“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now Van Over, in answer to your question, was telepathically aware of Bernard’s letter, and understood it. He does have abilities. He is aware of them to some degree. However he does not utilize them, and does not realize their import.

All That Is is itself evolving. It is not aware of all of its own purposes, for some of these are ever new. In some respects therefore, there are no cut and dried answers. As far as your own system is concerned, I have told you that the past ever changes, and here we enter the realm of probabilities; for at any point in any man’s life, where a decision was made, the other probable alternative actions were also taken.

(9:34. Jane’s trance was a good one, but she came out of it rather easily, while yawning quite a bit. The above paragraph refers to Pat Norelli in Boston; she telephoned Jane earlier this evening.

(During break I wondered aloud if Seth’s entity, the larger Seth personality, was listening in on Seth’s data, to pick it up effortlessly as it was being given.

(Just before break ended Jane said: “Seth was gone during break, but he just came back; I can feel him. I felt him return. I’ll bet he went to Boston.” Resume at 9:44.)

Now. Ruburt’s dream was a legitimate experience. He has helped Miss Callahan in the past in the same manner, but was not able to recall the experience.

(Jane very recently had an experience while sleeping, in which she was helping Miss Callahan. Miss Callahan, deceased, did not know yet that she was dead, and Jane was explaining the situation to her. Her apartment was next to ours.)

I was indeed at your friend’s during your rest period, and I will check in again still later this evening. Give us a moment.

The self that stabbed you in the back was the self negatively (underlined)developed in this life’s early existence. It tried to stab you in the back, and did so, but you were able to retaliate and to slay your would-be assassin.

Notice however that the knife used could have been a more dangerous, lethal one, for that self did not really want to kill you. It was simply a portion of you, formed by negative inferences, that became an unwitting enemy of the self you had become. When it was slain it gained freedom, for the negative elements were released from their compulsions, and the ritualized behavior that was symbolized by the formal clothing of your dream.

The historical context was simply meant to represent the past in this particular life however, and Ruburt was your ally. The emotional freedom that you have recently shown with Ruburt also results from mastery in larger terms of that conflict. That freedom called for Ruburt’s spontaneity even as Ruburt’s now-releasing spontaneity helped you in the conflict.

Ruburt’s interpretation of the other dream was correct, and represented intuitional knowledge. You knew this. The emotional warmth sparking now between you is of great therapeutic value physically on Ruburt’s part, psychically and spiritually on both of your parts, and even for you supportive in a physical manner. It is also tied up with the fact that you are now beginning to remember your dreams once again.
