“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(A nap after lunch seemed to restore Jane to a “workable state,” as she put it. Naturally we wondered what, if anything, Seth might say about the experience. I also read to Jane just before the session two questions I had written out recently for Seth’s consideration.)

Now. There is some instability of elements this evening, having to do with a natural, overall change taking place in Ruburt—a beneficial one, I add hastily (humorously); but his system is in a state of change.

Now. Ruburt is always under my protection in his out-of-body experiments. There is nothing to prevent his seeing me on such occasions but his own attitude, as I have said before. He progresses at a natural rate however, at his own rate. He will not overdo, for in this his ego is an aid and it will see to it that over-exertion does not occur. When experiments fail this is usually the reason, and also the reason for the rhythmic effect.

You feel that all of your energy must go into the painting at hand. In this way you also close the door unknowingly to additional energy and refreshment (pause), to some extent (underlined). You cannot close one creative door without closing all of them to some degree. I qualified this statement twice on purpose, for naturally your main focus is to be your painting.

However, dedicated psychic exploration of such a nature always brings with it increased intuitional powers, and new energy and a spiritual understanding that can be used then in any creative endeavor. The two go well hand in hand. Understanding these reasons should help you therefore.
