“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

It was a welcome to the spontaneous self, expressed creatively. The idea is an excellent one. A poetic statement carries weight for his personality, and this poetic statement has almost magical connotations. As natives do a dance to induce rain, with often excellent results, so Ruburt’s poem represents the same sort of incantation.

(9:31. Jane’s trance had been a good one, her pace rather fast. Already, she said, she knew what Seth was going to discuss after break. Resume at 9:45.)

It is not something to be controlled. It is something that will take its place with the other elements of his personality, merge with it, add its strength, and set up its own system of balances with other groupings of characteristics. These groupings balance themselves. Tell him this. There is no need to treat one characteristic as a stepchild.

(“What does the new personality, the larger Seth, think of our time system? He must have experienced many different ones.”

(Here Seth refers to our seance of early 1964, and some physical effects manifested in Jane’s hands. Now Jane held up one hand, then pointed to it.

(10:30. Jane said the trance had been a deep one. Somehow she had felt freer during it, she said. Resume at 10:43.)

We have one further note. Ruburt’s spontaneous nature is tolerant, sunny, quite natively good in his terms—qualities that he finds so difficult when he tries to manufacture them while denying spontaneity. I expect now a definite change for the better, and as soon as Ruburt is ready, then we will begin my book.

(Pause.) We had better wait for our next session, for already I am involved with one idea alone that will take some time to explain.

One point: the spontaneous self is the healer. Tell Ruburt that. (Pause.) I will now then close our session, and leave you, I hope, in anticipation for our next.
