“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The psychic experiences are then used as poetic subjects, and this cycle of creativity is always enriched as the whole personality continually develops itself and grows. Any undue tampering disrupts this function. The personality could not approach its own promise until the poetic nature led to the psychic development. When this occurred, some personality adjustments were required. The ego felt threatened in direct proportion to the strength of the newly felt abilities, and performed a huge trick.

This trick was this: it pretended to accept the psychic nature as part of itself and began a campaign ostensibly aimed at living up to its image, of adapting it. But it purposefully distorted the idea image so grotesquely that it knew it could not be maintained. It would get its own way by pretending to give in. Psychics were saintly, dignified, quiet, restrained. They were, it said, everything that Ruburt was not. Therefore, Ruburt must be changed. It knew the change would be disastrous and in fact, impossible.
