“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now. As to your remarks of a few moments past: I always knew what I was up to in class.

In the past because of Ruburt’s own difficulties, I merely hinted at future developments. I will tell you now however that within our own framework of sessions, and with what I call contact sessions with others, other books will materialize. There will be several in which the basic principles will be given simply, directly, with many examples to the ordinary man and woman.

Now. Individuals within your system have difficulty relating to those with whom they do not have some fairly strong bond, either of common experience, general beliefs, cultural similarities—the list is endless.

(Long pause.) Now, our friend Aerofranz (Tam Mossman, of Prentice-Hall) is indeed progressing. (Small smile.) The extent and potential of his healing abilities are considerable. It is therefore all the more important that he always try (pause), to use discipline and caution, that he think in terms of helping other individuals, and that he not glorify his own position egotistically, thinking, “Since I can heal you, I am therefore superior to you,” even though the idea is partially hidden from his own consciousness, and even though he feels kindly—put in here that I smiled—while feeling so superior.

Now. Our friend (Tam) is in contact with another layer of his personality, and as I told him over the infernal machine (a humorous reference to the telephone), a dependable layer. This is an advancement.

I would like him to keep Ruburt informed. I do not suggest that he do such writing (automatic writing) more than twice a week for now at the most, however. Ability always demands responsibility. I know that he knows this, and I do indeed commend him. I do not want his abilities to run away with him however.

Now I give our friend my most fond wishes, and I enjoyed, in quotes, our “mechanical” communication. He must also make sure of the integrity of his motives, and learn to recognize his own motives. This is not to imply that he does not, but it is a necessity for any personality who is working with psychic activity of this kind.

Now give me a moment. (Pause.)

Because if I tell you now the spontaneity could be interrupted. As it is you have no real conscious conception in any meaningful way of what I will tell you; and yet you are using intuitional and emotional depths that you have not allowed yourself to use before, and I will tell you, when you are finished, the reasons.

(“I will.” Meaning that as soon as I finished the painting I would be after Seth for the information. I felt that by insisting I could get the data now, but decided to wait.

Now, I will be glad to set up for you a definite program, geared to you specifically, toward the release and use of your psychic abilities whenever you are ready to take some session time to do so.
