“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

In this existence however the personality of its own free will chose to understand in a different context, and work out problems faced so poorly in the earlier life. This time the personality is John’s wife, being cared for, you see, rather than caring for; being physically dependent. The personality could not and would not, out of fear, try to understand the circumstances and position of the crippled daughter. Not for a moment could he then bear to contemplate the inner reality in personal terms.

John remembers subconsciously the old situation. This is partially the cause of some of the negative feelings, but there is no guilt in any (underlined) of this. No one save the individual entity knows in what directions weaknesses lie that need correction, and it sets about forming life dramas in which these can be faced.

Such a situation allows John’s present wife to telescope the experience needed into one life-situation, to delve deeply, and face at once problems that could otherwise take several existences.
