“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The training involved on Ruburt’s part does result in a utilization of abilities, and for his conscious use. That is, the abilities are not being developed haphazardly, despite his own inclinations, but in answer to his inclinations. The personality therefore is being highly developed.

Now this development helps me, for I need his development in order that my communications be more clearly presented and received. Basically however all of this takes place in deeply unconscious layers. Abilities and energies are released. These cannot be willed however, on a conscious level.

Consciously Ruburt can learn to note various circumstances that seem to facilitate or inhibit his abilities, and our communications, but the abilities themselves develop in accordance with unconscious principles. I can take advantage of these principles, and to some extent use them, but I cannot ignore them.
