“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Fear cannot be ignored. It must be faced and conquered. It always leads to retreat when it is not faced. The physical image is indeed a replica in many ways of the inner self. When a man is ill it is not necessarily because he wants to be ill subconsciously. It is not necessarily because he is receiving some hidden psychological benefit, or because the illness fulfills some need. He is ill often—always in fact—because of a distortion that is occurring within the self, and materialized in physical form.

None of us are ever equipped, for general purposes, to perceive reality in all of its forms. The pyramid gestalts can do this, and we help the pyramid gestalts perform this feat. But as a rule we must pick and choose. There is too much for any consciousness to digest except those so highly developed that even I know little of them.

You are at the point of a new and higher plateau. (Jane pointed at me, eyes wide open and dark.) You have not yet reached it however. It has taken you this time to consolidate your gains, and you have helped Ruburt these months also. The interaction between you results you see in a higher form of consciousness, for which both of you are responsible. For you do indeed operate as a gestalt also. Your joint abilities add up to more than your joint abilities.
