“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now. Our friend Ruburt was bound to come to this point. Regardless of what he believes about himself, his complete belief in me will only be arrived at intuitively and emotionally.

There was a Saturday afternoon on a November or December 2nd, (pause) that Blanche Price deeply regrets. Something that bothered Anne Healy. Now either the date, the year, was 1938, or the reason for Blanche’s actions on that afternoon date back to 1938.

She said things at that time that wounded Miss Healy, and her message is that she regrets the words deeply, particularly now. (Pause.) I believe the incident occurred near the supper hour, and in a dining room or restaurant. A man, indirectly or directly, provoked the argument. Either the man was Blanche’s father, or related to her rather than to Anne, regardless of the relationship. He may or may not have been present, but he was the cause of the argument.

Now the incident either occurred in Miss Healy’s dining room, the one with which Ruburt is familiar, or in a room very similar, in color and markings and period. No one knew of the argument but the two women, and neither of them told anyone. (Long pause.) The remark made by Blanche had to do with death—something to the effect, quote: when I’m dead you’ll be sorry. (Pause.) The word freedom was said or implied; death giving one or the other, then, freedom from a situation.

Now. Ruburt wants to see me. He wants to sense me, and to believe that I exist in precisely those terms that I have told him.

I am speaking now of the egotistical Ruburt, you understand. Now his desire will bring results. Before, no results would have been accepted by him.

The time was bound to come, for wholehearted acceptance. Before he did not wish for it. Now that he does, we will be able to bring it about. I have always gone as far in this direction as Ruburt would allow me to go, for I have had his health and welfare to consider.

Now, to all our benefits, he is willing to allow me to go further. (Long pause.)

We hope now that our regular two-session week will be normally resumed. One session may involve whatever Ruburt has in mind. The other will definitely be concerned now with theoretical material. (Pause.) I will make what suggestions I think helpful as we go along.

(After sending J. P. a copy of the last session, the 388th, held December 20, we recently received a very pleased letter from him. He reported that his wife seemed better, that he himself understood more now, and that he had some unasked questions for Seth.)
