledge of and use of suggestion, I managed to maintain myself in fairly good condition during last fall’s season; for me this is from mid-August to about the third week in September. I have already begun telling myself I will feel very good this fall.

Now. Whenever you find time, we will hold sessions in which definite diet suggestions are given for you both, for there are allergies that operate here, and you are not taking advantage of the information that I have in this regard.
