“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.

The whole body of the material, by the time that we are done, will speak in various ways to various types of individuals who may not be able to speak to each other. Ruburt becomes intellectually scandalized when I speak simply. I have no need to worry about my intellectual superiority. I am perfectly free to communicate what should be communicated. He is however still at the stage where he takes pleasure in intellectual superiority, and somewhat looks down upon those who are not so intellectually gifted. (Amused.) A common-enough failing.

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.

One book will deal primarily with metaphysical realities, and will be designed for those more intellectually gifted. The audience for that particular book may be somewhat more limited, but it will be a fascinating endeavor; and in it I will hope to present a multidimensional theory of morality for those too sophisticated to accept any longer outdated concepts concerning the God concept.

It is from the bank of knowledge then that I can relate to others, and they realize intuitively that on such occasions I am not speaking down to them. Impediments do not get in my way, for I do not throw up impediments of that kind. I do not throw up distortions of my own making, and therefore misinterpret the reactions of others. When I speak to them I am thinking of them, and to some extent I can indeed enter into their psychological reality. Therefore I can phrase what I want to say in a way that is highly meaningful to them.

There will be several books that simply result from our sessions, beside those that will be specifically dictated. There will be books of Ruburt’s own as his personality grows and evolves and correlates what it has learned and will learn. There will be developments in your own painting that will follow naturally, and sometimes directly (underlined) from our sessions.

You are doing well. I see paintings that you will produce. (Smile, eyes closed.) What I have told you this evening should also help you understand the use that emotion can have in your work, and its value. And when you are finished with the large painting, I will tell you something about it that you may perhaps realize subconsciously. (Smile.) And I should say no more.

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.

(A note: After the session Jane told me that she knew what Seth was going to tell me when I had finished the painting under discussion. I asked Jane just how she knew this; was Seth telling me one thing, and Jane another; did Jane divine the information from Seth as he spoke through her, or what? We can learn more about this later; this is the first time we have been aware of information being given and received in just this manner, though it may have happened before. But as Seth told me about the painting Jane knew what he was to tell me.)

Then we have an appointment, at three in the morning. Give yourself the suggestion before you sleep that you will remember what happens, and that even while sleeping you will be alert to my presence, and ready to follow my directions. Also, tell yourself that you will be enriched immensely by a memory of the encounter and the journey, and use those words.
