“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

There were also some hints in it that you will use subconsciously, and from which new developments will grow. The sending out of another manuscript is symbolically important to Ruburt, and represents definite progress. (High, Low and Psycho.) Both of you need rest this evening. In your sleep you will correlate recent developments so that better use will be made of them. Your activities in the sleep state will actually be rather ambitious, and you will generate considerable energy from them. We more than made up for missed sessions by the recent developments. I will not keep you therefore, although I will answer any questions if you have them.

(Smile.) You would have been consciously aware of the painting whether or not you were consciously aware of the vision. It is you who think of the painting in terms of time, and who perceive it in this manner. (Sitting up as she spoke, Jane began to take off her sweater and shoes.) The painting exists and in one reality you have already completed it. In your present framework however you seem to be waiting for the developments to occur.

I am. In not developing your abilities to the point where you can tune in on these paintings, that belong to your whole self, you impede your progress, and to that extent deny portions of creativity.

The paintings already exist however as definite potential forms, already created by your whole self. Only you can give them physical reality however. You can only fail in not giving them physical form, and you can only fail to give them physical form by refusing to open up your inner channels to the intuitions of the whole self.

The natural development of your abilities in other words already exists. You must merely be ready, intuitively alive, prepared and assured, and these developments will appear to you. (Pause.) Great artists are those who materialize physically the paintings already created by the whole self in potential form.

Now this whole self is completely unique, yet the energy that composes it is a part of the energy that also is the ground of being, for all other consciousnesses. Therefore when you are true to yourself, when you materialize these paintings clearly, there is also (Jane pointed at me emphatically eyes open wide) within them a ground of knowledge, intuition and being, that is instantly felt by all other individuals.

This is what makes a painting great, the validity of the inner ground of being within them, interpreted in highly individual ways. The individuality itself, if it is intuitively valid, will lead to a universal inner recognition on the part of all who perceive such a painting.
