“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Your enthusiasm is excellent. However, your enthusiasm can cause waves that can go up and down. You want a quiet surface. It would help you if before bed you imagine your mind like an ocean upon which you could walk. All feelings are on the waters, you are above. Then imagine yourself walking on the water, listening with your inner ear and using inner eyes. You should hear voices and see a figure on the horizon... let the figure come closer... Do not run. Relax and let the figure come to you.

When the figure comes closer let him speak first. You are then using your own enthusiasm and are in control of it. If you develop properly you will understand when the figure speaks. The figure is a person you have known who will help you in your own endeavors... It will not appear until you are ready... Your own abilities must be developed enough so that the meeting takes place.

(Here, speaking rapidly, Seth went to some pains to emphasize to Tam the importance of the individual being in full control of his abilities, letting them develop slowly and naturally at all times so that the individual would feel at ease with them. He used the speeding-car analogy to hammer home the point.)

You can automatically choose good friends through the use of your abilities... Don’t bother now with thoughts of the origins of your abilities... Avoid cultism. Also don’t let your imagination follow along the lines of possession... Fear of this creates a state in which a semblance of that can be caused. Most cases of possession are not caused by spirits... although it does exist in those terms... usually caused by those who request it or are too lazy to live their own lives within ... Such people then issue a blank invite to control the body they no longer wish to control.
